[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The negotiations are going well for a May 17th encounter between undefeated fighters Mikey Garcia and Yuriorkis Gamboa. Top Rank and Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson are negotiating the details, with the HBO televised fight taking place at The Forum in Los Angeles, California.

"The negotiations are ongoing. Obviously there are things that we have to agree on, but everything is going well for May 17th. Among other things, we are negotiating the weight. I want to move up to 135-pounds, and he wants to fight at 130-pounds," Garcia said.

They need each other.

No need for Mikey to get all big time. But I certainly understand. I'm sure its still very fresh in his mind that when they were prospects, Gamboa and Juanma were the golden boys and he was treated like a f.uckin' cabdriver.

Yea he said he is going to fight him and it will establish himself as the top guy. Garcia is down for it.

Co sign
Should Mikey beat Gamboa , it will be the most talented and biggest name fighter on his resume. Mikey is moving up pretty fast, he's letting him know he's the A side. Should be a very good match , dont underestimate Gamboa.

I'm a fan of the RGBA camp but I think they're going duck Gamboa. They probably aren't even scared of him. I just feel like they won't do it because of lack of respect in the trash talk and the way Gamboa did Rios. Every time Robert Garcia is asked about it he's noticeably unwilling to say they want it
