    Maybe Riglassdeaux knows about his chin problems and was asking extra to have it all put together by a doctor after wards, Can't blame him but it is a business.

    :deal

    I'd like to know the numbers. It's a common trick to offer someone **** all and when they rightly refuse the "offer" the fighter claims he priced himself out. It's just difficult to believe Rigo would refuse any reasonable offer for the chance to beat the star of the division.

    Forget about the nicknames, it's probably true. Donaire has 36 minutes to work with, does rigondeaux feel he can fight a flawless fight? Probably not. He's gonna get touched and put down. Book it.

    Arum has him well versed. He sounds like a promoter. Sad situation cuz I enjoy watching Donaire fight. But he sounds like a **** in this video.

    Then why hasn't Rigo fought any top fighters? Seems like he;s feasting on bums waiting for a payday.

    I don't see how Rigo can price himself out, they have the same promoter and Rigo made peanuts so far in his career. It doesnt make sense that Rigo priced himself out.

    Donaire also said in this video that Moreno priced himself out "The guy from Panama".

    This sounds crazy too me. Why would Rigo price himself out?

    Maybe because he made peanuts his whole career and now he wants to be George Washington Carver.

    Rigo should be happy to take this fight for 250k. He probably wants a million or more.

    Theoretically yes. Lots of defensive fighters have a history of pricing themselves out of big fights and then claiming that people are ducking them afterward though (Winky Wright did this repeatedly throughout his career.) It wouldn't surprise me if Rigondeux priced himself out. Guys like Calzaghe (to avoid fighting Jones in the 90s) and Kirkland (with regards to Canelo now) have also priced themselves out. People probably price themselves out when they feel a loss would be detrimental to their career, don't want to risk that, but also don't want to actually admit that.

    What sounds crazy to me is everyone thinking Rigo is some god and would never do such a thing. WTF this guy has you guys brainwashed. There is a reason he hasn;'t fought a decent opponent since Corboda and it's because he doesn;t want to risk losing his 0 and a payday..... Sadly for him the playday wasn't big enough for him to risk his 0.

    Rigo vs Kennedy 2 make it happen it's the fight the fans want to see.
