This is a very simple matchup. Very easy to analyze IMO.
And it all starts with Gamboa's discipline and composure.
He has the skills to outbox , and pick his spots against Juanma. If he can stay calm , he can take it. But at the same time. He does get more tired than Lopez. In the middle rounds he takes his foot off the gas. And the late rounds , he tries to come back strong , (and he does) but kind of tired and sluggish while at it.
Lopez can take bombs. And not be dropped. While gamboa is kd very easily I would say. Even tho hes not really rocked , and he still has his legs under him. The punches that have knocked him down , do not have half the mustard Juanma possesses.
Gamboa / Lopez
Speed - 10.................8.5
Power - 9..................10 His power has a lot to do with how much his speed decreases throughout the fight
Box skills - 10.................8
Conditioning - 8.5................8.5
Chin - 7..................8
Footwork 10..................9
Overall boxing abilities , Gamboa takes it. I think Lopez has more heart.
Gamboa has the kind of speed that catches you , off balance , without you seeing it. And can knock u out cold. Lopez has 1 punch ko power. But I thin it will take more than 1 to knock HURT Gamboa. He can possibly Knock him down. But he wont be badly hurt.
Its a toss up for me. Both guys are great. And this fight will happen.
