    How's this for a Dec. 15th Top Rank card

    If I was Arum Id move the Lara-Vanes to December 15th. Lara is bound to do better numbers in Miami than Vanes in the California area. So how about:
    Bradley vs L. Peterson
    Gamboa vs A. Peterson
    Rigondeaux vs Arce/TBA
    Lara vs Vanes

    Since Bradley can't draw **** to flies my guess is Arum needs all the Cubans' help he could get since he's trying to make the card in Miami. Now I dunno how possible is this since he would have to get a network to televise all 4 fights as well. But I guess it's nice to wish.

    On paper its cool but you think their going to get enough gate revenue to pay Bradley, Peterson, Rigo, Gamboa, Lara and Vanes?

        You don't think Lara, Rigo and Gamboa can draw enough? I mean, how much do you expect Bradley to make fighting Peterson in freaking Florida...

          Lara vs Vanes is not gonna be on that Card. The other 3 I can see but I doubt they bring in anything close to the 25k Arum mentioned. Itll be 5k to 9k tops.

                Glen Tapia vs Brian Vera

                  They going to lose money on this event even with a light undercard.

                    You are just missing one thing, Cubans don't sell tickets, even in Miami.
