Man if both fighters keep winning this could be built into a big fight say 18 months from now. Gamboa needs to work on his defense but this would be an explosive fight no doubt.Comment

Gamboa said it himself in a recent interview. He said it's his style and he won't change it. Actually, he says he has no choice to fight this way, it's part of his strategy. He says most of his opponents (both real fights and sparring) are just kinda scared and just play survival "high defense" mode... So the only way for him to land clean punches is to make them believe he is open so they try to catch him (somtimes it works for them, as we all know) and since he is faster he takes that opportunity to kill them. This make sense, as we saw the only two fighters that went the whole distance with him were Jimenez and Gonzales, both of them pussied out since the beggining and the only thing they did the whole fight was cover their head and run away. Real champs won't do that, so I think it may actually be easier for Gamboa vs people who will try to fight back.
Now, Junma vs Gamboa? Tough pick, almost an impossible one IMO. This could go anywhere. Gamboa is just too quick and powerful so he could easily KO Juanma (this is not personal towards Juanma, Yuri is just too dangerous for anyone). But Juanma has simply a ******* as strong hand, and even if Gamboa doesn't have a bad chin (which we really don't know yet), Juanma's power is just dangerous to anyone. Gamboa is my first favorite fighter and Juanma my third, I dream about this matchup!Last edited by 537Bwouaye; 03-02-2009, 05:03 PM.Comment

At this point,Lopez and brutally.Gamboa is a great talent,much like Khan and has an awful lot of work to do on his defense.Lopez on the other hand is fulfilling his potential and I expect him to really kick on this year.He could be a truly special fighter.Comment
