Rigondeaux to fight Sod Kokietgym this weekend in Macoa

[ruthless rocco]

Never heard of any of them...

Sod will put up a good effort, though he hasn't been quite the same since Superman 2.

Lol I remembered the name and sure enough.. THis is the same Sod who was blitzed in the first round against Ponce De Leon in 2006 It was on the undercard to Mosley-Vargas, wicked KO. Guy is 37 now and has been feeding on club fighters since that KO it seems, what an awful mismatch.

I almost feel sorry for Rigondeaux, after beating Donaire convincingly and completely shutting out Agbeko he still has to go looking for fights and take what he can get.
Maybe the Chinese will appreciate his boxing style and lay down some money for big fights.
Rigo is just not a big draw in the USA.

On a hit and not get hit basis you can make a case for Rigondeaux currently being pound for pound number one. This is the last fight on his current contract. Promoters should be queuing up to sign him.

And yet.

Arum says he has to look exciting in this fight, change his style and entertain or he isn't getting offered a new contract. And even if he is offered a new contract it won't be for the same kind of money as his last one.

And if Arum won't sign him will Golden Boy want him? The last thing they want is to match him with Santa Cruz who has the ability to sell a lot of tickets and be in a lot of exciting fights in the future. Getting shut out by Rigo puts a big damper on his career.

Now I've said this watch Haymon sign him. But which of his existing fighters would Haymon match him with and why? ( I think Santa Cruz is GBP and Haymon.) And who would buy the fight?

This fight should make Rigo look good. Sod will come to fight unlike Agbeko meaning Rigo will land and stop him. Rigo just needs to be matches against vertain types of fighters and he will sell tickets.

GBP will sign him and match him against Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz will get the 117-111 card and hand Rigo he's first loss
