Nonito keeps saying after all his fights he wants to fight the best ok then fight Rigo because he is the best he is the master of his craft and that is boxing, Donaire has not looked that good his last 2 fights and the move up in weight is not working out to good for him, Rigo would beat him and donaire and his team know it and that is why he will dodge Rigo for as long as he can.......Rigo is the real deal. Im not Cuban by the way I just like great boxers and Rigo is a Great boxer,and I am not a Racist.
That's interesting. Thanks for passing it on. Having met Donaire, I know he is a genuinely nice, humble guy. I don't see him ever getting into a confrontation with another fighter unless it's a press conference. To me, Donaire vs. Arce will be more entertaining than a Rigo fight, but eventually those two need to square off.
Since he won an interrim belt in his 6 fight and the real deal in his 9, Way do you want a guy so talented and 31 years old fighting cab drivers? Is beyond me that fans doesn't want to watch the best fights in boxing, MMA pitch the best of the best against each other every time out, but most of the boxing fans excuse their idol because he doesn't want to fight the best, Gamboa has to go two divisions up in order to land a meaningful fight, Lara is been asking to fight the best from 147-160 and my guess is that Rigondeaux will have to do it too, we have too many Canelos and Chavez jr already.
if he was given the opportunity to fight for a championship before 10 fights its because of his high quality as a boxer, any ordinary or rookie by his 9 fight would be just testing the waters against some decent opposition.Rigo was given the opportunity and he accomplished very well.By his 7 fight already fighting ex champ Cordoba for an interim title, by fight 8 annihilating the european champion in 1 rd and by fight 9 defeating the current champ by spectacular body shot. who was Nonito fighting by fight 9? and you can't blame him, he didn't have the experience that Rigo has around the same time.Lets be realistic, i don't say Nonito is afraid-but his promoter want to cash on him and knows the huge risk of Rigondeaux, that;s the only reason-its not because he has only 9 fights.Its not because his fight with Cordoba was boring( nonito vs Narvaez was a narcoleptic as well)its just a matter of business.
getting a title shot is every boxers dream or at least fighting someone popular. tell that to the boxers who'd fight 20-30 times just to even get noticed. now tell me what's rigo's pass for bitchin about not getting a shot at donaire? because he is cuban? because he claimed to have 400 amateur fights? rigo doesnt want to walk the usual boxing path towards las vegas. he wants to take a plane towards las vegas. and since hbo and top rank are not willing to lend him their plane, he is bitching about it.
