    Such bs

    These guys should get no passes

    No more excuses

    They need to start boxing eachother, no other fights should be accepted period

    This is whats wrong with boxing, promoters can protect their fighters

    Rigondeaux is not to blame for any of that. He's the man at the weight and nobody wants to step up and challenge him.

    More irritating is that there are a number of REALLY good contenders getting over-looked. Servania, Pagara, Galahad and Wake for example

    It isn't Rigondeaux's fault. Arum already tried to keep Donaire away from him, and when he finally matched them together, Rigs gave Donaire the pumpkin face. Rigs has even tough guys like Agbeko scared to throw punches in fear of getting countered. He went to Japan and gave a Japanese junior Welter the pumpkin face also. He is brutalizing guys one shot at a time. There is no way in hell Haymon would let Senorita Cruz get in the ring with him, so Cruz moved up to 126. Frampton and Quigg, are more Rigondeaux's size, if Rigs ever gets either into the ring, they will either be KO'd, or leave the ring looking like the elephant man.

    I hear Rigs may go back to Japan since nobody else will fight him. Japan had like three or four guys rated in the top 10 in the various organizations.

    Rigo as a B side gets people to TV sets.

    Unless he's going to 118 I can't see any fight in Japan happening for a while. Wake, the top Japanese guy at the weight, has just signed for an IBF Eliminator with Thailand's Mike Tawatchai, winner will get a shot at Frampton form what I understand.

    it's a shame having such an interesting division where the talents aren't fighting each other.

    Not Rigo's fault as nobody will fight him.

    Frampton won a title not long ago against a solid titlist in Martinez and took care of his mandatory so he can't really be blamed too much either imo.

    Quigg's excuse of a world title has been a curse for him and has turned the public perception against him.

    LSC had a pretty awful spell at 122, fighting nobody really and defending against relative no-hopers. It is he that I am most disappointed with, having been a fan a few years ago.

    "Absolutely nobody"=Asian (OPBF) Featherweight champion

    Just because you didn't know of him doesn't mean he was a nobody.
