I think Gamboa thought he was signing with a Mayweather/50 cent promotional company instead of just 50 cent by himself. Hopefully, 50 cent sells the contracts to a promoter who can get these guys in the ring consistently.

He thought it was going to be 50 Cent/Mayweather/TMT. Remember, Gamboa was hanging out with Floyd and 50, showing him all that money, then Floyd went to jail and 50 signed Gamboa. Floyd gets out of jail, 50 is talking about let's run this company and Floyd was like nah homie, I'm with Al Haymon, thus the end of their relationship and the birth of 50's boxing company. Gamboa, naively assumed he could trust his new friends and probably learned a cold lesson that there are no friends in boxing.
Damn shame it played out that way as he was set to fight an undefeated Rios and surely would have won, which would have been a massive win for him. Top Rank would have then put more into Gamboa and got him bigger fights, hell, even a Pacquiao fight isn't out of the realm of possibilities.Last edited by ИATAS; 01-26-2016, 09:30 PM.Comment

One thing I learned working in the boxing industry.
Is the fighters more often than not, are worse than the managers and promoters.
We always think of them as victims, and many are, but you rarely hear about how much scumbag **** these fighters try to pull off on promoters.
The managers are actually the worse, IMO. Fighters second worse, than promoters.Last edited by AddiX; 01-26-2016, 10:08 PM.Comment
