Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum is planning to pursue a featherweight showdown between unbeaten boxrs Chris John (44-0-2, 22KOs), of Indonesia, and, Cuban-born, former Olympic gold medalist, Yuriorkis Gamboa (19-0, 15KOs). John is the WBA's "super champion in recess" in the featherweight division. Gamboa, promoted by Top Rank, is the IBF champion and the current "super champion" of the WBA. The sanctioning body has ordered both boxers to fight.

John is ripe for the taking! Gamboa will overwhelm him with speed.

hopefully it gets done, interesting that john is getting the 55-45 split end of the purse bid.not jinxing it or anything ,but dont want to hear anymore injuries dealing with john. finally the wba gets to see who the super duper champ

He is Chris John after all, what would he be without the crazy injuries or sicknesses.

This is a very interesting match up....although John is a very good boxer with an awkward style, I think he's a little past his prime....don't get me wrong he's still dangerous and could end up outboxing Gamboa, I think the two fights with Rocky Juarez said a lot about him at this point in time

this would be a huge win for Gamboa

Gamboa KO via dengue fever!

He's not going to fight Rojas. Rojas is not 35 and he's never been stopped.

Dejalo quieto, keep thinking Rojas is soft.

John would take Gamboa to school early, but Gamboa wouldn't respect his power for too long before taking him out late.
