i think gamboa and khan fight very offensively
and the general public really like that, so even if they get a few loss4es, i dont think they will fade into obscurity because of that.
whereas if the other 2 get a few losses i can definitely see them fading fast
I think all those four fighters are offensive minded.

Amir Khan will do fine.
Gamboa is most likely to fade into obscurity, wait and see.
Unfortunately, you might be right. I bet if he stopped draining himself to make weight he probably wouldn't get knocked down so much. He really should be fighting at 135, but then his power wouldn't be huge and his defensive flaws could lead to him getting outworked.
Update:
Yuriorkis Gamboa captured WBO NABO featherweight title with TKO10 win after getting knocked down in round 2
Bernabe Concepcion moves up to feather and captured the vacant WBC International featherweight title with a TKO5 win
Amir Khan won the vacant WBA International lightweight title with a TKO2 win
Abner Mares out with a torn retina.
Amir Khan, his chin will be his undoing unless he develops a defense.
No, his chin is his undoing period. Even the best defensive fighters get hit on occasion.
Kahn has the type of chin where he can be hurt by a punch that he blocks. He is up shit creek without a chin.
He got dropped dude...technicality doesn't change the fact that he got the 8-count:boxing:
In the fight tonight? Yeah I know he got dropped bud, I just said that. But his chin is far from Khan, at least that's what I think now. He has walked into some good punches and taken them well, but I think he has a bad defense for hooks and wide punches.
The times he was dropped by Jimenez and de jesus were more off balance while getting hit type knockdowns. He never looked hurt, but tonight he was rocked and he felt Rimerez's power even before the elbow shot. I seriously think he will go back to fighting wild and arrogant. Unless his camp and Promoters do something about it, which they probably will.

How many times have he visited the canvas already? three? This one, once against Darling Jimenez and once with the de Jesus guy...dude, he got dropped by tomato cans. He'll meet a Breidis Prescott along the way in his quest to pad his record by fighting no-namers and he'd get scorched... he's got khanish chin :439:

Gamboa is all flash and not much skill
he drops off my cant miss prospects list

He fights like he has headgear and 4 2:00 rounds to get the max amount of points in.
Gamboa won...but got dropped again just like the last time he fought. The power's definitely there and the skills as well, but getting floored twice by boxers who doesn't even have half your skills raises a few questions about chin. :439:
rey doesn't have a bad chin.
he just gets hits a lot on his chin.
his trainers need to work on better defense and head movement.
what gym is he out of again?
What gym?:439:
