Mr. Frampton has some decisions to make

[denilson200]

The Wba has given him until July 27 to agree on a fight with Rigo. He obviously inherited Quiggs mandatory.

Maybe Scott threw the fight knowing he would have to face Rigo.

It cracks me up that Barry suggests its not a tv friendly fight given what we just witnessed and that its essentially to difficult a style. FFS man what’s the point?

Carl also must defend his IBF trinket against Shingo Wake.

And of course there is Santa Cruz @126.


You gotta go with Rigo. You can’t refuse to fight the guy because he's too good and simply use semantics like boring to get away with it. That’s pretzel logic given Floyd Mayweather.

How Frampton, Quigg and pretty much all world champions from Bantam to Featherweight look when you mention Rigo's name



It's getting really embarrassing.

Man up and just the fight the fucker

If I was Roc Nation. I would've had Rigo sitting ringside at the Frampton Quigg match and I would've had him get in the ring after the result (A-la what Tyson Fury done in the Wilder Szpilka fight)

But then again that might not have worked for Rigo because he's very shy and doesn't speak fluent English but I would've had him in the ring at the very least.

I understand that Rigo is somewhat polarizing.

He's cuban and he has a negative backfoot style (Not boring because he goes for the kill when he gets his man in trouble)

I think Rigondeaux was punished for beating money maker Donaire and picking him apart. They didn't want him to win that fight. That was the start of his blackballing. The suits wanted Donaire to win and they also have general contempt for him (as well as contempt over his victory).

Put Rigo in against an aggressor like Donaire and he shines. Put him in against a defensive guy and the fight will be a chess-match. Simply speaking Rigo is a nightmare to come up against.

But I love how Rigo always gets blamed for his fights being "boring." I mean, his opponents could always sell out, then get KTFO. But they always seem pretty content to stay at a safe distance being occasionally jabbed and pot-shotted to a UD loss. Still can't figure out how that's Rigo's fault
