    See the latest article on Maxboxing..

    Unsurprisingly, fucking Top Rank are stringing the public along further, talking about allowing further time for a fight between Gamboa and Lopez, or Gamboa and/or Lopez vs. a dangerous fighter, to pass, so that it can "build up" or "marinate"...and will instead throw Lopez in with Elio Rojas...

    HBO should be pissed, having dedicated a BAD slot to this guy against Yordan, and having him pass with flying colours, they now have no one to put him in with...:shit:

    It is disappointing. The fight has potential. I'd like to have seen it. It seems all so needless, too, these unending hurdles.

    Gamboa supposedly wants 1 million. For all the criticism Juanma got for not fighting Caballero, we have to hold Gamboa to the same standard.

    Our Jake had a good article on this sort of thing a while ago on boxingscene

    Very annoying, it puts you right off this stream of set-up fights which are not evenly matched, makes you appreciate more the super six series regardless of whether each fight is classic or not

    I was always told you don't marinate a high quality steak.

    Who thought Arum would really put Gamboa in with anyone tough? keep dreaming guys, it's safe fights for Juanma and Gamboa for another year.
