Comments Thread For: Yuriorkis Gamboa Aims To Rejuvenate Career With PBC

He's a 37 year old jr. lightweight...

He's usually in good fights, but the clock has definitely run out.

Where did Loma fight Gamboa 3 years ago? Are you mixing him up with Rigo?

Gamboa was an option and it was declined. As everybody mentioned here, Gamboa had too much time off and it didn't look good fighting him anyway.

Somebody's about to get fed to Tank! Lol

At least it'll give us an idea as to whether or not Tank can deal with speed. Even at this age, Yuri is still quick, but he tends to take pictures after his shots and backs away with his hands down.

It'll be interesting.

I was amazed when I first read Gamboa signed a multi-fight deal. He’s been washed up for a while now. I guess these people think Yuri has enough left to be a reasonable opponent. I don’t know if even that’s true. He looks so bad now. Such a shame. Gamboa was beautiful to watch in his prime. Too bad we got to see so little of it.

They should have put him on that Lara and Ortiz card on Mar 2 2019
