Comments Thread For: Arum: Team Rigondeaux Never Made Contact For Lomachenko

[RetroSpeed05]

SMH....Rigo & loma have the same level of opponents, similar amateur background & bring in the same attraction. The only difference is that loma is the bigger man & Rigo agreed publicly NO EXCUSES...so there is no way in hell you can tell me loma deserves more. That pie splits even. Peace.

He deserves more because his manger got a great deal with top rank. They are willing to give him that, whos willing to give Rigo money? Oh that's right no one, he either excepts or goes into the sunset fighting bums his final years to be forgotten about.

You have a hell of a lot to learn. Lom has better management and far better promotion behind him. Rigo has been badly managed for years. Rigo fights on undercards, Lom fights in main events. A fighters worth has to do with the clout behind them. Lom can work his way into bigger figthts, Rigo's team cannot make any demands unless they are fighting lessor known fighters or if they are mandatory to a shot and even then, there is no guarantee. Regardless of how great Rigo is, it is what it is.

No. Both promoters put in half then split the pie, there is no A-side in this match up. It's an excellent fight that should be made ASAP....

That is not how promotion works. There is always a lead promoter who assumes the financial risk. They are the ones who book a venue, gets licensing, cut the checks, and submit the contracts.

It has never been done any other way. If fighters signed to different promotions fight, the ones not dishing out the moola only get their name as a secondary, and take care of their own fighters requirements while taking their cut of their own fighters purse.

How old are you??? 12 years old?? I've been watching boxing over 25 years which is long before you were getting your diapers changed. Only a 12 year old would say something as immature as You Scared. I'm dealing with a child here! No one wouldnt want to see a Lom/Rigo fight but you somehow cant grasp the business side. Why do you think Rigo who is way more talented than than Arturo Gatti was and cannot command 10% the audience OR money Gatti did? Think about that a while.

[PensionKiller]

Yeah, he just lied right there. So either they contacted you or they didn't. Or you're just pulling that 5 mil crap out of your behind. Why would Rigo be concerned with the money anyway, his promoter Roc Nation should be used to overpaying guys with not much of a fan base. They are the ones that have to worry about his purse

Rigo earned 150k for his last fight. He needs to get paid now than that

[PensionKiller]

Rigo didn't ask for 5 mil you idiots. Bob is just giving an example.

Rigo team offering Loma how much to fight?

Regardless it's an excellent fight that can be made but boby is synchronized to not negotiate with Rigo. & to sabotage Rigo.

Old enough to have all the experience you don't have.....loma can't get 10% of the audience OR money Gatti did either so you make NO point. So stop with the excuses. Peace.
