Full Version: Rigondeaux splits from Roach
fuck, i needed that rigondeaux fight to rack up points for my fantasy team!!!!!! 
It's somewhat understandable though...Rigondeaux cited one of his main reasons is that Roach is busy training several fighters and with the gym bring crowded it's hard to receive as much attention as a fighter with his caliber would receive from other trainers. A fighter like Rigondeaux is about to turn 30 and needs as much attention as possible as he prepares for a title shot in the near future. Unlike most prospects, Rigondeaux doesn't have much time to be patient..
