Gamboa did not impress me last night

Its fkn monday , can you soft b1tches digest my opinion today. Can you handle my opinions. Will you bash me for it , only to call me a racist a bit later when I try to explain it. Pepto Bismol with your a$$. Bunch of soft b1tches.

I think Gamboa is a special talent. Reminds of Roy Jones with some of the things he does in that ring.

Since the first time i saw him fight I can appreciate the quality of fighter Gamboa is and the potential to be great that he has. I saw the interview and I really like this guy a lot. I don't think he is full of himself like I claimed. I think he is just very confident. And he should be , he has great talent and is a great fighter. But to me that wasn't an impressive win. Why?? Because I think I kind of expected that from this fight , and he didn't show me anything new , except patience. In other words , I knew he was capable of that. It was a dominant win. A good win , over an experienced guy. But a guy who never stood a chance. A guy who is levels beneath him. So I don't want to discredit the win. But I don't want to exaggerate it either. Like some ppl on here are doing. Bob Arum took the meat out. It was already defrosted. And it is now being seasoned for a great , great meal. And he knows exactly what he is doing. And we know exactly what he is doing. And truly , both guys benefit from it. We are just crazy to see that fight. I really don't know who to pick. Ill be rooting for my Boricua no doubt. But they are both in for a hell of a fight that will not go to the scorecards. Its a 50/50 fight. on the performance itself, good win for Gamboa over a fading Solis coming back to a weight class he had left some time ago. On Gamboa overall, amazing physical abilities, very fast hands but my impression of him is still a weak chin, inconsistent performances and a guy who does amazing things in a very unorthodox manner. some of the punches he knocked Solis down were thrown from very strange angles amazingly quick. That said I think if Juan Manuel fights a smart fight he probably KO's Gamboa. Lopez seems to be the real deal with only a few flaws, brawling when he doesn't need to.

In a way I agree with the OP and I'm a huge Gamboa fan, don't know why people are freaking out about his opinion. Gamboa went in there and did what he was suppose to do, I even predicted around the same round it happened before the fight. It was also evident Solis was just there for a paycheck, and as soon as he felt Gamboa's power and speed he pretty much knew it was over. Good win for Gamboa but I really wanna see him in there with the Lopez and Chris John's of the world, he's ready for that no more journeymen. Careful bro, you might be labeled as Rican, wouldn't want that....

haha that f*ggot ass rican got called out on his biased ass rican views fukking homo :lol1: Apparently, our biggest fault is having been born Puertorican. This site ****ing disgusts me sometimes. ****ing racists and bigots and nothing is done about it.

Existen registros históricos que lo muestran, no discutas. SHUT THE FK UP ridiculous a$$ b1tch. Son mas rollo que pelicula. I love the irony of that phrase.

quisieras tu papa , quisieras tu. Tu sabes muy bn por que es. Boca. Boca boca. Entre ustedes mismos Existen registros históricos que lo muestran, no discutas.

Gamboa has extremely special skills...speed and agility/reflexes. A JuanMa/Gamboa fight would be awesome...greedy Arum won't let it happen though but I have to say...Gamboa ended the fight much quicker than I thought he would based on his recent performances. This shows me that he is capable of putting the other guy down pretty much whenever he decides to turn it on which will ultimately lead to him getting tagged more as he is wreckless when in that mode. I feel his skills will win out 99% of the time though. Its a damn shame that the current regime in Cuba prevents these Cuban fighters from truly reaching their potential. Gamboa is reaching that dangerous age where it could all go south pretty quickly. At this point, he should be fighting the top tier guys, instead he's making his way up top.

eso nació cuando se lo dijeron al primer boricua que visitó cuba. quisieras tu papa , quisieras tu. Tu sabes muy bn por que es. Boca. Boca boca. Entre ustedes mismos

The only thing that didn't impress me was his dirty rabbit punching and the final knockdown where he manage to land 2 shots at the back of the head and 1 shot on his back and another on his back while he was down. Got a little bit too dirrrty and should have been deducted a point and could have been close to DQ'd at the end. But this dude can really fight and his flashy skills and physical gifts are very impressive on the eye!! The dirty fightining wouldn't have made a difference..he was too ruthless!!!!!!!!!

No , por que la escucho mucho entre ellos mismo :rofl: Que bueno que sabes lo que es . Pero la pregunta es , como nace algo asi? Eso nació cuando se lo dijeron al primer boricua que visitó Cuba.

This thread still going? I thought this would've died awhile ago.

a guy as skilled, talented, and experienced as gamboa, it's hard to impress when everyone is at a WAY LOWER skill and game level than you/him. it's not until we see him fight the top names and what he does and how he handles it. gamboas experience level is unlike anyone else in boxing, very few have as much experience as him, and although, it's amateur experience, he's seen enough and has skill enough to apply his knowledge from experience in the professional ranks. it's going to take someone who is in his league to make him really shine, because as of right now he's not even being challenged, sad to say, and no disrespect to those who have fought him but the guy is a cut above the rest. he has flaws, every fighter does, but the only thing i see missing is the lack of top quality opposition. the more he looks human in the ring, the more likely fighters will take gamboa on... i like watching him, and am impressed by his speed and ability to do whatever he wants, when he wants, inside the ring, im not a fan of the roy jones type boxing, but then again, he has the goods to offset what looks like clowning around but it's really a groove finder for him, and the same with a lot of fighters that have similar antics. bottom line, gamboa just needs to fight the quality opposition to really showcase his talents, right now, these fights are just " trailers " into what he has in store for the future and for great fighters HE SHOULD be facing in the near future. his talent and his vulnerability make him a great match up with all the top names in and around where ever his size can take him..........

You weren't impressed because you expected it from him, ok. Nonetheless I want everyone's points betting on Juanma so make that happen folks.

This is the first fight i see from Gamboa, one thing i noticed is he is pretty fast and packs a punch. i think 2 of the 5 knock downs were mostly his sloppy punches to the back of the head, i Dont want to take anything away from him it was a great fight, but i am scared for lopez man his chin is questionable , my opinion Gamboa ko's lopez.

hahaha no need to insult me like that bro, I'm Mexican. :boxing: No way... Are you sure. According to Mak , cubanguy , and a few others , only ricans give this type of criticism.

You must be a rican. hahaha no need to insult me like that bro, I'm Mexican. :boxing:

Debe ser porque te la dicen mucho, tú eres más rollo que película. No , por que la escucho mucho entre ellos mismo :rofl: Que bueno que sabes lo que es . Pero la pregunta es , como nace algo asi?
