    It's like the lastline says.

    "John has an agreement with Golden Boy promotions which may hinder an issue-free negotiation unless the WBA declares a purse bid."

    So if they call a purse bid the fight should happen unless one of them refuses to fight.

    The scene reports it has to take place in 120 days, but that is just unrealistic. John recently suffered an injury and should face the guy he was supposed to unless it's completely off. Would he enter camp very soon and take on Gamboa after a year lay-off with Top Rank and Golden Boy working out the deal in a few days? Dream on.

    BTW, I still favor John in this fight as before Saturday.

    Difficult to envision JuanMa fighting somebody like Caballero after coming off a brutal stoppage loss to Rafa Marquez. :smoke

    The doctor asked salido if he could continue, and salido told YES, and the fight went on. I'm tired of reading this idiotics post, every time I c these letters DQ, I just jump to the next post.

    I was looking around and I can't find anything saying John is still fighting Saucedo, he wasn't a mandatory so I don't think it's happening.

    I wouldn't mind John vs Gamboa. John is a step up from Salido in my opinion, he gots better technique in his punching. I know John has a decent chin, but I don't know if it's as good as Salidos.

    If the Bob father does go forward with this fight, Gamboa is going to have to control his aggression a little better. I give Gamboa the edge in another tough fight.

    The stage is set. John vs Gamboa and Juanma vs Rafa Marquez. I don't think Gamboa will get past John to make it to a Juanma Grand Finale. Hopefully they can get this John and Gamboa fight before the end of the year.

    It has to happen in the next 4 months, so the latest it can happen is in Janurary.

    Gamboa the super champ John the Super Duper champ both will fight The WBA undisputed Galaxy championship which in turn will lead to gamboa if he wins facing JML in a unification fight that if he wins that wil elevated him to the WBA Quadrant 6 of the Universe Featherweight champion.

    If he does he should fight Caballero, I'm sure Caba will drop fighting Litazu to fight Gamboa.
