Comments Thread For: Yuriorkis Gamboa Eyes Lomachenko, Walters Bouts

Lol @ people still having hopes for Gamboa.

-_-;

Why we shouldn't? Just because he lost to Crawford who is very good and at least one but rather two sizes bigger than him at the same time?

[John Locke]

I wouldn't say he was outboxed at all. Dulorme was outthrowing him, not outboxing him, and Crawford was clearly content to let him while he landed his own shots and waited to up the pressure. The second he went at Dulorme the fight was over.

And no way was Dulorme up 4-1. He might have been winning 3-2.

Dulorme was in control and doing the cleaner work, with a sharper jab. I don't think Crawford was content on waiting, not for 5 rounds, you do that for maybe 1-2 rounds, not 5. Dulorme is a chinny and average fighter, he was never gonna win the fight, my point is Crawford isn't some masterful boxer.

As long as he stay boxing good chance of beating them don't try and slug away or get pretty in there but that's in his DNA doesn't know how to stick to game plan

remember crawford was 154 in the ring..if he slugs with lomo..lomo is the one who gets hurt..if he slugs with walters they both have a shot to get plugged up lol

i love the warrior in gamboa..screw weight classes he is looking for the best fights

crawford depends on adjustments..my question is..wat if the initial adjustment doesnt hurt a guy like it did with tomas...and my second question is wat if a fighter can ajust just as well...

i think u'll see that crawford will resort to dog like tactics if he's in there with a pure boxer..and thats is not bad..bc u box the ****er and **** the boxer...

but wat if the boxer that u are trying to **** doesnt mind **** whileh e boxes...
crawford is good but there is more to see..not masterful at all..dulerme shouldnt have been winning rounds tehw ay he was..he was outworking him

Fighting Crawford at 135 after a year long layoff was a very ****** move and a very bad move made by a bad promoter. Crawford was huge for 135 (he's a guy that's going to be fighting at 147) and Gamboa's ideal weight class is 126, 130 tops. There is a difference between being a warrior and being ****** & desperate (I say desperate because 50 Cent doesn't know what he's doing and was desperate for any decent fights which ultimately led to taking huge unnecessary risks for his best fighters and having long layoffs). 50 has damn near ruined Gamboa.

[Eff Pandas]

Lets make this **** happen!!! I'd like to see either or both of those fights get made.

u dont know if he's ruined as fighter until u see him in another top level fight again..truth is gamboa was controlling the fight and out of nowhere he gets hit and without be hurt he let his brawling tactics take over..and this is one of the reasons im not sold on crawford yet..he was getting a bit of a schooling from a much shorter fighter

[BigAlexSand]

I believe Gamboa is a threat to both. Gamboa has the physical attributes and skill to cause both big problems.

Both Gamboa and Lomachenko have elustrious amateur backgrounds. While Walters would have a good Size advantage but Gamboa would have the speed and skill to negate the size. Interesting to see if either on of these occur.

Agreed!!! Gamboa is a threat to anyone at 126-130. I say that to Lomo and Walters. Gamboa showed huge promise but has allowed layoff after layoff to deminish his career from one of Great Promise to now a What could have been much like Rigondeaux
