MIAMI
(August 21, 2012) -- Court enjoins Guillermo Rigondeaux from Participating in Sept. 15 bout vs. Robert Marroquin. A Circuit Court hearing was held this morning in
Miami and the Court enjoined World Boxing Association World Super
Bantamweight Champion Guillermo "El Chacal" Rigondeaux (10-0, 8 KOs)
from engaging in any bout not approved by his manager, Gary Hyde, and
also enjoined Rigondeaux from participating in a September 15 fight
previously announced by Top Rank.
Top
Rank had scheduled Rigondeaux to defend his WBA title on Sept. 15
against Robert Marroquin (22-1, 15 KOs) on the Sergio Martinez-Julio
Cesar Chavez, Jr. HBO Pay-Per-View event, live from the Thomas &
Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
However, the Rigondeaux-Top Rank
contract expired prior to that date and Mr. Hyde had not approved the
September 15 date and had, in fact, obtained lucrative offers from other
promoters. At that point Top Rank sought to schedule Mr. Rigondeaux
without Mr. Hyde's permission.
Hyde has been Rigondeaux's manager since the two-time Olympic gold medalist defected from Cuba in 2007.
