Rigondeaux

A judge in Florida has denied a request for an emergency stay from WBA super-bantamweight champion Guillermo Rigondeaux, which would have enabled him to fight next month.

Last week, the same judge upheld the contract of his manager Gary Hyde and issued an injunction stopping the boxer making the second defence of his title.

Rigondeaux was due to put his belt on the line against Robert Marroquin on the undercard of Sergio Martinez's clash with Julio Cesar Charvez Jnr in Las Vegas.
