@Jme1228 I'm all for boxers getting paid, but he was going to make 1.1 million for this fight. How much $ can GBP or May Promotions offer?

@linusesq Gamboa is a solid fighter, but is he a PPV star? How can GBP or MP justify the amount of $ he will think he's worth moving forward

Interviewed @Brandon_Rios1 after Gamboa was a no-show and is passing up a million $ payday + $100K bonus for the winner http://pic.twitter.com/owAqCQ1i
Rios is getting top billing and probably getting a bigger purse fighting a FW coming up two weight classes when he is too big for 135 to begin with its sweet deal for Rios since we all know he would lose that 0 at 140 so why the **** wouldn't he show up?
I dont know, you tell me
Which is why Rios is the one not showing up at pressers :lol1:

Even if he wins he'll never be popular with most boxing fans because he has no KO power, fans abore light hitting boxers that can't box either. It's OK if you're a Whitaker or a Maywether Jr. because they may not KO their opponent but at least they'll put on a boxing clinic for the fans to enjoy.
Bradley's only skill is speed, he has nothing else.
.......Sorry you see things that way :sad:

His skill is speed? That makes alot of sense.

Speed isn't a skill, it's an attribute. So if that's the case, then Bradley ain't **** then lol. You don't really believe that Bradley is that limited, do you?
Except his next fight will draw more than 1.2 million PPV buys and if he wins, he be the most popular man in boxing (even if only for a short while). Gamboa needs to get his head straight - he would use Rios' head for a speed bag...the reason not to fight can't be because of facing Rios, that's for sure.

Tim Bradley has 13 twitter followers and 6 real fans. He cant sell 500 tickets in his home town and his fights suck, nobody wants to see him fight.
Gamboa outsells more than Timothy, Gamboa would sell more in Timothy's home town, since there's tons of Cubans in Florida.

But he still has a contract with them for sometime, so i don't understand why he is risking spending 2 years doing nothing
could Gamboa try to find a way to buy himself out or something? Maybe that's why Gamboa was talking to Mayweather
hey who knows, if I'm not mistaken I know Nate Campbell had some promotional issues with Don King, and he had to wait it out
but maybe Gamboa is looking at other alternatives to ending his business relationship with Top Rank
time isn't on his side as he's already 30, and if his only options are fight or sit out, sitting out would be pretty close to career suicide.
