Rios vs. Gamboa on 4/14 on HBO

He is willing to stay at 135 for Rios and only Rios. Steve Kim is saying that he is hearing the fight is a go. So we'll see what happens. You mean Gamboa? if thats the case then i like that.

Wow major balls on Yuri if this goes ahead.Can see it being two seperate fights though to hype it up

nah Luis is just trying to hype guys who not accustomed to hyping theirselves I can vouch he is a pretty steady guy and has always shown respect to people he respects haven't dealt with his father too much but Jr is all class

between he and the DiCubas they've cornered the Cuban fighter market my boy Luis Jr is good peeps Oner on the other hand is just awful and partially which is why it moved from Home Depot in Carson and in March to Mandalay in Vegas in April. Brandon really wants it to be Gamboa so he can move on but says if his team says one more then Gamboa he will do it he has a lot of trust in his team Great insight all the way around, Eaner! Thanks! From the looks of things, a clash between Brandon and Yuri appears to be a real possibility, not just a pipe-dream. And it's interesting to know that you vouch for DeCubas. I'm fairly certain that Luis puts a lot of words in his fighters' mouths. I've suspected that it's done simply to hype their promotion, which is his job; but in this game, you have to wonder if DeCubas does it just because he's another slimeball promoter.

lol this guy is so corrupt it's shameful. From ringing the bell himself n the danny williams fight, to bribing judges, to getting shot the guy, smh I hate this guy. He really loves signing these cubans. I assume it will all come down to HBO and how much money they are willing to put up? between he and the DiCubas they've cornered the Cuban fighter market my boy Luis Jr is good peeps Oner on the other hand is just awful and partially which is why it moved from Home Depot in Carson and in March to Mandalay in Vegas in April.

hbo needs to force this fight to happen. enough of tuneup city. gary russel jr vs bat nguyen..............just no. berto's entire career until ortiz............just no. um both of those fights you mentioned are on Showtime not HBO

Gamboa is only co promoted by top rank.hes also promoted by this German guy Ahmet Oner and a fight between the two is being discussed as well as separate bouts

Gamboa is only co promoted by top rank.hes also promoted by this German guy German guy is a turkish guy called Öner, who also speaks german, but arena boxpromotion doesn't do boxing in germany anymore. Rios is a lot bigger but with that defense Gamboa hits him at will.

The Brandon Rios hype train will soon be hijacked. One of the most overrated/overhyped fighters I've ever seen.

No way this fight happens now! And isnt Bam bam moving to 140 after what happen with him last time out? He is willing to stay at 135 for Rios and only Rios. Steve Kim is saying that he is hearing the fight is a go. So we'll see what happens.

is gamboa p4p #3 if he wins this? You can put him wherever you like on your P4P list.

i would without a doubt pick gamboa to win this fight. rios gets way way way WAY too much credit. never liked him and always thought he was a hypejob. he has to starve himself to fight in a division that will guarantee him wins. if he goes to 140 or higher, we wont be hearin much more of him anymore believe me

is gamboa p4p #3 if he wins this?

I don't think people realize how big the size advantage rios has. Man I like Gamboa and rios but I think Gamboa is being fed to the lions here. Gamboa is a lion.

Exactly and sadly, it sounds like seperate bouts.

If Rios can make the weight healthy. I like him to win this fight. But, looking at his last fight where he looked drained and still didn't make 135. If he does make 135, he might be drained enough where Gamboa could win this fight IMO.

, another 5 years until we see this match up.
