    After Gamboa met up with Floyd he now has chicken pox and is suddenly afraid for his health.

    By all accounts, Gamboa never signed the contract.

    Than why do press conference? No need to do anything till promoters have signed contract in hand.

    Why is Mayweather actually being blamed in any of this? Yes, the whole situation could have been handled smoother by all parties, and by all parties is Gamboa, and Top Rank, and whoever his joint deal is with. As fans, we want to see what we want to see, but some of us would not work a minimum wage job if we felt we were better than that. I have no idea how much Gamboa makes. I have no idea what expenses he has, but if his signature isn't on the line, he can't be accountable for anything. A verbal agreement is one thing. We've all agreed to certain things before, and maybe every now and then might not have kept our word. At the same time, if the company wanted to arrange all travel arrangements, and rent out the venue for press conference, I'm sure there had to be some sort of notification that Gamboa wasn't going to show. Of course everyone can hold out hope and wish he'd show. Don't forget, we've seen baseball players, football players, and basketball players all hold out until they get what they wish for. Boxing is no different. What's best for us may not be whats best for the boxer.
