Comments Thread For: Gamboa vs Caballero, Juanma-Concepcion June Double?

[JmH Reborn]

I am quickly becoming less enthused with Juanma and Arum. I typically like how Arum grooms his fighters, there is nobody in the business who can make a superstar quite like him, however in this instance he really is not doing JuanMa any favors. It seems he is building up the wrong star, Gamboa is getting the chance to elevate his game. The fact that Caba is fighting Gamboa before JuanMa is an outcry. That fight in itself should be the main attraction instead of Concepcion/JuanMa. I believe JuanMa needs to speak up because Gamboa cannot keep going and upstaging JuanMa on the same night, the public at large will start to question, not just hardcore fight fans.

Wow, after all the **** Cab talked about Juanma, and Gamboa ends up gettin the fight. Top Rank is gonna make Lopez the new Andre Berto...a great talent who has to be protected because they manouvered him into a belt too fast. Sucks, cus Cab - Lopez was the fight everyone wanted to see.

So true

greatly dissappointed a Juanma. How is Gamboa fighting Caba instead of him?

scorecards wont be needed, juanma will win by brutal ko.

JuanMa is the big man yet the likes of Copncepcion is hard to underestimate because he have the ability to adapt his opponent fighting style. JuanMa has the edge but not much of ensuring predictions to large margin victory, but rather his defeat will be just in the corner once he made mistake no matter how small that mistake might be but enough to reverse the momentum of the fight if it's happen!

Gamboa fought at 118 as an amateur and build some muscle as a pro to fight a bit higher. Naturally hes not bigger than Caballero, Caballero is the bigger man! This is a verry good fight and it will show how good Gamboa really is, the first elite opponent for Gamboa. I agree that both Gamboa and Caballero would beat Juanma.

At this stage, JuanMa would beat Gamboa but against Caba, I'm not so sure. Gamboa on the other hand have tools to upset Caba.

great double header, though it makes lopez look bad, considering everything caballero has said about him, you would think gamboa would be fighting concepcion and lopez would be going with caballero. still it would be a huge set up for a gamboa/lopez fight assuming they can both get passed those guys.

yeah, its kind of mind boggling.

yeah, its kind of mind boggling.

Juanma is a great kid with good talent but this made it clear that they avoided him. EVEN if Conception is better than Caba and even if concepcion could ko caba or box circles around him; this will be viewed as Juanma ducking Caba. There is no other way around it. AND if he fights him after Gamboa it will be even worse

What Arum is doing here is making Gamboa and Caballero fight so that the loser is eliminated as an opponent for Juanmaricon.
