Rigo to Frampton: forget Leo,i'll go to Belfast.

Not good idea to go there, i just have a bad feeling if Carl knocked him down they would somehow stop it (not saying last night was bad stoppage), other than that Rigo wide UD i can see him getting knocked down maybe once but doubt it.

 

Frampton turned down quigg so u really think he wants any part of rigo!

 

Weak


Framton vs Leo is a better fight

 

A bidding war breaking out among champs to decide who gets to fight a challenger....wow....now Ive seen it all!

 

Rigo would fight you if you could lose about 20 stone. The guy is desperate for an opponent, he's just been dropped by HBO because he can't draw flies to shít. Too good for his own good, fighting him is a guaranteed loss.

 

Rigs would KO him. Santa Cruz seems more like a guy Rigs would win a wide decision against.

 

Rigo wins easy atm and i say that as a massive Frampton fan. No way will it happen, way way more money in fighting LSC and a much more winnable fight for Carl. Sucks for Rigo but the fact is he is irrelevant in boxing, may be p4p number 3 or 4 but nobody bar a real hardcore fan wants to watch him fight. Reality is virtually everybody wants to see Frampton vs LSC few want him and Rigo. Carl Frampton and LSC may be lesser fighters than Rigondeaux but they will probably make twice as much if not more fighting each other than Rigo. Only way i see Frampton fighting Rigondeaux is if he beats LSC has a few defenses then maybe back end of 2015 he may fight Rigondeaux. Poor rigondeaux so talented yet nobody cares.

 

Rigo is the Klitschko of the lower weight classes.

Can't beat him, and nobody wants to see you try.

 

Bring it on. Frampton would fight smarter than Donaire did. It would be a great fight!

 

Yes unfortunately that's the general consensus. Rigo just that good. no one wants any part of him.:deal

 

Great fight or chess match?

 

Rigo, GGG and Kovalev are the three most avoided champions in boxing today.

 

As a boxing fan, Frampton and Santa Cruz are the best opponents for Rigo in the division. Both likely get beat but they are the top two there minus Rigo so it makes sense to put one in there although maybe getting LSC and Frampton to fight for "the right" to challenge Rigo would be even better.

If I was Frampton's manager though, I would avoid Rigo like the plague unless somebody cuts one hell of a cheque to make it worth it.

 

And that's not going to happen. Sadly, Rigo brings very little to the table as far as appealing to the networks or potential opponents. He can't even go the heel route ala Mayweather because he doesn't speak english.
