Besides Diaz-Katsidis, if it ever happens, a similar action-packed bout I would love to see is between popular prospect, Yuriorkis Gamboa, and speedy brawler Joan Guzman. Like Diaz-Katsidis, these two would go at each other's throats and throw voluminous amounts of punches, it could very easily end in a TKO. I saw Gamboa fight on youtube and the first thought that crossed my mind was Joan Guzman. Their styles are extremely similar with speed, power, and an elusive defense. Not to mention, they're both cocky and flamboyant in the ring and love to stalk their opponents. I know Gamboa is extremely young and a title fight at this point may be premature, but he's hungry and very dangerous with his KO ratio. If Guzman gives this guy a chance, it would be an entertaining night.
My Fav Boxers:
1) Ricardo "El Matador" Mayorga
2) Jose "Quiebra Jicara" Alfaro
3) Roman "Chocolatito" Gonzalez
4) Juan "Baby Bull" Diaz
5) Edison "Pantera" Miranda

Gamboa isn't really that young. I think he's 26 and with all his high level amatuer experience in Cuba he should be ready for a title fight soon. Your right though Gamboa does remind me of Guzman. That fight would have amazing hand speed and foot speed in it from both fighters. Maybe down the road the fight could happen and if it does it should be a good one.
