No doubt.

I'd pick Marquez even now to k.o Gamboa with ease.

Gamboa is a hardcore hbo hypejob. This should be evident within the next few years when he's forced to start fighting real fighters.

[lopez36]

the one thing i don't like about gamboa is he doesn't go to the body.

[mexicali]

Its just a matter of time. I'd still fancy gamboa over juanma though. But gamboa isn't what hbo is hyping him up to be, and bob arum.

[KILLA RIGHT]

You think gamboa was impressed when concepcion dropped juan ma? Or when cordoba beat cc? Everyone overeacts after a fight. Settle this **** in the ring

[ghost deini]

i wasn't that impressed either to be honest this guy salido would've probably been knocked out by juanma before he knew what happened

gamboa' speed a footwork would still cause problems for lopez and caballero but right now i don't think he's quite ready for that step up in class

Any time you have a fighter that approaches his opponents with his hands down it's a recipe for disaster.

Thing is with Gamboa he's done this throughout his career which tells me there's not much improvement as so many claim.

[the mesiah]

He does do a lot of amateur Shit and I know it's his style but when he puts them hands down, he's just looking to get knocked down at least once a fight it seems, off balance or not .Ismael salas hasn't taught him **** IMO and hasn't improved.

um juanma got caught off balance he wasnt hurt he got up at 1 like come on jaunma took the filipino out faster n harder then any1 else but gamboa hugged too much his power n speed was sloppy his last 2 fights lopez would ko gamboa hes bigger stronger n has a chin but gamboa has speed but he puts his hands down cuz hes too ****y i like gamboa but after his last 2 fights hes losing me as a fan if he doesnt correct his mistakes

[throbk1974]

i wonder if Juanma was impressed with Gamboa's KO win over Rogers Mtagwa, who had him on ***** street?
