i can't lie...i watched that card for the specific purpose of gamboa...that was actually the first time i've seen juanma fight...i promptly updated my knowledge of him afterward...but gamboa was the star attraction on that card for me...
Actually, there has been a lot of hype for Gamboa for a while now...
When I used to post regular, people were raving over him. I went off and watched some of his early fights on Youtube and was impressed. The first time I watched him live was the Jiminez fight, he didn't look as impressive in that fight and lost a few band wagoners... But it's not like everyone thought he was shit before Mtagwa...
Now you know how Floyd fans feel when we hear that Pac beating in Hatton two means more because Floyd beat him in 10.
I was VERY CRITICAL of Gamboa a while back. I made a thread DEMANDING that he step up his comp because once hes 27 and once those reflexes go he wont be the smae fighter.
He looks to be stepping it up. So Im happy.
Hes fighting March 27th in Germany. The hes fighting C.C. in June.
I think Gamboa will have his hands full with JuanMA but I do think JuanMA is too hittable for Gamboa... I think Gamboa wins that fight.
See that is real boxing talk right there! Gamboa has what it takes to beat Juanma for sure but it seems most people (Not you guys) started thinking that because he whoop Mtagwa. I still don't know who would win and I would like to see more of them against top guys in the division to see how they do.
Is an even fight right now IMO.
People like exciting fighters and that's what Gamboa is, so expect alot of people to speak highly of him. I think Lopez will beat Gamboa. He wouldn't be able to get in the ring and use his quickness at will against Lopez. He'll have to be intelligent and smart. But I think Lopez is going to drop him.
We can have fun but not dumb fun! saying Gamboa schools Lopez is insane! Lopez has faced tougher opposition and just because he strugle against Mtagwa (Lopez was weight drained) and Gamboa took him out in two rounds doesn't mean anything! Just keep that in mind.

Ive made about 10 Gamboa threads dating back to 2008 and he turned pro halfway through 07.
I can vouch that Reed was one of the first Gamboa fans i saw on here.
ohhhh please don't act stupid you silly sally, where the **** were the Gamboa threads before last saturday? I think you can count them in one hand. Hype is getting out of control and all he did was beat a club fighter that was made for him.

I've been watching gamboa since his fights in germany so I'm no bandwagon fan. I think he should be praised for his skills and people should be exciting.
But I don't really like the min-roy talk. Two different fighters/people completely.
You and me both... He wont ever hit the resume of Roy... but I find similarities... mostly it's the confidence.
Gamboa has ONE fight? News to me.

nah......
lopez will own.
gamboa is overrated.
Time will tell. They both have fights lined up.
Gamboa-March 27th in Germny vs. TBA
Gamboa vs. C.C. in June.
Lopez vs. Cocepicon/Santiago in June.
Lopez vs. Marquez-Vazquez winner in September.
lopez will ktfo gamboa.
arum just wants the fight to simmer a bit before making it happen.
Lopez is too slow and too easy to hit. Luevano and tagwa landed at will.
Gamboa beats him petty easy. KO 7.
