    From ESB. Roach says Rigondeaux was the best technician he's ever seen and when he tries to get in shots on Rigondeaux during pad holding to catch his mistakes, Rigondeaux always manages to defend it. Roach wants to see Nonito take on Rigondeaux.

    Everyone wants to see Nonita take on Rigo, except Nonita herself of course.

    shame he was in the ams for so long, but tough, Rigo has superb skills and ability, maybe that's why Donaire doesn't want the fight

    Donaire ain't stupid. He knows if he fights Rigo, he will get beat and lose his pay and his fake climb to the p4p ranking.

    Just wondering though, why Abner Mares, Arce, Nishioka, WV2 don't seem to be interested in Rigondeaux. Also, why is Rigondeaux not interested in rematching Cordoba to erase the memory of his bad performance?

    Rigo would make Donaire look like a C level fighter.

    Rigo looks good and I honestly think that Donaire/Arum are ducking him. His next fight against Arce is not good enough. I think Arce showed signs of decline in his last fight and is "ready" to be beaten to a pulp by a fast fighter (Donaire).

    After Montiel, Donaire should have been maintaining the same level of opposition, moving up in weight perhaps and going for the likes of John & Salido. He needs a higher level opponent before he declines into the usual cash-cow era of competition.
