My sources from Miami tell me the fight is off!!!

Honestly, all any fighter has to say is "Blame Bob Arum." Then everyone on this site immediately jumps on that, "Yeah, f*** Bob Arum. Who cares if he was doing something right for once, f*** him, the other guy is right."

Wait so they sold us tickets to a fight they knew was never gonna happen? If true then fuck Top Rank. People request time off work, made travel plans, bought tickets, etc. Gamboa never signed the contract and they still announced the fight to black mail him into it? If this is true, then Gamboa did the right thing. that is my understanding why did abril get invited to the press conference few days before monday by carl moretti? they had to know, my peeps in miami tell me its all a set up. anounce gamboa rios sell a ****load of tickets which they have and then make gamboa look bad and have abril come in and punk rios and all of a sudden we got rios vs abril

He says he knows the details but couldn't tell me, all duke said was blame Arum and Oner. According to him gamboa has been f'ed over by them. Gamboa wants to be independent kind of like floyd, the problem is oner and arum want to tie him up for another 5 years, gamboa doesnt want to sign this. They tell me that this whole thing has been a set up to make gamboa look bad, apperently oner has been ripping gamboa off for a while. Basically to sign this fight gamboa must need to sign an extension also, gamboa did not want to do this. Top Rank set this whole thing up so that gamboa would look bad since he is leaving them anyways. Wait so they sold us tickets to a fight they knew was never gonna happen? If true then fuck Top Rank.

Thanks for all the inside info throughtout this situation bro. :hail: Wish all boxing fans could've seen it when tickets went on sale.

gamboa just lost all my respect screw him

Well I officially think the fight is off 100% now. Hopefully Gamboa at least gets away from TR and signs with Mayweather Promotions and GBP. The beef I have with Gamboa right now is that if he was having trouble with TR and everything, he shouldn't have even entertained the Rios fight, let alone sign off on it. If he was having issues with TR, he should have just went the Floyd route with him and GBP. I'm sure they could buy out his contract. But, he signed the Rios fight, and now looks god awful pulling out. He's not afraid of Rios at all, but this is a bad move.

wack!/..... hes going money may style duck and slip lol

wack!/.....

Will wait and see. Gamboa's been warned by his own team this would be career if he chose not to fight. On the other hand there are rumours Gamboa has already signed with Mayweather.

"Gamboa es un Puto" - Brandon Rios

For instance the ongoing saga between TR and GB. It is stopping so many decent fights happen due to greed and stubborness. Bob Arum is a control freak, why doesnt he just let Gamboa go on to better his career. If he cared about boxing then he would not threaten to destroy such a talented boxer's career. Surely Gamboa being able to fight is a positive for boxing. Saying Arum cares about the sport of boxing is like saying Hilter cared about human rights.

never bought into this fight happening when Arum puts together a fight the boxing fans WANT to see then you know something fishy is going on

One of the few instances where i actually hope Arum does fvck up someone's career WAR ARUM!!!! LMAO

Fkk that snake bob arum just screwed the fans yet again, is that abril thing fo sure, i must say that i did buy into the hype of that set up brawl for a minute

Gamboa the coward. Lets all call him this from now on, He has to know action have consequences.

"My sources from Miami" Wasn't that a line from Scarface? could be who knows

"My sources from Miami" Wasn't that a line from Scarface?

This would be an Epic fail, I was going to buy tickets and pulled back for some reason. I hope this fight still happens, but it seems like a Fail.

...........................................F*** this sport right now. I'm going to need some time to get over this. The first time in a while I get genuinely excited, and there you have it. I'm furious, I can barely type right now.
