Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux-Flores Immediate Rematch Ordered By WBA

Uh sorry, but calling 10000% bull**** on this.

Nothing is ever clear from 1st round in any fight. Ever. Save your arguments. EVER.
Flores was jabbing well, and they were brawling at the end of the fight. That's not Rigo's game.

And you have to be a completely blind fanboy to call this a "mismatch that shouldn't have ever been licensed". Save those types of comments for Ward-Brand or Ramirez-Bursak.

You actually think he had anything for Rigo? I have never seen Rigo look more comfortable than against this slow as molasses unskilled fighter.

This is the moment of Truth. If Rigo is serious about chasing big fights, he will drop that belt and move up. If he stays for that rematch? Well you know the rest.

Know the rest? Like accepting to move to 130 for loma?? So then why did team loma reject Rigo. & have loma fighting a dude coming off a loss???

I do think the fight should have been a NC. To be honest, Rigo is lucky it wasn't a DQ. Those punches were very very late but i don't think it was totally intentional either. Nobody seemed to have a clue what was going on, mostly the ref. If the ref was a bit more aware, there's a chance he could have DQ'd Rigo. I think the fact there was so much confusion has lead it to becoming a NC.

That said, i'm not exactly interested in seeing the rematch at all but i think it's fair that it happens.
