    From the S. GBP says Bob's position on paying for Mares's services is fair, so they want to pay for Rios's services to make the fight against Lucas.

    Matthysse vs Rios would be amazing. Winner gets Danny "Crispy" Garcia.

    If it makes both those fights happen then :happy :bbb. But can't see the fights getting made sadly.

    I don't know what's worse, them proposing this, or the guys at GBP telling me this is 100% legitimate.

    Good idea but it won't happen, besides Rios probably gets Pac next anyways. Its a shame this GBP-Top Rank thing is killing so many possible matches.

    At least GB is trying to find a compromise while greedy ***** Arum would rather rob fans of the biggest fights rather than split revenue. The guy doesn't care if the sport dies because he's already got one foot in the grave.

    No chance, just more cat and mouse bull****. These fights won't happen. No fight between two of either sides bigger stars will happen any time soon.

    Very good and reasonable idea that Arum will turn down

    It does not get any more fair than that.


    It will never happen though.

    I knew GBP wasn't serous.
    These are two superate issue, they need to get Lucas fighting Garcia, but they are gonna railroad the Mares Donaire fight because they know like I know that Donaire would destroy Mares easily and end his hype train.

    Good idea, sadly it's unlikely to happen.... Mathysse would ravage Rios, good fight while it lasted though!
