    Some of you Donaire cabin boys are trashing Rigondeaux resume saying he needs to fight somebody. Cordoba, Ramos, Kennedy, are comparable to that bum Mathebula, Vazquez Jr. and showed up just for the pay check, hadn't fought in a year Nishioka. Don't be hypocritical. Donaire is about to fight another crap opponent in Arce.

    The only reason Nishioka fought Donaire was for the pay check. He was retiring, and hadn't fought in a year. He even said he showed up for the pay check after the fight.

    Yes, comparing the resume at 122, probably.

    But his overall resume pales in comparison.

    11 fights, why does he want to cash out in 11 fights?

    It is a winnable fight for Rigondeaux, and Donaire keeps fighting guys who just aren't that good. He seems to be following the Pacquiao route of least resistance.

    That's my point exactly. Everybody makes so much of Donaire beating Nishioka when it was obvious he didn't even want to fight anymore YET it was a career defining win which is laughable.

    He was in Cuba! It's not like he can fly over when he wants and fight. He had to defect first. Rigo is clearly experienced beyond his record if you guys would get your heads out Donaire's nut sacks. Donaire is going to wait until Rigo is 36 and claim how great of a warrior he is like he did with Nishioka.

    That's beside the point.

    He was calling out Donaire after he beat Kennedy.

    What did he do on his part? He fought Marroquin.

    When his team could've checked the field and ask if Nishioka, Vazquez, among others are available.

    You Donaire cabin boys don't seem to realize, they are under the same promoter and match maker. Bob Arum absolutely refuses to give Rigondeaux fights that would build up his following. Matching Rigondeaux with Arce would have done just that. Instead, Arum in typical Arum fashion, feeds the over the hill Arce, to Donaire, the already established boxer. It would have been a good showcase fight for Rigondeaux. Arum doesn't give a **** about his black fighters though.

    You also have to remember Rigondeaux just went through a contract dispute. It got straightened out and he was given Marroquine. While Rigondeaux claimed he was in the gym non-stop, you could tell that he wasn't in the best of shape during that fight. He should be matched with another top ten guy next. If he hadn't had the contract thing, he likely would have been matched tougher the last time out.

    You do realize Rigondeaux's team is pretty much the same team as Donaire's right? His inability to get fights with those guys is because Donaire is given higher priority by their common promotional company, the same company which won't work with any other major promoter but which also won't make the most compelling match at 122 from within their stable.

    Shut the **** up!:lol::lol:

    Idiots here don't even know who poonsawat is. All they think is that Marroquin is someone special, or Kennedy is like a very very big challenge.

    The Rigo huggers have this philosophy : Donaire or else any bum.
