looks like Top Rank is already promoting the replacement fight for Rios

[AdamantiumPI]

Abril said it himself he was invited by carl moretti to attend the conference few days ago. matte rof fact rey sanchez the guy who shot the video was talking about rios vs abril over the weekend, but i paid no attention to that

I think you were the one that said Gamboa had to sign an extension to fight Rios like Cotto had to, to fight Chavez Jr. and Pacquiao. I don't blame Gamboa for wanting to leaving scumbag Arum.

They knew the fight wasn't happening. I don't buy Gamboa all of a sudden didn't show up and then some random dude shows up ready to jump in for a fight.

I don't want to see Rios - Abril

D@mn that is some OG **** Arum just pulled. Get fans to buy tickets to a fight that wasn't gonna happen at bigger fight price then replace the opponent with a guy who would have brought ticket prices down. But now all the fans who bought the big fight tickets can't get a refund. Arum paper chasin for real!!!

dam my dude...same thing happened to me during the first time Wlad and Haye was gonna lock up..I got my tickets early and then Haye pulled out and Wlad ended fighting Chaguev....I didn't return my tickets and I didn't bother going to that fight...I just took the lost...charged it to the game!!

This all seems a bit strange.

It all fell into place a little too perfectly. If they knew he wasn't coming, but another fighter is just there on hand....strange. Hey-ho, **** happens.
