      Gradovich is exciting and has support from the Mexican fanbase in Cali while Shiming has a unheard of fanbase with the most populated country on earth. Not a great deal of effort involved in promoting these two.

        Yep. It's too bad when show business and money trump true boxing talent. Move on down the road Rigo, you deserve better than the shoddy treatment you're getting from Arum.

          Zou was undoubtedly a good Olympic boxer as he was 2-time gold medalist, but the way I looked at his fight with Valenzuela in his pro debut, he is far from a good fighter, and worst, I always believes Valenzuela won the fight. Though understandable that his fights held and marketed mainly in populous China, still I couldn't imagined of being heralded as the main card of the events while Estrada and Gradovich will be both defending their world titles in this next event in China on July 27. The least Zuo can get should be a supporting event card. Well, this how this prestigeous boxing championship should be, as being altered with money-wise business! We lauded Bob Arum of his craftiness to money-talks!
