Hes too small, doesnt matter how skilled he is
Nobody wants to watch boxers who weigh as much as girls go at it
As harsh as it sounds it would be like watching the special olympics
I think Estrada II would be his best bet at capturing a wider casual audience.
He's already co-mained on several highly viewed HBO broadcasts so I don't get why people seem to think he's particularly unpopular.
Since Naz I don't think a lot of people pay much attention to the smaller weight class.
Didn't Barrera, Morales, JMM, Pacquiao, Israel Vasquez, and Rafael Marquez all draw big audiences AFTER Naz?
Who gives a damn about guys the size of middle schoolers? Nobody cares about those small weightclasses
It's a shame you think that way.
To me great boxing is great boxing. Period. No matter the weight, skin color, or nationality.
For about a year already Ward is getting a credit from his fans for the fight that didn't happen yet. Why the same logic can't be applied to Roman G? Clear double standards.
b*tch pretty much everything u r saying is stupid as f*ck.
first off only complete cum stains like you like catch weight fights.
second Gamboa is not going to be effective in the "low 140" and there is absolutely no comparing him to the beast Pacquiao that beat Cotto
also ok b*tch everyone knows that the lower weight classes don't get that much attention that doesn't make your stupid argument that no one cares about Chocolatito valid.
1.
Gambao has skills, go rewatch his fight with Crawford. Will he win against Cotto? NO. Does he have a small chance, YES its possible with his skillset.
Holy sh*t clown, dont you get it. I dont think he'll win.
2.
Chocolatito is an UNDERCARD fighter, hes the P4P number 1 and is a undercard fighter. Does the general fan care about Chocolatito, Hell No.
3.
"and how the f do you know that bigger upsets have happened in the last 30 years? being a tard you obviously wouldn't be able to predict odds very well."
SMH
Dude, just stop. Its embarrassing already.
Are you retarded? Holy sh*t youre dumb. You think Gambao coming in weighing in the low 140s beating Cotto would be a bigger upset than Douglas beating Tyson in 1990? 42-1 underdog. Hell no.
Pacquiao jumped from Lightweight to WW and beat a NEAR PRIME Cotto, you remember that too?
Again I said he had a shot, meaning a highly unlikely chance of winning but a possibility nonetheless.

Gamboa wouldn't survive the first flush left hook that Cotto lands on him.
There is prejudice in saying that lower weight fighters aren't recognized because they are and Chocolatito has been p4p #1 in many lists.
I could give a damn if there haven't been any cash cows at 115 in the past or if the casuals care about them. Right now Chocolatito is a p4p fighter whether an ignorant guy like you can see it or not.
Clearly youre not giving Gambao enough credit and that shows ignorance
They arent recoqnized, apart from a few exceptions over the years such as Hamed and Donaire (and even then, probably not even comparable to Hamed) smaller fighters dont get anywhere near the same attention as the higher weights
Im not saying Chocolatito sucks as a P4P fighter, but P4P will only take you so far when youre maxing out at 115lbs
WTF kinda of toilet cleaner are you on? do you think there is some kinda of magic weight machine that would allow Gamboa to put weight on the "right way" and be effective at welter. That is soo f-ing stupid! there is no way in hell that Gamboa would ever be good at that weight.

I said if Gamboa puts the weight on right at a solid 143-145lbs then he has a shot, he's a very skilled fighter who gave arguably the future P4P king hell in their fighter. Its not impossible, and thats exactly what he has; a small chance.
There have been bigger upsets in the last 30 years you narrow minded fool.
Nothing prejudice about saying lower weight fighters arent recoqnized, the truth is casual boxing fans generally DGAF. How many cash cows at 115lbs have there been in the last 50 years fool?

I'm not doubting that roman is great, but he hasnt done anything over the past 4 years except beat yagaseshi who is a 2nd tier fighter
And I would hope roman would win every fight over the past 4 years, they have been all complete mismatches..
And you should really learn to read and comprehend, I have said several times that the cuadras fight is a legit fight, the first one since roman beat Estrada
Step your game up stankamuffinSo you have Floyd Maywether pfp #1. Cool story bro.
Its like you didnt even read my post. Im upset because you're ignorant and superficial.
Then again you also think Gamboa has a shot at beating Cotto so i think being a moron would be a more accurate description.
Love it when ppl are so open about their prejudice. It just makes it easier to reply to them when they go on their racist rants in other threads.

Nobody is disqualifying Ward, Danny or Rigo, Foh. Worked up?:rofl: It's a judgement call. Ward, Rigo and Danny don't have anything to do with your argument. Many people have Gonzalez universally recognized as pfp the best in the world. HE'S WON EVERY ONE OF HIS FIGHTS IN THE LAST 4 YEARS. You saying that he isn't testing himself is your opinion. Now he's facing another undefeated fighter who is bigger than him. Again, he probably isn't testing himself right?

Floyd mayweather..
Or it's vacant and the kovolev/Ward winner is #1
Ward is de facto #1 IMO
And for the record I got roman ahead of ggg..So who do you have at #1?
I can answer, but it's futile when a guy has his mind made up. Kov nor GG have faced a guy as tough as Estrada. Neither GG or Kov has beaten a lineal champion. And how many weight classes has Chocolatito won titles in? You tried to pathetically criticize Viloria when 50 year old Hop is Kov's best win. GG's best win is Murray or Lemieux. Now you tell us who you have ranked pfp the best, and I'll **** all over your thoughts on that as well.
Who is pfp the best fighter in the world Adam?
