Comments Thread For: WBA: Rigondeaux Will Be Stripped After Loss To Lomachenko!

[slimPickings]

I hate to think Rigo has absolutely no recourse even through legal means.

Surely the alphabet soups cannot be a law on to themselves.

Or is Rigo just surrounded by a bunch of idi0ts who do not know how to protect his interests.

I am pretty sure it is possible that a step aside money could have been given to the mandatory to allow Rigo to handle his side business and then come back down to take care of the mandatory/

Something just does not add up. AT ALL!!

Kell Brooks fights and looses against GGG and them comes back to defend against Spence.

Why would Rigo's case be different.

One again he is probably surrounded by a bunch of IDI0TS!!!!

And the hits just keep on comin’. Actually, this was threatened before the Lomo fight. It was expected. Poor Rigo is just toast. His rep is tarnished; people have turned against him; his belt is stripped; and he’s just too old to start over. I really, truly feel for him. I didn’t like the idea of a Lomachenko fight from the start, but it’s turning out to be a real nightmare for Guillermo.

Hate say it I agree 100% with everything you stated. His name is mud now. He's to good to be a gatekeeper for the up and comers and very few unlike Loma will look good against him. Hope that $400K was worth it.

Unfortunately that can and will get away with it. I read the WBA rules and regulations and it clearly states they can (If choose to lol) strip a fighter if they lose even at a higher weight...

Pretty ****ty thing to do, but the alphabets are terrible.

He should try to fight a string of bums in the next few months and get some momentum going.

Maybe he should look at 126.

Two divisions is a good thing.

There are still a lot of guys he can beat out there.

LET'S HEAR It FOR RID**** BOWE!

All these orgs don't benefit boxing whatsoever. They may have been useful as a yardstick decades ago, but now they're defunct and just a massive hindrance in the way of fights fans actually want to see.

Rigo probably retires soon.

Stripped. Lost biggest fight of career embarrassingly. Surrounded by idiots. Legal battles. 37 is a tough age to have to build yourself up again and let’s face it, we’ve just seen the type of heart he has...

Wouldn’t be shocked to see him leave the game soon.

[paulf]

That's absurd. If he can still meet his obligations there's no reason for him to be stripped. Shameful.

WBA is a joke anyway.
