Never gonna happen

How much they offer Salido around 600k? If they offer less than that it's a duck.

Considering Rigo got paid $110K in his last fight, $500K would be a more than fair offer lol. He hasn't gotten anything close to that since the Donaire fight.

Salido was in a position of power, because he holds a win over him so he was able to demand way more money than he's worth.

Rigo is not in that position. He has no leverage at all, because he can't even get fights anymore unless Roc Nation gets on their knees and begs HBO to showcase him.

He should take the offer that's on the table. If he's serious. If he thinks he's getting 50/50 or over $1M, then he's the one that's ducking.

Rigondeaux deserves more than Salido if anything. He's an A level fighter. You backing that he should be lowballed shows you're a biased nuthugger. Salido got 50k or some **** in his last fight. Didn't they offer Walters 550k too? But Rigo should accept anything? GTFOH you moron.

"He's an A Level fighter" So?

When has that ever been a criteria? If he's so great, why did he only get $110K to fight Flores on a PPV undercard? lol

Low Balling would be offering him less than he got paid in his last fight.

Rigo is moving up in weight, and thus is being compensated for it. By making 5x more than he made in his last fight.

Again, one team is actually making an offer. If they want the fight to get made, it can easily be made by Rigo agreeing and signing the contract.

My guess is that Rigo is probably holding out for Donaire type money, and he's never going to see that again. So thus, he's the one that's ducking the fight.

So you know how much has been offered now? You just said he should accept anything. Salido isn't a bigger draw than Rigo. Rigo is the biggest fight for Lomachenko, it's the fight boxing fans want, it's the fight that could legitimise Lomachenko as a P4P fighter. **** yes he deserves the same as Salido. You're a ******.

I hope this fight does get made. That is all.

Has Rigondoux contacted his promoter Roc yet?
Or he and his tweeting pals just love tweeting?

[rrayvez]

Casuals may not care about this fight but I can't think of any 2 opponents today that would bring in a better combined skill level than these two. And it's not like Santa Cruz, Frampton, or mares were going to go anywhere near rigo so why not

[sammybee]

this is the fight I have been yearning for.. make it happen

[BoxingIsGreat]

I like to see Loma move up to 140 and fight Crawford.
