Super Gamboa Produces A Sudden Flash Of Greatness
B]On this Friday night there was a meteoric flash culminating with an explosive detonation of power that had all who viewed it gasping in awe.This event lasted only 94 seconds but,it will be locked in many memory banks for a very long time.
Yuriorkis Gamboa is not a meteor or comet,or a flash in the pan.The 26 year old Cuban expatriate,now residing in Miami,may well be one of the most dynamic lighter weight prizefighters since the days of Willie Pep and Sandy Saddler.
Held in a unique venue it did not disappoint. But thats unless you happened to sneeze,blink,or bend down to pick something of the floor.
Thats how devastating and sudden Gamboas assult was in a 10 round co-feature against Johnnie Edwards who came in with a 13-1 record
Before the echo of the opening bell had died down,Gamboa had already unleashed a blistering two-fisted attack,driving back by the ferocity of Gamboas firepower,Edwards was toppled by a vicious left hook followed by a glancing for good measure right,getting up he decided to fight fire with fire,whether it was a wise or unwise decision,was probably irrelevant as the tremendous right that Gamboa drove home to send Edwards sprawling was not going to be denied,Gamboa,now 9-0(8) made believers of all those present as he captured the NABF super-feather championship[/B]
Boxingnews seems to know talent when they see it,its a UK magazine,but even last week they said Gamboa is the best well-rounded prospect in boxing,even better then Amir Khan
