    Arum's a bonafide idiot if he doesn't make this happen.

    Why can't it? even for a super bantamweight Nonito is big. Noone expects him to stay at 122 for long at all. After he gets this belt he can move up to featherweight and fight gamboa

    As of now, Gamboa is more tested professionally then Rigondeaux. He's also BIGGER then Doniare, and one of the fastest, and most exposive punchers today. Only a bunch of ****in idiots think him wanting Gamboa is a bad thing.

    Scumbag Arum won't make either Gamboa/Donaire or Rigo/Donaire.

    A very smart way to duck rigondeaux. He just said yesterday he want to stay at 122 for a while- then he wants gamboa who is heading to lightweight?
    Nonito should be a Bob Arum's son.Now we know for sure he's scared of Rigo.

    Many people in the boxing world have wanted a Donaire vs Gamboa fight for quite some time, and it is very possible. I believe Gamboa's next fight will be at Super Featherweight, which is an 8 pound difference from 122. I don't believe Nonito is ducking Rigondeaux whatsoever, but a bigger fight for him would be Yuriorkis Gamboa.

    Oh i would love to see him against gamboa but we all know that gamboa can't make 126 anymore, so nonito wants gamboa when? In 3 yrs? Don't fool yourselves, it's a "talking move" maybe designed by Arum himself.
    If he really wants gamboa just say he's going up to 126 right after Vazquez , then gamboa can remain close to FW and don't blow into a LW.
    A fight w Rigo is something that 90% of boxing fans want to see and it makes lot of sense. Unless nonito has a liver( or heart?) condition.

    Kind of like Gamboa calling out Brandon Rios knowing Rios can't make LW anymore?

    At least he says; let the fight happen right away. He wants to jump 2 divisions after Rios who hasn't announced he will go to 140. There is nor bluff here and there is nobody at 126-130 with a belt calling gamboa for a fight.
    I personally would rather see gamboa vs Broner .
