    LSC isn't interested (as expected) and Rigo's offered to come to Belfast to face Carl so I assume they'll make this fight happen.

    Anything else other than Rigo is a duck isn't it?

    Rigo could be his only option unless he's willing to wait around but he's done his fair share of that already

    He's better off waiting...

    I think it's fairer to say Rigo is pursuing Frampton before he is ready. I don't think it's fair to expect someone who hasn't even won a world title or made any real money to fight someone who is arguably top 5 p4p. Rigo should be challenging himself fighting bigger men. It's not very hard to duck him either way. He doesn't have a large fan base or an exciting style and tbh from a fan/ promoters point of view, who wants to see their favourite fighters made to look so bad?

    Of course LSC isn't interested as he knows he will probably lose whether it's on the west coast or not. As for anything other than Rigo is a duck is a harsh, unfair comment and you know it.

    In 18 months I think he will give Rigo the toughest fight of his pro career as Frampton is a real talent.
