    Time for Rigondeaux to be a man. Fight is in front of him. Additional drug testing is only positive, never an excuse to not fight in my opinion.

    Kind of ironic that Donaire is basically trying to force the guy to do voluntary testing via the Voluntary Anti Doping Agency. Regardless, I can't say I blame Donaire. Rigo trains out of Miami, home of BALCO East. On the other hand, Rigo is only required to do testing run by the commission. Hopefully, Rigo does the testing and the fight proceeds as scheduled.
