"If he's getting 1.5 then I should be getting at least that much or more. I think I'm worth more than Gamboa at this point."

So he's admitting that he lied about Gamboa pricing himself out. When in actuality he (Mikey) is the one pricing himself out. Yup, what we all knew already.

so mikey was gonna get paid what hes worth and the spineless cuban wouldent take a paycutt like he said in all his tweets to make the fight happened. What a coward.

[Russian Crushin]

They were offering Gamboa 1.5 and mikey only 1 mil? Why?

[lizard_man]

mikey did the right thing and said it best "in the end, it's us who get in the ring"

I think you'd be surprised how much control Gamboa actually has with match making and making deals with top rank. This is just the epitome of stubborn business men who can't make a damn deal. Gamboa is still signed under 50 cent right?

Same Reason why he only fights once a year... gamboa asks for way too much money and then takes a fight to make some money so he can sit and wait again. B.S purses all around....
