Comments Thread For: John vs Gamboa Has To Take Place Within 120 Days

[jrosales13]

He's only fought for 12 years, and sparingly over the last few. He's definitely approaching the end of his career, but he is clearly not finished.

What are you saying? Because Erik Morales started slipping at a certain age, John will too? Yeah buddy, that's very logical. When you compare their two styles, that comparison becomes asinine.

If you're hating on John because he has been protected his entire career, then say that, don't come up with lies.

WTF are you talking about?

The point with the Morales comparison is that you just don't look at age.

What lies am I coming up with? You haven't noticed that he has slipped? Then you haven't really seen John.

This is a damn good fight, if Gamboa were to actually win then yes he really won two world title under 20 fights legitimately unlike now but I would favor the skilled and crafty John over him.

I agree. I'm still not convinced that Gamboa will beat John.

FINALLY gamboa will step up and actually fight someone, no offense to solis but that was a fight that gamboa was supposed to win and was awarded a gift in the sense that he should have been disqualified. That been said I don't think he can beat a 100% john.

john fights only 2 a year,thats not enough,his last fight was over a year ago,he's always hurt and he's getting older..i think gamboa would be facing him at the perfect time,plus he's not a big puncher,that wasn't a good performance by gamboa on saturday,it was ok,but not impressive

pretty good match up, but what i don't like about gamboa, is he holds too much. just like the hbo team was saying, it's too much of that amateur style. against salido, cortez should've been on him more for initiation all those clinches.

i felt like i was watching roy jones and john ruiz love child in there this last weekend. crazy talent coupled with crazy amount of clinching....... it would be more exciting to see gamboa do a bump and hit, like mayweather does so well, instead of clinching.

chris john is 1 of the weakest champs out there hes always hurt hes rusty no power gamboa by ko but i thought lopez was gonna fight john after rafa so i guess every 1 can shut up cuz lopez v.s cab will happen then after that the big battle of lopez v.s gamboa this june

Since Gamboa might fight Chris John then what is Juanmaricon going to do after he beats Marquez? He should fight Caballero or at least Elio Rojas next.

I take into account the level of opposition.

Hasegawa was a world beater until running into Montiel. Lack of competition may make a fighter seem better than he is. You already know that though.

And, Hadeagawa had wins over top fighters. Anyways you don't like the lower divisions that you wouldn't understand.

Anyways, is not like Juarez is a World beater by any means. Just cuz he is easy to follow and Golden Boy keeps putting him on in our TV screen and is harder to follow Hasegawa doesn't mean anything.

Anyways. if you have not seen that John has lost a step and is injury prone now and very inactive then I don't know what to tell you.
