      Because, it would have 3 different promoters. And, I'm pretty sure one of the promoters would want the main event so they can get the main event money.

      It it was just 2 promoters then yea why not...But, 3? Will make it very difficult.

              Agree 100%. Berto Vic the main.

                Gamboa hasn't even made his 130lb debut. He could still pull it off, but he's at a HUGE disadvantage. I mean he did struggle against Salido. I'd rather see Ortiz and Berto go at it again.

                  Awwwww.....ok...if I gotta' pick, I'll go with Gamboa/Rios because it's likely to be a helluva crazy fight and it's time for Gamboa to become a big name. Or not.

                  This fight is a step in that direction, imo and as such is important to the sport in general.

                  Chances are Ortiz/Berto 2 will be a highly entertaining repeat of Ortiz/Berto 1, which I thought was a great fight. But what will it really mean?

                    I would go with Ortiz-Berto, Because of their history/first fight and the fact that both are at 147 with something to prove, I dont mind Gamboa-Rios but would have liked to see Gamboa fight even once at 135 to make me want it even more.

                      Both on Double header on WCB. HBO owes it to us. This year alone morales vs maidana and Hopkins vs Dawson SHOULD NVER HAVE BEEN ON PPV!!! I thought back in 2009 HBO had a good thing going where they put Marg vs Mosley on WCB and the first PPV fight was hatton vs pac in may. **** Hbo and their ppvs. They owe us both fights for FREE on the same night.
