Comments Thread For: Hopkins: Rigondeaux is 90% Done, May Quit Again in Future

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

It’s usually only talked about when it’s Haymon fighters involved but who did the testing for this fight?

[MisanthropicNY]

Quitondeaux proved he has no heart. His claim to fame was beating a hype job and going undefeated against truck drivers in Japan (while also getting dropped with jabs)...

Loma is the new lb for lb king. All hail.

Rigo’s done, man. He’s a 37 year old fighter in the lower divisions. It could very well be that age was an even greater factor than size in the Lomo fight. He probably still has enough left to handle inferior opposition, but who wants to see that? Sad that this once-great fighter went out like that. I didn’t expect him to win, but I expected so much more.

[Mammoth]

I wonder if anybody at 122 would try him now? Or can they just say they don't need to since he quit?

[MrClutch85]

Rigo will go back down to 122 and he will be fine

Hopkins got knocked out of the ring literally his last time out and he wants to talk about Rigo lol hahaha!! Rigo did mess up by quitting but Hekk he couldn't get anybody in his own weight class to fight him. This might open doors for Rigo at 122 other big named fighters may not be scared of him anymore and they may feel they can make him quit as well, so he might possibly have more opportunities now that he's been defeated. So that loss may be embarrassing now but he has a chance to redeem himself.

He also left the ring against Robert Allen and could not continue.
Didn't Hopkins also fake an injury in the Dawson fight to get out of the fight, and he did.

So Hopkins in my opinion has quit 3 times and he never quit against a p4p fighter either.

Rigondeaux was done when he upset the apple cart and beat Donaire. I remember when he fought Agbeko after and only like 4 people stayed in the arena to watch the fight.

[richardt]

He is going to want to redeem himself and should and I think he wants to stash a little more money for his retirement but the money he makes may be very little. I think he will fight a few more fights and then call it a day.

Hopkins faked getting knocked out of the ****ING ring and landing on his gigantic head vs Joe Smith. Worst acting I have ever seen, he wanted a way out of the fight and basically quit, but in his case he literally wanted 'out'.

smh Hopkins is a quitter. For shame, for shame.
