    Maybe has something to do with the fact that they are several weight classes apart, I dunno.

    This.

    Being a Rios and Gamboa fan, moreso Gamboa, if I were Rios I would focus on Abril and other challenges at 135 and 140 and less time focusing on fighting and throwing shots at a Featherweight in interviews, not making excuses for Gamboa.

    Gamboa signed a contract to fight Rios and then flaked out.

    it was all a promotional con just like most of the stuff in the media about pac floyd

    and saul alvarez vs chavez jnr

    the fights are hinted at for years before they eventually happen with maximum revenue

    Rios don't play that game. For him it is always personal.
