Well then he has to pull a pacman and chomp through the divisions

Arums is full of BS but he does have a point when he says that HBO is willing to put money into crappy fights like Hopkins/Pascal and a boring fighter like Alexander but they don't want to pay up for a matchup like Juanma/Gamboa.

juanma/gamboa>>>>bradley/khan, pascal/hopkins and maidana/morales(lol). hbo just needs to put up the money.

Question is - DID ARUM PRESENT THIS FIGHT TO HBO OR SHOWTIME??? Or is he just ASSUMING they won't pay much for it??????

All Arum have said are all CRAPS! except that one... HBO also full of craps, they paying crap fights/fighters but this Juanma/Gamboa fight deserves more than the fights you mention! I hope showtime step in so this bull**** Arum dont have any more excuses!!!

Gamboa should just switch and sign with GBP, Arum is a pain in the ass.

then juanma vs gamboa won't ever happen.

Money, Money, Get them Paid and do the Fight 55% Juan Ma 45% Gamboa, Juan Ma is the Bigger Draw

hbo is spending less nowadays so i wouldn't be surprised if they don't want to put up 3 million for this fight. they didn't even want to pay 1.5 million for cotto vs vanes and cotto was the fighter with the highest ratings last year.

[el malo]

both GBP and Top Rank have co-promoted past PPV's so i don't see how it won't happen.

c'mon son! you know about the beef between top rank and gbp. c'mon son!

What beef? .
