    Arum: Donaire, Gamboa, and Rios all fighting eachother at lightweight

    Sorry if this has already been posted. I just came across it figured I'd share.

    After Gamboa fights as a lightweight, Donaire will be coming up to lightweight. I think they can fight at lightweight. About a year and a half will be good. Sometime next year we’ll see Gamboa fight for the lightweight title, probably against Brandon Rios."

    He also talks about the Ortiz-Mayweather fight; Donaire's future; and the fights at MSG

        Lol, Rios only has like 2 more fights at most at lw. Donaire isn't going to be at lightweight for about 2 years. And Gamboa I can see at lw soon.

          I call BS. Rios won't be around at 135 then no chance. We will prob see donaire vs Gamboa but I guess that's a couple years away.

            Typical Arum BS. None of this is going to happen. Arum is just going to talk about, but nothing will happen. Thats boxing for you.

              Arum must be a ******. You know how big Rios is LOL. I've seen a picture of Rios with Marquez and Rios look like a 147lbs fighter. Marquez was hella small compared to Rios, I'm suprise that Rios can even make 135.

                if LW isn't far too large for nonito (which i believe it is) he's a very special fighter

                its not really about the puncher as he moves up as much as the size of the opponents. i have seen him in a picture next to juanma and he looked a bit smaller than juanma. they were both clearly not in training camp shape.
                juanma will be a LW very soon.

                Rios is huge. he'll proably finish his career as a jr MW.
                he weighs 150 on the night of his LW fights.
                if donaire can hurt him seriously with those punches i'll be shocked and infinitely impressed. we'll see how his style adapts when he's not a great puncher. his fight against tyson marquez saw him trying to box as a southpaw and he didn't look terrific until he turned orthodox and went back to setting his feet and being a puncher.

                gamboa's got a bit of a different style
                he'd probably go the cutie rout at LW, where i can only assume he will keep his speed. (he walks into the ring at about 138 already for his fights at FW)
                i'm not sure he will be able to keep from getting walked down, but i think that's what he'll try.

                  Rios is moving up his frame is too large. Donaire really don't want any parts of Gamboa. Gamboa should move up after cleaning out his div also.

                    Isn't gamboa like 5'5? 130 would be pushing it
