''We'll talk with both fighters (Donaire and Rigondeaux) in the new year,'' http://ph.sports.yahoo.com/news/arum-eyes-cuban-donaire-124056604--spt.html
this is high risk - high reward fight.. it'll make a lot of money if it's promoted right.. i will finally give donaire his props if he beats this cuban kid
great fighters. elite fighters goin at it. man i feel like i shouldnt pick agasint donaire . but i really think rigo can win.
I thought it's the other way around. Arum doesn't want this fight because he sees Donaire as his possible future cash cow. Rigo doesn't bring in much crowd and he is a high risk fight for Donaire.
"Arum said he is now inclined to make this mouth-watering matchup happen with March 2013 as target date." That sounds too good to be true.
sho does. but we might get lucky. he let jr get it on with chavez. and he is getting old so hes tryin to make all the bread he can. also he realized he ****ed up with gamboa/lopez fight so he doesnt milk it too long anymore. hes seems like hes down to do this!!!!
No one outside of boxing die hard knows who Riggo is. The only way either fighter gets good money is if HBO pays for it. Donaire isn't a huge draw and Riggo isn't even a blip on the map. As a boxing fan I'd love to see this but it isn't a mega PPV number fight.
