Rigondeaux manager's lawyer tells Top Rank not to make bogus claims

Earlier today I sent an e mail inviting a written proposal for review.

I have now read two articles quoting Bob Arum to the effect that Mr.

Rigondeaux will remain with Top Rank.


Those statements seem to be offered as fact and not opinion. Let me

make this clear. Any offer must be placed in writing and will be

considered. However, it is not accurate to suggest that any new

contract is in any way a fait accompli and Bob should be so advised.

The sole commitment made is to consider any written proposal.
