Guillermo Rigondeaux uppmuntrad av Oscar de la Hoya kommentar om Leo Santa Cruz enande kampen

MIAMI (Jan. 28, 2015) – World Boxing Association (WBA) Super, World Boxing Organization (WBO) och The Ring Magazine super bantamvikt mästare Räkning “Schakalen” Rigondeaux (15-0, 10 Kos) uppmuntras av rapporter som World Boxing Council (WBC) titelhållare Leo Santa Cruz‘ promotor, Oscar de la Hoya, tror en Rigondeaux-Santa Cruz enande kampen måste hända.

 

Den 34-årige Rigondeaux, en två-tiden OS-guldmedaljören, har begränsats till Asien för sina två senaste matcher, därefter i låg profil matcher, på grund av brist på lust av någon världsklass super bantamvikt att utmana den kubanska stjärnan.

 

Rigondeaux stoppad WBO nr. 6 rated utmanar Hisashi Amagasa (28-4-2, 19 Kos) efter 11 rundor i Osaka, Japan detta tidigare nyårsafton. I juli förra året, “Linje” utslagen Sod Kokietgym (62-2-1) i första deltävlingen i deras kamp i Macao, Kina.

 

“Det är bra att veta att Santa Cruz’ promotor har sagt att vårt enande kampen måste hända,” en extatisk Rigondeaux sa. “Jag vill lägga till sin (WBC) grönt bälte till min WBA och WBO mästerskapet samling. Jag har velat denna kamp för en tid. Låt oss hoppas att detta inte bara är tomt prat. Låt oss göra det!”

 

Rigondeaux vs. Santa Cruz (29-0-1, 17 Kos) skulle vara en klassisk uppgörelse mellan etniska boxing ärkerivaler, respektive, Kubanska och mexikanska soldater som nu bor i Miami och södra Kalifornien.

 

“Jag har kontaktat Golden Boy Promotions många gånger för att be om att göra en kamp mellan "Rigo’ och Santa Cruz,” Rigondeaux’ chef Gary Hyde tillsatt. “De svarade alltid genom att säga att de var intresserade av att göra denna kamp, ​​men inte på den tiden. I går, efter att lära Oscar sade denna kamp måste hända, Jag sträckte ut till Golden Boy och kan bekräfta att förhandlingarna har inletts. Jag och Caribe Kampanjer, 'Rigo s’ promotor, kommer att sträva efter att göra denna kamp ske så snart som möjligt.

 

“När "Rigo’ slår Santa Cruz för sin tredje VM-titel bälte – fjärde om man räknar The Ring Magazine – en kamp mot International Boxing Federation (IBF) mästare Carl Frampton (19-0, 13 Kos) skulle behöva hända för att bestämma den obestridda super bantamvikt mästare av världen.”
