Yuriorkis Gamboa appreciation thread

[!! Shawn]

His face looks fine to me.

Sometime people don't know the definition of defense.

Gamboa slips almost every punch.

I agree with you 100%.

[Dick-Sucker]

Why don't you try closing your eyes and throwing a punch at a top amateur or pro for that matter? Why don't you put that luck to good use?

Ask De La Hoya.

Ask any other professional boxer if there is such a thing as a lucky punch.

Yes sir there is.

Saying there isn't shows your lack of boxing knowledge.

Making you a boxer doesn't make you smart......

[Dick-Sucker]

I agree with you 100%.

LOL? LMAO!

Who has he fought yet?

Wait until his career is over. I promise you his lack of defense will get found out...

Because his lack of defense didn't show up during 400 fights scored only on how many punches your opponent connects, right?

i know the meaning of defense.

But against the top guys, do you think thats gonna help him when hes backed into a corner?

Seriously, your expecting to much from him. Let him proove it.

I doubt he can do it. I don't think he will make top 10 P4P.

You don't get it don't you?

For 9 wins he has a good resume and look who he is fighting next. By the time hes 20-0 he will be a champ.

Doubting a fighter with greater skills than you? Lol. HATE.

Everyone has to prove it, but this guy has potential and if you can't see that then you need to get your brain fixed. This guy will murder Edwin Valero.

Of course the guy has potential.

But he needs to improve his defence.

Im not convinced he will be P4P number 1 ever. And im willing to gamble on that.

You have absolutely no concept of defense, do you? Defense is not getting hit. HE DOESN'T GET HIT.

What don't you understand about that?

Maybe he should watch some Anthony Mundine fights so he can pick up some proper defensive technique. Oh wait, Mundine got knocked out by Sven Ottke...

Gamboa has wicked reflexes, he can time his opponents punch and effectively evade it, no doubt he has got more than just talent. Even guys with records similar to his (85% + of wins by knock out) don't fight or move quite like him. But he should definitely keep his hands up a bit more, he might just get in the ring with someone that could make him unlucky.

Best of luck to him though the guy has a future no matter his age.
