Boxing’s most avoided world champion Guillermo Rigondeaux heading to UK next month To publically confront Scott Quigg

Залишити коментар
ПРОБКА, Ірландія (Квітня 12, 2015) – Unified super bantamweight world champion Білл “Шакал” Рігондо (15-0, 10 КО), arguably the most avoided reigning world title holder in modern boxing history, will travel to London next month in order to publicly confront his mandatory challenger, Скотт QUIGG (30-0-2, 22 КО), the World Boxing Association (WBA) “регулярний” 122-фунт поділ вазі.

 

A month ago in an unusual move, Рігондо’ менеджер Гері Хайд formally petitioned the WBA to enforce a mandatory title fight between his WBA Super champion and Quigg. Hyde is awaiting the WBA’s decision. Rigondeaux is also the World Boxing Organization (WBO) і Кільце супер найлегшій вазі журналу.

 

A reigning world champion hasn’t been avoided by other world champions and top contenders like Rigondeux has for the past two years since, можливо, в першій середній Серхіо Мартінес, or possibly all the way back to middleweight Майк Мак-Каллум.

 

The top three super bantamweights in the world outside of Rigondeaux – International Boxing Federation (IBF) і Всесвітня боксерська рада (WBC) champions, Карл Frampton і Лев Санта-Крус, відповідно, plus Quigg – have avoided the Cuban great like the plaque. Once Santa Cruz’ promoter at the time, Оскар де ла Хойя, announced that a Rigondeaux-Santa Cruz had to happen, Санта-Крус’ powerful adviser, Аль Haymon, exercised a contract option and bought him out to avoid a fight with ‘Rigo.’ Frampton’s promoter, Barry McGuigan, has proclaimed his fighter, not Rigondeaux, as the No. 1 super featherweight in the world. McGuigan, хоча, is interested in Frampton fighting Quigg in a U.K. розтин, rather than a world mega-fight for three of the four major sanctioning world titles. As the “регулярний” WBA champion, Quigg is Rigondeaux’ обов'язковим претендентом, ще, he apparently wants no part of the two-time Olympic gold medalist because his promoter, Barry Hearn, not only hasn’t pushed the issue, he’s in negotiations with McGuigan for Frampton to fight Quigg.

 

Former world super bantamweight champions Nonito Doniare, after he lost a unification fight to Rigondeaux two years ago, і Авнер Mares chose to move up one division to fight as featherweights. And now Donaire reports that his manager was contacted by a Quigg representative to discuss a Donaire-Quigg fight in England.

 

Another two-time Olympic gold medalist, WBO 126-pound champion Василь Ломаченко, continually insists that “Лінія” has to move up in weight for a fight to happen despite him having no problems making 126.

 

“QUIGG, Santa Cruz and Frampton have showed no desire to challenge Rigondeaux,” Гайд сказав. “These three fighters are trying to fool the public into believing that fight Немає. 1 guy in the world is not important. While they are lining their pockets with ridiculous amounts of cash for fighting below par opponents, Rigondeaux is forced to wait around until some Asian opponent steps up. This is a sport in which we are accustomed to seeing the best fighting the best but, in the super bantamweight division, it’s the best versus the rest.

 

“Rigondeaux will travel to Manchester to fight Quigg, Belfast to fight Frampton, or Las Vegas to fight Santa Cruz. None of these so-called world champions, хоча, will consider fighting the acknowledged world super bantamweight champion. They’re all much more content to hold onto their belts than beating The Man in their weight class.”

 

Наступного місяця, Hyde reports, Rigondeaux will travel to the United Kingdom in a bold attempt to embarrass Quigg into fighting him. “I don’t like traveling overseas unless I have a fight lined up,” Rigondeaux explained, “but I will travel to England in May to publicly call out Scott Quigg. If he turns down the chance to fight our WBA mandatory, he will be remembered for that instead of being known as a great fighter. While I’m in the UK, I will also go to Belfast to checkout Carl Frampton to ask if he wants to prove himself against the best in his division.”

 

Understanding that the top super bantamweight action is currently in Europe, noting a record purse ($2.2 million USD) offered for a Frampton vs. Quigg fight, Rigondeaux is considering a major change in the not too distant future, moving his base from Miami to the UK, if that’s what it takes for him to get in on the action.

 

Hyde also manages former WBO middleweight champion and current International Boxing Federation (IBF) Чи не. 1 обов'язковим претендентом Н'Жікам, Хассан Н'Дам (31-1, 18 КО), former WBA Interim cruiserweight champion Юрій “El Toro” Каленга (21-2, 14 КО) and Georgian super lightweight Леван “Вовк” Ghvamichava (14-1-1, 11 КО) , as well as top prospects such as Cuban super bantamweight Відзначити Forest (2-0, 2 КО), Irish heavyweight З Sheehan and Bulgarian light heavyweight Благой Найдьонов.
