It's too early for Gamboa, John is too well rounded for him right now.

It is possible, John is a pretty good boxer but Gamboa might be to much for him, would be interesting fight though.

Of the 126 pound title holders John would probably be the last guy I would go after if I was Gamboa's team, Cruz and Larios are ripe to be beaten by Gamboa.

Luevano would be a pretty tough challenge also but Gamboa has some impressive physical tools, would be an interesting fight also.

Gamboa beats any Featherweight in the world except John. We don't give john enough credit hes an amazing pure boxer.

i think he can

Gamboa is truly a wild card at this point, a chaos factor. He could possibly win by KO in a bum rush performance, but he could just as easily lose a wide UD. When he starts fighting for titles, these questions should begin to be answered.

if gamboa keep fighting w/o any defense, he's gonna get ko by the top contenders

I can see his style and speed giving John fits. he leaves himself too wide open, John might catch him.

Gamboa imo is capable to beat anybody, but also is still very vulnerable. His amazing talent, power and agility are elite level, so to asnwer the question.
Yes, he can.
