Yes for better or worse. You can go against your promoters wishes if you have all the leverage or if you want to run the risk of getting sidelined and blacklisted. Don't be naive.
I never understood how people can claim a fighter is ducking someone who is in a division he's never fought at? That's like saying floyd and pac are ducking GGG, or GGG is ducking Ward, or Ward is ducking Stevenson and Kovalov, or Kovalov is ducking the Cruisers, etc. I guess everyone in boxing is a ducker if that's the case.
This is a blatant duck because Mikey is tryin to make the fans believe he wants the fight. A duck is a duck. Its irrefutable:deal
But it is not irrefutable from the points that I have made. Mikey might actually want to fight YG but isn't about to go to war with his own promoter. Gamboa is not a mandatory so Arum does not have to make the fight (contrary to what beatdaddy said about having no choice but to make it happen if Garcia wants it) it's Arum's money after all.
I'm assuming you're Mexican. So how do you put aside common sense and information to still back him up? Like is it a National Pride thing? Or what? And I'm seriously asking cause I don't get it. I can't back up a fighter or athlete no matter what just because he has the same skin color or nationality or whatever.
Damn boxing sucks so much nowadays. This would be a great fight, can see why Mikey doesnt want it though
No doubt, I'm surprised arum even entertained the thought after he cost TR a lot of money with his last stunt.
