Promoter Ahmet Oner of Arena Box is an expert in the area of Olympic champion Yuriorkis Gamboa (23-0, 16KOs). Gamboa turned pro with Oner in 2007 and fought several times in Germany before crossing over to the United States. Oner eventually brought him to Top Rank a few years later. Last year, Gamboa's mind became clouded after he began to hang out with Floyd Mayweather Jr. and The Money Team.
Gamboa began to believe that he was worth more money than others perceived him to be worth. He backed out from an April 2012 bout with Brandon Rios, where the Cuban boxer stood to make over $1 million dollars. Shortly afterwards Top Rank sued Gamboa for breach of contract.
In June 2012, a legal settlement was reached and Gamboa parted ways with Oner and Top Rank. He signed with rapper/promoter 50 Cent, who reportedly paid a million dollars to buy Gamboa out of his existing promotional contract. [Click Here To Read More]
