    seems that way to me. they thought donaire would beat rigondeaux and thought wrong. now they want him to disappear? why? who are they protecting? it's pretty obvious to me.

    HBO and Top Rank dont like rigo because they think hes boring, i think its just an excuse to make him not fight/beat their guys

    That's BS. How much more exciting is Mayweather over Rigo? HBO was doing everything they can to keep Mayweather.

    I dont know anybody other than Phonaire nuthuggers who would want to see Rigo v Darchinyan II over Phonaire v Rigo II. You know what's boring, these "boring" excuses.

    I really enjoy watching Rigo fight, his technical ability and defense are second to none.
    That being said, I wouldn't favor him over Mikey Garcia. Mikey obviously doesn't have the ring experience of Rigo, but his size, strength and combination punching might be too much for Rigo. I'd call it a 50/50 fight or slightly favor Mikey over him.

    How is HBO protecting Mikey from him? Rigo doesn't want to move up and Mikey can't even make FW anymore
