    I'd love to agree on the 147 part, but I don't think Gamboa's frame can handle it. I think his outer limit is 140...and that's pushing it. He'd look like a mini-James Toney at welterweight. lol

      Martinez has never fought at 168, but Floyd is a 154lb champ. So the comparison is moot.
      So now titles mean something now? 154 is Floyd 5th weight class, 168 would be Sergio's 4th weight class.

      Also didn't PAC when a title at 154?

      IMO @154 Floyd would beat Sergio at 154, I can't speak on him fighting at 160 because Floyd has never fought at that weight

      • Either way I just want him back in the ring. I'm one who is never really sure how old the cuban fighters are, so I hope we didn't miss out on much of his prime years.

          I don't think the boxers' ages are questionable. The baseball players...that's a different story. lol

          What does concern me is how old some of the best Cubans are. A guy like Rigondeaux, at 31, has relatively little prime left. Meanwhile, he's a rookie pro. I agree, the sooner Gamboa gets back in the ring the better. We're all missing out on an amazing talent. Guys like him are uncommon.

            Titles as a boxing fan has always meant something to me. Well the 4 world title anyway & the Ring of course.

            At 154 is where I'd like the fight, never mentioned 160.

            Like I said if Pacman won't fight a healthy Cotto there's no reason to assume he'd fight Martinez, hell he won't even fight Floyd in his weight class.

            • It would be a start.

              He needs to put some big wins together.

              • Even though Gamboa is a P4P talent, he's not worthy of being in the top 10 right now because he hasn't beaten anybody in a long time. If Broner beats him I'd rank him 11 or 12.

                • Im still failing to see peoples logic. So... because Broner just failed to make 130lb, he gets to fight a 126lber at 135lb to become a p4p elite?

                  Seriously. How does this make any sense what so ever to people?

                  • God it would have been funny is BushBaby was around at certain points in other era's, my god I wonder he would have said about certain fighters.

                      If Broner and Gamboa end up fighting, the better man will win. I just hope it happens at 135 once Gamboa has a fight there first.
                      Actually yes. Mayweather made extensive use of his superior reach.
