This will not be a reasonably competitive bout due to the fact Gamboa's leagues much better than the 28-year-old Feranas. It is more of a fight that Bob Arum has added in to make sure the large quantity of Filipino boxing supporters that will be buying the fight card on Pay-per-view, along with all the Filipino fanatics out there that will be viewing from all over the world.
Including Farenas to the fight card will ensure it is more exciting for a lot of the Filipino fanatics of Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao.
