    ..Because Rigo would make it a 'boring fight'.

    Yet he had no problem fighting the likes of feather fisted Mathebula.

    Then he's rushing onto Facebook whining about testing and questioning whether he's clean or not before Rigondeaux even has a chance to sign the papers. Like he couldn't wait to throw a spanner in the works. What is it with this guy?

    Is he not that keen on fighting Rigo, just feeling the pressure, or is he just an Emo *****, as has been so eloquently stated?

    That's the reason why he'll never fill pacquiao's shoes.Pac never brought any drama to any fight, he just fought whoever Arum lined up for him.No accusations ,no trash talking.

    He's defensive about testing because of weak but present suspicions concerning him working with Conte.

    I think people go overboard calling Donaire an emo *****, he just takes **** too personally on facebook and such. Doesn't quite know ho to brush off the haters.

    Last I saw in his facebook, his status quoted an article saying that Rigo was completely willing to take the VADA test, they just wanted a copy in Spanish so that Rigo could understand it himself. Meanwhile his own fans were on here whining about it.

    he's not wrong about the boring fight part, Rigo needs to make it a boring fight to win, he can't trade with Nonito and come out on top

    Mathebula is a fun and proven fighter. He beat the **** out of Caballero in his home town when Caballero was a unified 122 champ and p4p in ring.

    He got robbed bad. Even the Panamanian commentators said so. You could have seriously given him every round.

  8. You'll see what he means when the fight goes down. Rigo will be running all night like a coward. He is not going to stand up against Nonito. Rigo does not deserve a spotlight in this sport and it'll be shown that night. He is not an exciting fighter. Arum will get him out of the way now and he'll be forgotten.

    You don't deserve success in the sport if you're a cautious boxer, and not all offense? :huh

    Also, shut up OnePunchKO.

    Has won 8 out of 11 by KO ...boring? Because he doesn't fight like Brandon Rios?
     
  12. Hoe, I mean Joe. lol! Nah jk.

    Cautious boxers are NOT entertaining to the MAINSTREAM audience which is what the sport targets. The HARDCORE following is significantly smaller compared to the mainstream market.

    FACT is, people want to see fighters go at it when they pay.. at least the majority like myself do. Or on HBO/SHO fights.. They will boo in disgust when a fighters backpedals like a ***** and rightfully so.

    You're not a PPV attraction unless you are an exciting fighter OR controversial like Mayweather which record helps him stay relevant.

    not saying his fights are boring, just pointing out that if he wants to beat Donaire, he HAS to fight cautiously(some might call it boring) like Wlad, he can't trade with a heavy-handed guy like Nonito

    He lost in two weight classes above where he was actually good at. It's a much better "win" than what Rigo has.

    Man cubano you dont know sh$t. First off do you know where caballero fought litzau at? Hmm 130 pounds? Isnt that two weight class above? Caballero fought at 122 pounds in which thats his best weight for crying out loud.
