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

[frosty-g]

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.

yeah, the 140lb-ers rather than guys WAY down the weight divisions

This is getting pretty annoying by Rios. Why is he still crying? He got a fight ahead of him in less than a week don't he?

Does he wanna fight Gamboa, a guy 2 weight classes below him, thinking he's gonna beat him and make a fame out of it before he moves up in weight and gets whooped?

This **** isn't even funny anymore, he sounds like a little kid crying and annoying.

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

News flash: Team Gamboa are the ones who called Rios out!!! Not the other way around. Rios never even had any intentions of fighting this guy before that (for the same reason, because Rios is a lightweight and Gamboa is a featherweight)... That's why Rios is so upset: First they call him out and now he pulls out.

I'm not a fan of Rios' personality be has every right to call Gamboa a coward. He agreed to fight Rios and then completely backed out. Wouldn't you be annoyed about it?

Not when it's your 100th time saying the exact same thing. Gamboa already responded to him and told him "Im a man. I don't talk about another man when they're not around." You figure Rios would be talking about his future... Talking about how he's gonna beat Abril and look for a future bout with JMM or Pacquiao or anything along those lines, you know? Instead he's still stuck on the past. I guess we should keep in mind that this could very well be Top Rank telling him to do all this talking tho, trying to smear Gamboa's career further. You could look at it either way I suppose.

I completely agree that this fight not happening is the best thing to happen to Rios. He'll be talking about this 4 years down the line.

they need to feed this bum to Maidana already.

What's supposed to be so dangerous about him??

The Racket Squad: Branded!

Will someone kindly request that Rios Shut Up.
We get his intense publicity campaign to arouse the Cuban population into paying to see him get beaten.

Gamboa made a business decision. It was hardly personal.
But just like his buddy Antonio Margarito, Brandon does not know when to stop verbally abusing an ancient horse.

I recall Margarito and Rios on HBO's 24/7 just before Tony was to face Pac.
Their lack of respect or dignity was profound.

Along with the Rios vs. Freddie Roach 'Parkinson's' offense, the vulgar Brandon has little to be proud of.

LOL really? If this guy was a "real man", he should have showed up at the press conference and face up to his responsibilities and commitments like a man and not play hide and seek like big puss! Gamboa brought all this hate and controversy(deservingly so) to himself by acting like an amateur instead of a professional! Furthermore, if you're tired of rios' rants about Gamboa, then maybe you should take it up with the reporters who keep asking rios questions regarding Gamboa!
