      He didnt pull him out of a signed fight and he did it to fight Pac.

      Gamboa is pulling out to fight who?

          and what exactly has Mayweather done with it's fighters? short of Vargas can you even name more than one?
          Vargas is the first big fighter that Floyd had...He's now fighting on his own dates...Mayweather promotions is just making their mark, but it takes time...look at how far theyve gotten...Deandre been on a one yr layoff, and now all of a sudden he's about to fight K9 for a belt, and he just got on showtime...Im impressed with Mayweather Promotions myself, because fighters start promotional brands all the time, but they mostly use it to promote themselves....Oscar is probably the only fighter I can think of that built an entire ship to contain a BEVY of fighters

            So he pulled out of a terrific rios match up to possibly fight Broner in maybe a year

            I honestly dont know where any of the 130 are signed but he's gonna face them in the meantime?

            This is like setting up a Juamna match all over again from the beginning but with Broner

              i dont like it, and i really dont agree with it at all. but im just speculating as to what he saw or what he was possibly told. the rios fight was very dangerous fight for him so mebbe he decided he wasnt as good as we all thought?

                There's someone that's made two or three threads saying Gamboa might pull out. That poster deserves a lot of credit.

                  Manny wont move up 3lbs to fight Cotto but you expect Yuri to move up 2 weight classes to fight Rios? Who is a huge LW to say the least.

                    In comparison to other new found promotion companies of his counterparts.. MP Promotions, Cotto Promotions, Hatton Promotions, Calzaghe Promotions, Square Ring Promotions, Mosley Promotions and the list goes on. Mayweather Promotions is certainly making strides,
