    He did fight an impressive round 10. But that's against Jiménez.

    I'm not trying to knock down on the kid. He's really a great prospect, if he makes the adjustments. Sadly, I think it's more about him believing he's the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. For God's sake... keep your hands up! You are not invincible!

      Yes, Judah hasn't had a terrible career, but he's talented enough to be in the top 3 P4P fighters in the world. Yet he lost to Baldomir.

      Baldomir.

      Zab has more boxing talent and athletic ability in his toenail than Baldomir will ever have.

      I'm only trying to point out that a much weaker man, Jiménez, with slightly above average boxing skills hit Gamboa flush too many times. Even knocked him down. He needs to make adjustments.

        He'll be carefully matched and remain undefeated for a very long time.

            He got hit with some big punches but came right back like a real fighter. Gamboa ain't playin. He's got the "You hit me once I ****in kill you" mentality. Gamboa is the truth....Zab gets hit hard once and his confidence is gone.

                He's good and has time to improve but I don't think his speed and chin are good enough to fight like Roy Jones jr.
