What do you guys think about this fight? I used to think Gamboa would beat Juanma easily, but after last night I'm not so sure. Gamboa's chin is not that great and if Juanma catches him like Farenas did last night, I think he has a chance. This fight should still be made at 130. I still think Gamboa wins tho, but what do you guys think?
Gamboa needs to move up again, rehydrating 18lbs isn't a good sign. I think Juanma/Gamboa could come down to who's better conditioned. I still wanna see the fight, and it would make sense for that fight to be made next.
i think gamboa would beat juanma....gamboa didn't look spectacular against a guy who many expected he would look spectacular against and that is probably due to ring rust. gamboa still is fast, sharp, strong, good movement..only main thing to criticize about him would be his defense.
yea but juanma is a much better fighter than farenas and you saw what happened last night, farenas was tagging gamboa the whole fight, even knocked him down and hurt him. So Juanma should be able to land a couple punches on him too :sad:
Yeah and Gamboa hadn't fought in 15 months. Once Gamboa gets his groove back, he stomps JuanMa out easily.

It's not the chin it's Gamboa dropping to much weight his ring fight time was 148 Gamboa either has to fight at 135 or 140
They are both ok fighters. If Juanma catches Gamboa it's lights out. Gamboa just isn't that good. When was the last time ( or ever) that Gamboa fought a descent fighter? Juanma is the same way but at least his opponents had a pulse.
Salido, Ponce, Solis; those were his last 3.
Salido, the same guy that KO'd Juanma...
Juanma's best chance is to wait for Gamboa to make his move and throw that counter right hook that made him the ko artist he is.
About Juanma being a better fighter than Farenas. Obviously, but Juanma hasnt had a fight at 130 it is still a wonder if his power can carry.

Thats why this is still an exciting fight if it happens. Both of them can be knocked out.

Gamboa had over a year off, of course there was some rust.
Farenas has good speed, Juanma doesn't. Farenas has a very good chin yet was still down twice and hurt several times, Juanma has a poor chin....it's a mismatch. Salido battered Juanma.

Juanma has no speed, no defence and poor punch resistance.
As was the case before, Gamboa via KO.
