Rigo and nonito met after the fight

Con las manos ensangrentadas por la agonizante tarea de derrotar a Wilfredo Vázquez Jr., Nonito Donaire bajó del cuadrilátero en Las Vegas y se topó frente a frente con un visitante inesperado: Guillermo Rigondeaux.

“Oye, tú que dices que yo peleo aburrido, dime una cosa, ¿cuándo vas a boxear conmigo?’’, le preguntó en tono insistente el campeón cubano de las 122 libras de la Asociación Mundial (AMB). “¿Dime cuándo? Pon fecha ahora mismo’’.

Y el filipino, recién salido de su refriega con el puertorriqueño y con la faja de la Organización Mundial (OMB), le respondió en perfecto español el domingo antes de salir rumbo al hospital, donde fue atendido a causa del rompimiento de una vena en su mano izquierda. Afortunadamente, no hubo fractura.

“Guillermo, yo le respeto mucho y sé que es un gran campeón’’, pero evadió el tema del futuro choque entre ambos y con razón, porque en el horizonte del asiático no aparece el cubano ni en el futuro inmediato ni en el próximo, de acuerdo con los planes que se han filtrado por parte de Top Rank.

Desde hace tiempo, la compañía promotora presidida por el controversial Bob Arum viene cocinando un enfrentamiento entre Donaire (28-1, 18 KO) y el mexicano Jorge Arce (59-6-2, 45 KO), el último hombre en ostentar la corona que el filipino conquistó ante Vázquez Jr. Irónicamente, Arce se la había arrebatado al boricua.

Rigo approached nonito and asked- you,saying that I'm boring, when are you gonna fight me.? Set a date, and nonito answered in perfect Spanish ; rigo I know you are a great champ and I respect you - but didn't say anything about a possible fight.
Everything else you already know, team rigondeaux upset about being ignored by top rank and hbo

 

Thankfully, everyone on here reads spanish, so no need for translation.


edit: n/m you posted it afterwards.. thanks.

 

why are you so fixated with donaire? he is fighting arce and there's nothing you can do about it. the only people who knows rigondeaux are cubans and hard core fans. top rank and hbo doesnt give a **** if he has 1 million amateur fights.

you obviously want your boy to take the easy way to stardom by fighting a big name in donaire. now you know that the easy way ain't happening why ***** about it?

 

i don't know if you are aware about what a boxing forum is: we post threads about topics we want to either discuss or inform other members.When i find some news that i consider interesting i post it-specially if in spanish since many people here don't have access to that info.It's up to the members if they want to read or discuss about it.If you don't care just ignore it and keep reading and debating about floyd and manny.That simple.Now go on and get a life.

 

Interesting.

 

Thanks for the news. Well, it's official then. Don~aire doesn't want anything to do with the Cuban master. Rigondeaux has a " real Champ " attitude, will fight the best anytime anywhere while Don~aire doesn't. :hey

 

Like Kid said, if you don't like the thread then ignore it.

 

Donaire is a coward. He knows he cant beat Guillermo.

 

I feel sorry for Rigo. That said - a more aggressive style would help him grow his fan base. Despite scoring a sensational ko he is not winning fans and does not really have a fan friendly style. Now what I mean by that is the average joe- not hardcore fans obviously.

 

Neither does Floyd. Casual fans just don't seem to appreciate great defense. They just want to see a guy that trades a lot.

 

nonito a G he don't need to ive no puerto rican ***git a shot, he already beat vasquez.

 

Rigondeaux is Cuban. Know what Cuba is?

 

:rofl
