    Comments Thread For: Soto Will Be Paid Some Despite Gomez Fight Cancelation

    Humberto Soto trained to make weight for his fight with Frankie Gomez, only to have that fight be called off when Gomez came in overweight. Gomez was 6.5 pounds over the original contractual limit of 141, 2.5 pounds over a new limit the camps had agreed upon after Gomez had informed them that he would not be making weight.

    That means no fight for Soto. Fortunately for him, he will get at get some money.

    “Humberto’s got money already. We gave him an advance,” said Eric Gomez, the vice president and head matchmaker for Golden Boy Promotions. He would not disclose how much Soto got paid and would be allowed to keep. [Click Here To Read More]

      Nothing but the right thing to do. Soto was responsible in filling the end of his contract and I would not had advised him to fight somebody that overweight.

      I hope they take it away from the other guy and let him be n the negative in his next fight

            Seems like GBP has handled this about as well as they could.

            Frankie Gomez pissed off a lot of people this week.

                    **** Frankie Gomez! He should go fight Chavez Jr in the battle of the fat asses, and they can both come in at whatever weight they choose.

                    I'm glad Soto at least got a bit of compensation but I hope he sues Gomez for more.
