    If that is true, you can't be mad at Gamboa.

    If all the talk about Arum stealing money from Pac is true, Gamboa is making a great decision here. I understand this is a fight everybody wants to see, but look at it from Gambos's point of view. Everybody know Arum is ****ed up anyway.

    If Gamboa is getting a mill for this fight, how much is Arum scraping from that.

    Maybe is not about the payment but the contract years...

    Exactly. He maybe getting paid 1.3 but going home with $250,000 to fight the champ 2 weight classes above him. If Mayweather had something to do with Arum getting shafted I LOVE IT !!!!!!

    Something is up when there are press conferences happening before a fight contract has even been signed.

    No, you're definitely wrong. Rios is a better fighter than Margarito whereas Gamboa isn't as good as Pacquiao. **** comparison.

    Seems like since he's been hanging around Floyd he's starting to grow feathers...I had no idea it was contagious

    Ur an idiot . I definantly said there STYLES would clash and it will look similar to Pac vs Marg. And I'm not so sure if Rios is much better than Margarito is. Just cause Margarito got beat a few times doesn't mean he wasn't once the most avoided fighter. Nobody is trying to avoid Rios who will be pummbled once he starts fighting in his proper weight class. Not picking on smaller fighters while he comes in 25 pounds heavier than them.

    You're completely and utterly wrong. Rios doesn't fight like Margarito, and Gamboa doesn't fight like Pacquiao. It would look nothing like the fight those two had.

    Stop now.

    I like gamboa but his popularity will decrease big time if he doesnt go trough with the fight he signed for and people are most excited for.
    He needs to stop listening to floyd and his safe legacy cruising and take on some tough challenges like Rios, I favour gamboa anyway, dont fail us now man!

    Margarito fought Cotto 2x, P will, Shane Mosely , Pacquiao , Cintron,beat Martinez , chased Floyd around for years.

    Who the F$%k has Rios fought that you can say he's a better fighter ???

    He does everything better than Margarito. Faster hands, quicker feet, more varied combinations, better defensive abilities, and he has more one-punch power in a p4p sense. Yeah, he's better.

    It's easy to do that **** when ur not fighting much opposition. He maybe better in the long run but how in the world can you say he's better now. Gary Russell Jr has way better hand skills than Pacquiao. Does that mean he's a better fighter ?? No it doesn't because he has to do it against elite fighters. Brandon style is effective because he's fighting at a weight class he can't even make anymore. He has to starve for 5 days to make it. He can't do that against fighters his size. U will see. U know **** about boxing.
