Former champion Brandon Rios is backing his Oxnard stablemate, Mikey Garcia (34-0, 28KOs), to secure a knockout victory over Olympic gold medal winner Yuriorkis Gamboa (23-0, 16KOs). Top Rank and 50 Cent are both on board with making Garcia-Gamboa happen. The fight is targeted to take place on May 17th, but it very well may get pushed back to a date in June.
In 2012, Rios was scheduled to face Gamboa. The fight fell apart after Gamboa no-showed the entire promotional tour. There was a financial dispute between Top Rank and Gamboa. A legal battle followed, with 50 Cent buying out Gamboa's contract from Top Rank.
