Comments Thread For: Brandon Rios on Gamboa: You Can't Make a Coward Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Brandon Rios made it clear Richard Abril isn’t the only Cuban-born boxer he doesn’t respect as their lightweight title fight approaches.

Rios was supposed to partake in the biggest fight of his career Saturday night in Las Vegas. Instead of readying for a heavily hyped HBO main event against another undefeated fighter, Rios (29-0-1, 22 KOs) is preparing to face a comparatively anonymous substitute who literally talked and shoved his way into their 12-round fight for the WBA lightweight championship Rios lost on a New York State Athletic Commission scale Dec. 2 at Madison Square Garden.

Gamboa did more for Rios by pulling out of the fight than anything he could of done by fighting Rios. Not showing up for the press tour put more eyes on Rios. More than anything that hes done in the ring. Too bad this fights on PPV. I dont know one person ordering up this fight. Does anybody know if HBO is re-airing this fight?

You have to have absolutely no life to pay $54.95 for this card. I'm a huge JMM fan, but I will not pay that much to watch him beat up on some obscure champ from the Ukraine. Its insane that this is even on PPV.

what a punk, still trying desperately to get Gambia. It's like Chavez Jr. Calling punking Rios. Rios should fight Khan.

I understand Rios disappointment. But you can't keep crying about the dude this long. Just let it hang. The guy's two weight classes below you. No point crying over spilt milk. You've got bigger fish to fry.

That's funny I had a dream that pacman said the same thing, of course not to Gamboa.

[King Jaffe Joffer]

How are you gonna call Gamboa a coward when youre 2 weight classes above him. Rios sounds like a clown..
Is he gonna start calling Abner Mares and DOnaire cowards for not fighting him??

If hes such a tough guy running his mouth, fight Gamboa at a 133lbs catch weight, if not close your fuccing mouth
