    That's what he's doing. Donaire has 3 fights at 122.

    1. vacant WBO title. W over #1 contender & previous titlist Vazquez Jr.
    2. IBF title. W over Mathebula.
    3. the real WBC title, the real #1 in the division. W over Nishioka.

    You aren't ducking Rigo if you're fighting someone leagues better and more proven in Nishioka. And no one thinks that is even a good win, based on reception on ESB. THAT is what pisses me off with these dumbasses.

    Far, far from it.

    I've never said I don't want the fight. I think Donaire should fight him next. I only respond to the wild things I read on ESB which I find flat out Victor Ortiz.

    Maybe rigo should act like Donaire and accused agebko of not fighting anyone.

    Rigo only has 11 fights, so I wouldn't expect to have too many notable wins. He seems to want to add another one to his list, but Donaire and his fans don't want Donaire to be the one.

    He would get plenty of credit for beating Rigo. Everyone in boxing ranks Rigo very highly.

    Donaire got credit for Nishioka. Donaire seemed to move up the p4p ranking with that win on some people's list.

    I think he should stay at 122. I don't care too much for division jumping, especially since he's already done that plenty already. I'd rather he stay and make a case as one of the ATG/GOAT 122 pounders. Plus, I don't think he'll be as dominant the higher he goes...

    All the hate against a boxer that everything he's asking its to fight the best.
    He fights in the meantime whoever his manager and promoter can get. He keeps yelling he fights anybody , not only Donaire. And still some ****ers in this forum questioning him.
    Does he has a glass jaw? Who the **** cares? Why doesn't anybody step to shatter that jaw?, his résumé or 11 fights is beyond good.

    As the previous poster pointed out. I seriously doubt Mares would be able to fight Donaire due to Bob Arum vs GBP. I would be happy if he fight Mares, Moreno or Rigo. I think Rigo is the toughest challenge at 122 for Donaire. I have no desire to see other for Donaire at 122.

    That's a exaggeration and NO it means absolutely nothing. This is pro boxing.

    Donaire has plenty of relevant opponents.

    A belt? Ok..... but how much do belts really mean? Everyone shits on these orgs esp the WBA until it fits their agenda.

    I'm not against it I'd just like Rigo to fight a top fighter first before the fight happens.

    He's suppose to fight in Dec on the Pac undercard, yes? Fight a top ELITE CHAMPIONSHIP LEVEL opponent then fight Donaire next year.

    That's all it takes. Why are Rigo fans so ok with him fighting ESPN level fighters and prospects that already have loses to journeymen?

    Rigo said in his last interview that he was was not impressed with Donaire's performance against Nishioka but Rigo himself looked like crap against Marroquin (prospect) winning a UD and was tagged and that jaw will shatter soon.

    Leagues better even you don't believe that!! More proven - yes.

    Do i blame Nonito for not fighting Rigo - Hell No. It is a very high risk low reward fight.Unfortunately Rigo doesn't either a big fan base or a really exciting style (for non-hardcore boxers).

    Finally, do i think we will see the fight? Nope, Arum won't let it happen and Nonito will prob have 1 more fight at 122 lbs and move up weights
