Comments Thread For: Lomachenko vs. Rigondeaux is Close To Sold Out!

[j.razor]

Don't ever disrespect The Bobfather like that. He's the greatest boxing promoter of all time. Nobody would even be watching Rigondeaux if it wasn't for Bob. The same goes for Pacquiao. He made these guys and built them from the ground up.

You mean hyped them up.....

No. rigo needed to be more offensive. fans aren't interested in his safety first style. its his fighting style. he was never going to be a superstar.

That's Rigo throws punches, you just out what bob arum said just to discredit Rigo.

Lomas footwork will win this fight.

arum was the one talking $h1t after he beat up donaire. All the names around Rigondeaux weight ran from him or used the excuse that Guillermo was boring. They just went with arums comments... frampton, quigg, mares, st+, they all ran away from the Cuban, Can you imagine if all those fighters would have grown a pair and fought the "Chacal"? By the way he didn't say no, he offered a catch weight or a hydration clause.

Ok, and how long ago was that? Hasn't he been with other parties since then? What have they accomplished? What's the one common denominator here besides Rigo himself "Caribe" but its just easier to shh on Arum for a quote when in fact Caribe has been called a nightmare to work with for more than just Rigondeaux. He signed a James Brown deal with them and it ****d his career up, simple as that. A quote from Arum does not make or break your career especially when he's not been your promoter this long.

FALSE

You really be missing the point huh.....

false..There.

It's right here on Boxing Scene Updated at 06:31 PM EDT, Sun Jun 25, 2017 Klimas "When Lomachenko was fighting at 126 and was a champion at 126, the offer was put on the table to fight but then they didn't fight. I believe even two times it was offered to Rigondeaux to fight Lomachenko at 126,"

We can either go by what people who negotiate fights say or we can go by what two random fans have to say..if those are my choices i'm going to side with the man who makes the offers...sorry.

FALSE

Despite him admitting on twitter and on youtube that he said so?

Was Rigo lying about himself rejecting the fight? Not sure why he would.

[chrisJS]

Anyway, good to see these guys sell out the venue. Loma sold out the Microsoft theater here in august and the MGM in D.C in April. He's gradually building an audience.

I'm making the trek to NYC for this one. Never a bad reason to go to NYC.

Shoulda put the fight in the big boy room then

who else wants to fight Rigondeaux? Only bums that want a pay day. Just tell me who is being asking for Rigondeaux?
