    This seems as a hefty price for Rubio, but it still remains a golden opportunity to enter the spotlight. The bout is scheduled to proceed as planned, and it still promises to be an action filled bout between two strong power punching fighters. If Rubio does in fact lose the bout, not only would he have not gained as much money as he should, but he also gets another loss in his record.

    Whether this affects Rubio’s performance remains to be seen.
