Rodriguez frustrated with the amount they want to pay him in fights.

With the level of opposition he has faced, his skill set, and the fact that he's Puerto Rican, they are doing a terrible job promoting his career.

Nah, he said it was all frustration because of boxing politics and him not getting the money he was promised

Was gonna say, I seem to remember him announcing his retirement.

Given Rodriguez deadline for the match was April I knew his purse bid was scheduled, but didn't know Kameda was his promoter. I just recently read a Japanese article that the Shigeoka brothers were planning to make first defense in March so they probably are going to make it together to sell as a triple world title fight.

At least for Rodriguez, good for him that he is likely going to get $195k. He was apparently supposed to get $200k to face Astrolabio for the vacant belt but the organization changed opponents last minute and only got $75k and wasn't happy.
