Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather: Arum Treated Yuriorkis Gamboa Wrong

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

THE TRUE FAN TEST:

Anyone who sides with a promoter over a fighter is not a fan of the sport.

When did people become ArumTards?

Da hell?

The ArumTards are those who you call Pac-Tards as well. They support Arum cause he promotes their fighter yet he's the one fkin Pacquiao the most.

who cares? it's true arum is a greedy mofo but so is floyd. if floyd doesn't see great potential in gamboa i don't think he will be interested in him. he looks at gamboa as a future star and also a good business oppurtunity for his promotion and so he want to steal him away from top rank.

Who top name promoter wants to promote a ****ty fighter? Unless it's for feeding them to their prospects?

Are you seriously comparing Mayweather/De La Hoya to Gamboa? Those fighters left Top Rank when they were pay-per-view stars and they left on LEGAL terms. Gamboa can't even sell 100 tickets, has no real following and can't speak a word of English. And yet he was being offered 1.2 million to fight Rios.

Im sorry but Im willing to bet as soon as Gamboa leaves TR and goes with Mayweather Promotions/GBP (as we are all assuming he is) he will start being on Mayweather PPV's instantly. I bet he will be getting some fights in between Mayweather fights and will be put on Mayweather cards when the time comes around.

There are MayweatherTards too. Soon as Gmaboa tried to leave TR they all fell in love with him because he showed up at the May gym.



He isn't fighting anytime soon. That law suit will end a good few more months of his career. Perhaps he could be under May PPV's but he isn't, and age is catching up to him.

that's not the point i was trying to make dummy. you don't talk about helping other fighters when it's too obvious floyd is all about business wanting to promote gamboa. if you really want to help fighters, discover your own prospects and build them up. don't capitalize on fighters built up by other promoters and say you're just trying to help because it's simply not.

Age is nothing but a number bro. Gamboa is as fresh as a 21 year old.

Umm Floyd and Gamboa been friends for a WHIIIILLLEEE now. Way before this whole thing happened. Of course it's business, there's no friends when it comes to business and work but I can bet anything he won't be getting screwed like many have been by Arum.

Rios was actually offered less than Gamboa. You must not read many articles, and luckily you didn't gurantee it with your life because your mother would be calling a funeral director.

Rios took a cut in his pay to make this fight happen. In fact, he was taking significantly less than Gamboa to make the fight happen

got anything else you want to talk about that you have no idea what you're talking about?

Gamboa may have been offered a bigger overall purse, but I was taking into consideration that in addition to the standard 27% Top Rank cut, Gamboa also has to pay not one but two managers (Oner and Gonzalez,), each of whom, from what I understand, also take a fairly significant percentage. Combined with the standard payments to his trainer and cut man it wouldn't surprise me if Gamboa was losing more than half of what he makes per fight.

Mayweather is only going to fight 2 more years he said so himself.........it's wishful thinking that gamboa's career is moving foward with ''Mayweather Promotions'' even though Floyd's promotion company is as real as the tooth fairy

Things that ALL fighters have to pay for including Rios.
iirc, there's also a $100k winner bonus for this fight.

[Corelone]

You can't BOTH refuse to fight AND get paid.

That wasn't going to happen.

* He would have to sue for B-o-C to get paid.

Maybe so, but this way he's out of the money and s..t out of luck too.

[jtiger777]

The name floyd really ruffles feathers around here huh?

[pac2]

Damn yall are dumb Arum can tell yall anything and you will believe it. Of that 1.2 million Arum takes 27.5 percent of that yes 27.5 then take about 40% for taxes, then take whatever percentage Gamboas other promo company is taking Gamboa probably would have walked away with $ 200,000 that aint nothing. For the biggest fight of your life i want you to jump 2 or 3 weight classes but you are only going to end up with 200,000. Man Gamboa is a beast but they treat him like a prospect Mayweather's fighter Jesse Vargas is a prospect and get paid around 100,000 a fight but gamboa is like 30 or something and for his biggest fight he 's gonna walk away with around 200,000 man stfu. If anything Mayweather overpays his fighters you never hear none of his fighters go oh Mayweather is robbing me they are happy with what they are getting paid. That's why fighters are going to him. Floyd knows what they are going through cause he's a fighter. If that was suppose to be gamboas biggest payday and he was gonna end up with around 200,000 then imagine the little bit he was getting before then and he doesn't have that many fights i don't know how he was making it trust me Gamboa made the right move and even if he is out for 2 years i bet Mayweather probably gave him a million or 2 while he's not fighting and did you see gamboa pull up in that white bentley what is that worth 300,000 Gamboa doesn't have that type of money Mayweather brought it for him, Mayweather takes care of his fighters.
