      HBO execs aren't boxing guys. They are business guys. They don't know that Uchiyama is the real deal like we do. They just don't recognize him as a name that will get ratings.

      One thing I like about Espinoza is that he's actually a boxing guy and enjoys the sport.

        Well if they do it in Macau and the Casino comps it.......
        HBO's loss.

        Uchiyama and Miura ain't getting any love.
        Uchiyama looked vulnerable in his last fight too

          Boxing Is Overflowing With Ego's, Protected Fighters

          All these hurt who's and everything is all about the money. Boxing has gotten quite disgusting that way, thanks to Roy Jones Jr & Floyd Mayweather Jr.

            Arum and Garcia camp ( mainly Robert not Mikey)never wanted the fight. They knew everyone was asking for it so tried to make it seem like they had a legitimate interest but " Gamboa was pricing himself out" . That was suppose to be the reason for why it wouldn't happen except Gamboa shut it down yesterday when he said he'd accept "whatever ". Now they need a new reason . Bob doing damage controll trying to justify this. He needs Mikey to be a star and doesn't want to risk a loss against Gamboa who he doesn't promote . Not hard to figure out.

            At least HBO isn't being fooled on this one ..

              I noticed that too. Gamboa could have priced himself out then changed his tune once it became apparent that Top Rank was losing interest in the fight.

                I think we'll see Mikey Garcia lose pretty soon. He's swimming in a pool of sharks in Takashi Uchiyama, Yuriorkis Gamboa, Miguel Vazquez, Terrence Crawford, and Richar Abril. If Garcia got through all of them or at least 3 out of the 5 without losing then I'd definitely proclaim him one of the best pound for pound.

                  Bob Arum, Golden Boy and the bunch of SubChampions afraid of loosing are kidnapping the sport. What a shame.

                      Arum

                      Arum is worse for boxing than Don King. Maybe he will drop dead in China or on a mountain like his son.
