Cake overbaked. But then Arum gave the world Rios-Gambio (which was a cake with naked women stepping out of it). But Gamboa became Glamboa and a raging diva ******.
We could have seen it then and it would have been a good fight, obviously with Gamboa being highly favored, but I think Arum was right. If they had both kept winning, the fight would have been even bigger, Gamboa could have had more of a fan base, and even more Puerto Ricans would have come out to see Lopez. The thing about making a "superfight" is that each fighter needs to earn the title of a fighter deserving of a superfight, and display dominance. I was not at all upset when Lopez lost to Salido, because that indicated to me that the hype wasn't quite what he added up to be in terms of Gamboa's number one threat to his status. In my view, no superfight was "spoiled", because half the equation was just short of truly deserving that spot as a dominant divisional player.
The cake that was once considered to be fluffy and moist is now a hardened rock that's covered with fungus.
The cake is burnt now. It has fungus and is stiff as a ****ing rock. The cake is being eaten by starving african kids now, the same kids who where t shirts with the super bowl loser on them
Bad matchmaking. The Salido fight should have never happened if Arum wanted to keep Lopez undefeated. I would think, that after seeing Gamboa lay Solis to waste, Arum would find a way to get Lopez out of the fight with Salido, considering Salido could take a lot of what the much more tallented Gamboa was giving him. I think Lopez is a warrior at heart because he may be the hardest puncher between he and Solis, but he couldn't go punch for punch with the guy. He needs to learn when to box, even if it's against his mentality. I don't know, boxing is a brutal sport. The worst thing about it, is the thing that fans, including myself, think is the best thing about it, so it appears that the objective of putting in precautions, seems to be taking a backseat in order to sustain economic viability and possibly to fill the coffers of interested speculators. If boxers desire to aspire to this ability, they should both understand that there typically is more than one way to win a fight, and realize that they have the opportunity to choose which way they decide to go. But this takes patience, time, dedication, and could very well mean an education and the acquisition of knowledge that previously failed to exist due to multiple factors, not including the limitation of the mentor, but also the failure for the protege to act on his behalf to take on more responsibilities to broaden his ability in the sport. The problem is, loyalty may be broken and accussations might be made. I don't know the answer to what decisions Juan Ma should take at this point, and I can only persuade him to look inside, and find the information from within.
