I think Mtagwa is get WAY too much credit..

I've seen maybe 3 or 4 of his fights, and I just don't see why there is so much praise for Mtagwa. Who has he beaten? Usually guys with this kind of record have also had some pretty good upsets on their records, too. Just because JuanMa underestimated him and got rocked, he's now getting all of this credit to be the guy who will beat Gamboa? Please.. Gamboa has a shaky defense at times, but it will take a special fighter to beat him. Mtagwa isn't that guy. Y'all can bump this after the fight. Come on, now. Let's get real here.

We only have to wait 2 hours to find out don't we? :boxing: Yessirrrrrrrrr.... Less than that, actually.

Your right, he has a world of determination, but other than that he is just average. Juanma fought foolishly and got caught up in a war.

Besides the Villa fight what Mtagwa brawls would you recommend? Any fight of his outside of Billy Dib. More recently fights vs Valtierra, Trejo, Simonyan.

He's an exciting clubfighter who has been in some of the best and most overlooked brawls in the past century. Besides the Villa fight what Mtagwa brawls would you recommend?

it's all good though after Gamboa takes out Mtagwa we won't have to hear about him anymore He's moving up in weight. He's had a long career. He's never fought somebody on Gamboa's level at any previous point in his career. If it wasn't for round 12 of Lopez-Mtagwa, there wouldn't even be a Gamboa fight for this guy.

He's an extremely tough dude who comes to win every time. I don't think he has a fair shot at an upset because I think he's some brilliant underrated fighter, I just think he has some key components to make this a very demanding fight for the untested, green, sometimes reckless and possibly weak chinned Gamboa. I must admit I overlooked the fact that Mtagwa was moving up in weight up until seeing someone mention it a few minutes ago though.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^this waiting for TS to reply... :moon: He was losing in most of the exchanges. He gets credit for landing a good punch. But it's not enough evidence to say that he'll beat Gamboa.

put he "almost" beat juanma, doesnt that count? No. People tend to forget that Lopez was outworking him when he really got into it. He lapsed and got caught with a good punch near the end though. It was a good fight that could have been much easier for Lopez. I'm sure he "almost beat those other 12 guys, too.

Like i said in the other thread,I agree with you 100 percent!Not to mention Mtagwa is coming up in weight for this fight.
