    I chatted with Teon Kennedy on Twitter, he plans on taking Rigondeaux's title on the Pacquiao vs Bradley undercard. :good:patsch:rofl

    yeah we can all espouse rigo's skill but he is still unproven against top competition. The fact that no one wants to fight him is bull****, you can get a fight it you really want it. The guy probably has personal or business issues else why would he not be fighting 4 or 5 times at year at this stage of his career. 9 fights in 4 years, the only fighter to fight less is floyd mayweather

    You should learn some before running your flap. 9 fights in just under 3 years (turned pro May 2009,) he also has a 10th fight coming up June 9th, a month after his 3rd year as a pro. Rigondeaux is also 31, not some young spring chicken to be fighting 4-5 times a year against bums to pad his resume (can't believe this is actually being condoned.) Also, you know...when you're really good, and display amazing skill without looking weak, people tend to not wanna fight you. Especially when you're trying to appeal to those at the top level. He doesn't have time to waste fighting nobodies. It's not his fault the top tier fighters are scared to give him the shot he wants.


    Try to being some education into an argument before you come in sounding like a biased *****.

    Rigo aint had his **** pushed in yet against the top guys in the weights.
    I aint saying he's ducking by any means, but he can get thew bigger fights right now. I mean Donaire is right in front of him if he really wants that fight.:nono

    Moreno's chin is questionable, and While I ain't a chin checker I have my suspicions.

    Rigo, Mares, Moreno, donaire, Nishioka, is all that need to be in tournament. That would give us all the asnwers.

    education, the man does not fight how the **** can you argue with that. No one said he had to fight bums, he just has to fight. Your the one who has some fantasy notion that no one wants to fight him is the reason that he doesn't fight. Sounds like you are just making **** up.

    Toshiaki Nishioka those 2 divisions are gret, packed, would be good if they fought each other... same with the 126 division.

    :think

    Arce would fight anyone on that division..

    Nishioka is looking for Donaire who is far more deadly than Rigo, I believe..

    Mares has been fighting everybody while moving up..

    Donaire is still looking to fight Gamboa, but Arum won't give it to him..

    I can't see anyone of them afraid to fight Rigo.. :nono
    Its not the fighters who's afraid, but the promoters.. :hey

    I just added Arce cause I think a name like his on your fight record brings a lot of recognition..

    Mathebula is the IBF champion and Munyai is the IBO champion..

    There's just too much on that division I have to pick the fighters who's holding belts.. There are guys like Terrazas, Montiel, Mijares, Molitor, Poonsawat, Rafa Marquez, and Romero.. :deal

    Id say its a given Moreno will fight Mares next !!!

    As for the rest , well that leaves Nishioka , Donaire and Rigondeaux

    Donaire is not going any where near Rigo , any time soon !!! , if GB want super fights for there boys , then they should look to match Moreno / Mares with Rigo , a fight TR would happily take i imagine

    And while Donaire is busy knocking cans over , he could get the winner of the above , Nishioka will continue fighting in Japan and why not there's plenty of good solid Japanese fighters from 118 - 130

    Exactly. If he would fight more often people would know who he is and eventually people would pay to see him fight Donaire.

    As of right now Donaire vs Rigondeux is not a PPV fight because while people might pay to see Donaire on PPV they wont pay to see Rigondeux.
