Caribe Promotions: Rigondeaux will fight Donaire in March or anytime, even in China

nonito donaire guillermo rigondeaux By Dan Ambrose: Caribe Promotions, the co-promoters for WBA World super bantamweight champion Guillermo Rigondeaux (11-0, 8 KO’s), says that they are ready to match Rigondeaux against WBO super bantamweight champion Nonito Donaire in March or whatever month that Donaire wants the fight. They’re not saying no to any month; they just want the fight with Donaire.

Caribe Promotions said on their twitter “Nonito talks a lot, and talks a lot about Rigondeaux. Rigondeux asks ‘when is Nonito ready to fight? Nonito, talk, talk, talk. Nonito vs. Rigondeux in March. Nonito didn’t confirm. And now he’s talking. Rigondeaux is ready. Nonito wants to fight in China. I confirm that Rigondeaux is ready, and we are ready for China.”

That sure sounds like they’re ready to match Rigondeaux with Donaire. The question now is whether Donaire himself or his promoter Bob Arum is willing to face Rigondeaux? Donaire has had plenty of chances in the past, but he instead has chosen older fighters that are past their prime like Toshiaki Nishioka and Jorge Arce. Donaire even said that he thought Nishioka was the best super bantamweight fighter in the entire division. It didn’t look like that.

Donaire choosing the 36-year-old Nishioka instead of Rigondeaux, and then saying how Nishioka is the best in the division, has given some boxing fans the impression that Donaire is dodging the fight with Rigondeaux.

From the way Caribe Promotions is talking it doesn’t seem like a problem for them to agree to any date or location that Donaire wants. From the sounds of they’re willing to fight him no matter what month he chooses or location. If they’re willing to travel to China to fight Donaire then that suggests that they’ll face anywhere. These guys really want the fight.

It’s going to look bad if Donaire chooses not to fight Rigondeaux next and instead faces one of his beatable contenders. Donaire wants to fight WBC super bantamweight champion Aber Mares, but that fight doesn’t look like it’s doable for the time being due to the fighters working for different promotional companies. With that fight not available, the next best fight for Donaire is Rigondeaux and I don’t understand why he wouldn’t take that fight if Rigondeaux is willing to fight anytime and anywhere he wants.

Caballete Combo

Rigo a Donaire: “Quiero pelear contra ti”
Donaire a Rigo: “Tu estilo es muy aburrido y me va a ser lucir mal ante mis fanaticos, como Narvaez. Gamboa es una pelea que yo quisiera tener, ese es el tipo de pelea que yo quiero”.

Rigo a Donaire: “¿Me tienes miedo?”
Donaire a Rigo: “Te peleo cuando sea, pero no estas a mi nivel”

Rigo a Donaire: “Vamos a pelear de una vez y por todas”
Donaire a Rigo: “Tu fanaticada no es suficiente, tienes que tener mas fanaticos”

Rigo a Donaire: “No hables tanto y pelea conmigo, que te voy a noquear”
Donaire a Rigo: “No tienes mi nivel, necesitas pelear con otros para ver si logras mejorar tu boxeo”. Mathebula es un campeon solido y tiene buena fanaticada.

Rigo a Donaire: “No me huyas mas y pelea”
Donaire a Rigo: “Yo te respeto, pero no es el momento”. Nishioka es el mejor de la division y me dara pelea.

Donaire: “Yo no le pedire a ninguno de mis rivales que se haga examenes. Yo no necesito eso”.

Rigo a Montanocordoba : “Este lo que me tiene es tremendo miedo, un s*** lo que es”
Montanocordoba a Rigo: “Oeee asere, que eso no se dice.”

Rigo a Arum: “Para yo firmar contigo de nuevo tienes que ponerme a Nonito este 2013”
Arum a Rigo: “...”

Rigo a Donaire: “Deja de pelear con viejos y rivales faciles y tirate conmigo”
Donaire: “Peleo con el que me pongan: Mares, Rigondeaux, cualquiera”

Rigo a Donaire: “Pero entonces ven y fajate conmigo”
Donaire a Rigo: “Tienes que esperar tu turno”. Arce es un gran guerrero y su estilo va a ser muy interesante para el publico y es un rival muy dificil.

Rigo a Donaire: “¿Nonito pelearemos entonces o no?”
Donaire a Rigo: “Despues que tu preparador fisico insulto a una mujer de mi equipo, no mereces que yo pelee contigo”

Rigo a Donaire: “Ven aca, ¿no querias pelear con Gamboa?”
Donaire a Rigo: “...”

Rigo a Donaire: “Vístete de hombre alguna vez y pelea conmigo”.
Nonito a Rigo: “Para yo pelear contigo tienes que hacerte pruebas olimpicas primero”. Ah y para yo pelear contigo tendras que ir a China tambien.


Rigondeaux a Donaire: COMPADRE, TE PELEO A MANO LIMPIA, TU CON GUANTES DE HIERRO Y SI QUIERES HASTA DESCALZO VOY, PERO ACABA DE VESTIRTE DE HOMBRE COÑO!!!!

[I Love Jesus!]

Donaire is pretty good. This is like another mayweather situation where he has a good chance of winning but is to scared to take the risk i guess.

i really like donaire but if he ducks rigo and mares it's can't be forgiven.

That would mean more if it was TR.....

Is all that for real??????

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Is all that for real??????

Too bad Caribe has no paper with Rigo. They are out....

[bojangles1987]

Well, there you go. Do it Nonito.

Caribe is not a part of the negotiations and cannot speak for Rigo's availability or lack of availability - Caribe ONLY has a contract for revenue sharing, that is all. Top Rank is the dictator for both Donaire and Rigo. THINK ABOUT IT!!! If Caribe had any real information, he would not be stuck in Tweets talking Heresay, he would be right there with members of Top Rank bringing out REAL information!! All he is is a guy who gets revenue IF those two fight......he cannot promote a fight that does not exist yet. Top Rank makes money if Donaire fights Rigo, Mares, or someone else, Caribe does not.

Caribe only makes money on Rigo so Caribe is circling around in his own Swill like he is in a washing machine and detached from the negotiations. He cannot speak on Arum's behalf and say that Rigo is or is not available because ARUM controls who Rigo fights, when and where, not Caribe. If Arum signals that the fight is on, Caribe can step into action and co-promote. Till then, he is like a little bird waiting for mommy bird to feed him a worm.
