It would be a very interesting fight. Mikey would have to fight a very smart fight and not make any mistakes.
I think his style is a tough one for Gamboa because of his defense and patience. Of course Gamboa is the much better athlete in this fight.
We also haven't really seen Gamboa's chin tested, that would play another part in all of this.

I'd favor him against Garcia but patient methodical boxer-punchers are the antidote to unorthodox athletic fighters. Especially when they are one punch-punchers.

I regard Gamboa as a swarmer. He pot-shots from time to time, but he normally closes the distance delivering combinations with blazing hand-speed.

Gamboa a swarmer? I don't think so. He fights mostly from the outside and jumpis in & out with combos, he's not a swarmer, more like an in & out athletic fighter.
