Anyone else looking forward to what Arum has to say?

[sdcluser]

honestly, that's what arum gets for trying to milk the juanma/gamboa fight.

this was bad matchmaking by TR which is otherwise great at it.

Especially after gamboa destroyed velasquez... juanma obviously tried to outdo gamboa, but juanma should've known that salido is a hard puncher and has never been KOed.

Uncle Bob got moded. He thought he could have milked a few more fights out of these guys and hype this **** up more. Oh well.....

**** that dirty old b*stard.

Seriously though, lets say next fight is Gamboa vs JuanMa. You got the typical, "Going through a divorce, lost focus, a former champ looking deep within himself, long dark halways, going to hell and back" rhetoric that makes us boxing fans forget the reality of a situation before we plop down $59.95. Wouldn't you still buy the fight? (If you were going to buy it in the first place, and not just stream it or download it anyway)

I guess my question is, how many people won't buy the fight now, that would have bought it early. Gamboa is still flawed, can still be flashed, lopez still has crazy power, the fight is still intriguing, but now its not two undefeated fighters...

This is what will happen.
Bob announces that its unfortunate, says he's going to file a formal complaint against the referee for that ridiculous stoppage when his fighter was not only fighting back, but winning the exchange, and the round, and had salido on the edge of being knocked TF out, probably accuse it of being rigged. makes a few other excuses.

Probably won't arrange a rematch with Salido, because there is no reason for it, that fight should be ruled a no contest for that poor stoppage etc etc.

Instead we'll move forward with Gamboa, and then maybe take back our title from Salido.

Damage control = done
