    Who says Rigo doesn't want to rematch Cordoba? He's calling anybody who wants to fight him...have you heard cordoba saying anything ?
    Curious how the *******s and canelotards are cruising together on their anticuban crusade.
    Guess what; everyone who cares about a good boxing match is screaming for Rigo vs Nonito .From the press to the fans.Im not afraid of Rigo losing the fight...are *******s(donairetards)afraid?...canelotards are another story,it's just the hate of seen their idol fighting light welters.

    Kid Cubano...its all part of the smack. I got nothing but respect for Cubans, their fans and their boxers.

    We just want to prove to the world, who are the best island boxers..:yep

    Rigo should fight on ESPN again to prove to the world that he's HBO worthy..:yep

    Not going to bring Canelo completly into the thread but let me just make a point regarding Canelo and Donaire.

    They are both world champs! They should fight the best. As soon as you win a title its no more easy comp or building up for the top dogs. You are one of the top dogs and you need to take care of worthy challangers that challange you for your title. C'mon man Canelo is supposed to be the real deal, has like 40 fights but still needs to warm up and gain more experience by fighting a jr welterweight. Dude, please, Donaire and Canelo are excellant fighters i can not deny that, but they are world champs and they should not avoid the fights people want to see.

    You dont think his last few fights were entertaining?? I know the Ramos fight was low action for a long time , but that is mainly becuase Ramos literally REFUSED to throw punches.

    Rig is a great tactical fighter and a great technician in the ring....however....if Nonito and Rig fight.....I give Nonito the edge. He's faster and more powerful......Rig is better defensively, but speed and timing combined would help Nonito pull out a close decison...

    He has actually fought on 2 ppv cards already,Manny Pacquiao to be more exact,he stole the show on the last one...and heading to his 3rd ppv on sept 15.(In only 10 fights).Nonito was fighting under a mango tree at his 10 fight.
    how many ppl showed up to watch Nonito vs Mathebula again? i heard they had more than 25 000 seats ready and less than 3000 came to watch.Pitty.:lol:

    He fought at Mandalay Bay with the Montiel fight...

    That did a bit more or less 7 to 10,000.

    Like I said, Bring a Rigo crowd to Vegas, Cubans don't travel well. I seen Lara and Gamboa twice at Buffalo Bill's in Primm, not even close to a sell out and those who DID go, got free comps to get in if you're a NV resident.
