After the disappointment Lame ass promotion SMS has turned out to be I was pleasantly surprised browsing HBO GO and watched this new nice little promo piece sounds like he is back in their good graces after the sh*t he has pulled if you ask me they are very forgiving.
This i think you hit the nail on the head. You could actually argue that all the dumb moves his made that have fked up his career are all about money, to make money you have to be willing to invest money that includes leech promoters and a good trainer, but when you've never had money or never been around the pro game before and come from nothing (Which is funny if you think about it Olympic gold medalists broke man without hope only in Cuba) it's easy to make stupid decisions.
I'm all for saving money, but these guys are just penny wise and pound foolish. It's one thing to wanna save a few bucks at Costco, it's another thing to fuck with a multi-million dollar career. I hope Gamboa wakes the hell up.
Well they're letting him fight a 50th ranked LW on their network, so it looks like they have
Is Perez really that Sh*tty of a match up? I know he gave that Bahama mama the guy that upset Angelo Santana his only loss and the guy is undefeated to me it seemed more like they are putting him with high risk no reward guys. But i haven't seen any of his fights you could be right for all i know.
Gamboa has wasted his prime years, its a shame because he is extremely talented but should have fought a real name by now in a big fight.. no juanma, no broner, no burns, no vazquez, no rios
It seems like everytime i see him fight, he is just returning from a long layoff and its always a tuneup..Then he has another long layoff
Please stay active
I've got a real problem with Yuri being trained by his father. Gamboa is a major talent. Carlos may be good, but an exceptional boxer like Yuri requires an exceptional trainer. It's lie they're trying to save money or something. SMH

ok, i gotcha yeah, i only named him because him, froch-kessler, GGG, Geale are all getting alot of play on hbo since GBP left for showtime.. Which i like because i was sick of hot fights like bute-froch not being shown on hbo
Well those guys do deserve the premium networks obviously showtime making a move isnt a bad thing after all we all, might end up getting more boxing we want, competition is always a good thing in the market place. Well let me fix that except when Is that Top Rank VS GBP childish sh*T that prevent us from seeing some match ups other than that me likey the competition.
P.s. For the record i have been watching since the 80's so im on my fourth decade of boxing

Lol take it easy kid probably been watching him longer than you boxing, and you saying International as in "foreign" like the other guys you mentioned makes no sense he does not fit that, he has been living and fighting in the US since 07 more like he landed in Germany to start his career because Arena Box promotions(Oner)was the guy that got him out.
The plan was always to live grow and become a star here , he doesn't match the description of fighting nobodies all over the world and then try to make a wave in the US market when they are ready and be stars like Euro fighters you mentioned are doing at all.

Um, maybe because we was a world amateur standout, from cuba, started pro in germany, landed in the U.S...
Hopefully that clears it up for you since he is in your avatar and u seem to not know anything about him
Not sure what else he can do to become international

That fizzled out because of the bogusness of the people with the "papers" the MLB (which was the only investigation into it) discredited it they tried to buy the papers to prove they where legit by a lot of money but the guys wouldn't come forward out of the shadows and sell obviously afraid of fraud law suits, thats why nobody talked about it after a while and nobody got reprehended in the MLB ofc no1 here gives 2 sh*ts about facts lol.
If that's the case, then Gamboa's still my dude.
Gamboa's so fun to watch. Too bad he got caught up in the PED scandal. SMH.

HBO is just running out of talent since the GBP exodus....
Manny-rios in november, bradley-jmm in october, that leaves the cupboard pretty bare but the good thing is this has forced HBO to carry international fighters like gamboa, GGG, Geale, etc. If this was a few years ago, those guys would have never been given this much airtime on hbo

Like gamboa. He needs to take care of buisness saturday. Then take out either burns or vasquez at 135 then move up 140 to set up some big fights for himself. Hes already getting older so the time is now for him to make some noise.
True but i would have rathered he stayed at 126-130 thats where the good scraps are at at the moment instead he tried to chase Broner and it backfired .
nice i had not seen that
Saw it by accident browsing HBOGo i was actually looking to re watch the The Bradley vs Provodnikov fight saw it on the way there.
With HBO having already lost Mayweather & in effect Golden boy you would hope they are smart enough to try & keep somebody as good as Gamboa. Gamboa still has potential to be a much bigger star.
