As is so often the case outside of the ring troubles threaten to snatch away one of the more talented and popular rising names in our sport, an ongoing problem that has plagued every decade since men began exchanging punches for pay. \u201cValero Screws up Royally\u201d by OKMike reports on the sudden unfortunate turn of events that has the long arm of the law reaching out at the WBC lightweight champion, one of today\u2019s most electrifying performers and a fighter with a myriad of lucrative big fight options looming. And if a discussion about drama is your game perhaps a visit to the thread \u201cRingondeaux Hurt, Out of Fight, Dumps Roach\u201d would be a good place to brush-up on Prima Donna 101. OKMike has tapped into the ever-developing soap opera that was the promising career of junior featherweight Guillermo Rigondeaux, a two-time Cuban Olympic gold medalist that appeared to have both talent and the world at his feet.<\/p>\n<p>Now in its third week the RSR April 2010 Prediction League is rolling along nicely. Having taken the lead after a brisk start by OKMike, AnthonySullivan looks poised to kick the ball into the net. Not far behind, several league veterans are well positioned to capitalize should there be any upsets over the remaining fifteen bouts on the roster relative to the latter\u2019s bold predictions on the outcomes.
