Comments Thread For: Gamboa No-Shows Rios Presser, Mayweather Talk Lingers

[Eaner0919]

How do they actually promote their fights? I heard they dont have a promotional license

they use Golden Boy's license

The Vargas Tyner fight was done with GBP

[The Big Dunn]

with Mayweather in your avatar it doesn't surprise me

and what exactly has Mayweather done with it's fighters? short of Vargas can you even name more than one?

Earner I know what you mean but getting a continuos spot on million selling ppv's aint easy and Bob already wouldn't let him ice Juanma. It does seem kinda odd choice I agree.

I hope we're all just overreacting and the fight will still push through, if not **** Gamboa, I hope Broner whoops his ass.

exactly...floyd can't even promote his own fights he has to hire gbp to do it. don't know what makes people excited about floyd signing up fighters.

idc what promoter he goes to honestly, if its floyd cool, im all for it, but pulling out of a fight isnt cool at all. its a ***** move. altho i didnt think he should fight rios in the first place, dont agree to fight him, have everything to go and then not show up to the presser. thats pretty unprofessional and im a big fan of gamboa.

Hard to disagree with this. I really like Gamboa too.

[leonthegee]

well,He should of rejected the fight b4 fans bought tickets and
scheduled that date for las vegas.Hopefully they work this out.

I agree with you there, but lets be honest here, TRs using Gamboa as a way to showcase Rios. I can understand if Yuri doesnt want to play ball. Thats all im saying.

Yes thats exactly what i thought

Weird why he would go there. Plus there just arent any interesting fights out there with them

[Boxxing]

Gamboa knows Rios will kill him.

He could have made this fight then move to Mayweather promotions. Obvious duck

Now the whole forum has an excuse to turn on Gamboa... Just last week, he was the baddest man on the planet but at the slightest hint he's aligning with Mayweather Promos, he turns into a "ducker" and a "coward"...

GTFOH... It seems to me that it's about business and not about being afraid... Like someone said earlier, Gamboa is 30 which means he has maybe a two or three year "prime" window to get his money...

We don't know anything about this man's contract situation with Top Rank but it seems that as soon as you make a business decision in boxing, you are labeled a ducker... It's ridiculous man!!
