    Its a ***** move by Arum for the fans, but its a valid concern for Top Rank. They dont want to (possibly) feed one of their upcoming talents to Gamboa if there is a possibility he could leave. Gamboa is close to Mayweather and Arum knows it. Mayweather would probably advise Gamboa to get as far away as possible from arum if he wants to make alot of money and GoldenBoy wont hesitate to toss TONS of money Gamboa to bring him over.

    That being said It would really suck if Gamboa/Rios didnt happen..... But a possible Gamboa/Broner fight happeninig in the future is awesome. Would probably will have to do the telecast in slow motion to keep up with all that speed.


    These are all "if", you can bet you ass TopRank wont lose Gamboa with out a fight.

          I think Yuri would be better with Golden Boy.

            Just playing devil's advocate here, but why did he let Miguel get a big payday against a TR fighter, without resigning before the fight? Granted Cotto fighting a past prime Margarito is a lot different than taking the "0" of a young, fan-friendly, Mexican-American fighter.

              As said many times before....Arum brings nothing but evil to the sport of boxing.

                  Cuz Bob doesn't care about Margarito. He cares about Rios, though.

                    This has got to be a rumor a lot of people are waiting for the Gamboa/Rios fight.

                      Margarito was getting the payday he was pretty much cashing out on fighter that lost the last 2 out 3 fights and would likely lose to any ranked fighter at 154
