    The deal is for this fight only and the promise he will face Nonito next, my guess is if he fight Nonito it will be an ext. involved.

    Didn't realize that Marroquin is a pretty tall SBW at 5.8, he looks like a welter standing next to Rigo. Pictures at the scene.

    Rigondeaux's future with TR is uncertain ,he says that after this fight they're gonna sit and talk. I believe Hyde is betting for a switch to GBP .He says they are paying him peanuts for his Marroquin fight.At some point he believed the fight will be cancelled.

    as for your comments about Rigo doing very well with Hyde lets just bring in Rigondeaux own opinion ok?:

    "After this fight we are going to sit down and talk about it. They are paying me peanuts. I'm getting nothing for these fights. I need to get paid better and we are going to sort that out after the fight"

    To be honest Santiago ,after Hydes mediation Rigo increased his purse from 100K to 150k, I'm not defending Hyde but the one paying is the promoter(TR).

    It's hard for the lower weight class guys to make a decent paycheck. Shame, but that's the way it is.

    At least Rigo should be stepping back into the ring, that has to be a good thing.

    Generally, it's disgraceful how little the sub-Featherweights make in comparison to bigger, less skilled, fighters.

    Rigondeaux and Marroquin both at 122 at the weigh in today.
    almost 4 inches difference between them.

    :lol: @ Rigondeaux calling Donaire and Nishioka cocksuckers and the translator omitting it. I always thought the constant call-outs by Rigondeaux and Lara on the Scene and elsewhere were just de Cubas talking tough and embellishing but this make it sound like he's legitimately pissed at these guys:
