Gamboa and Juanma should get their jobs done pretty easy.

Should be an ok fight but I don't think Solis has it in him to take down Gamboa.

I don't think Solis will be able to beat Gamboa. Bob Arum is trying to protect one of his HBO fighters the same way he is protecting Juanma and he wouldn't put them in their with anyone who has a significant chance. In boxing, anything can happen but I think this is a safe bet for ol' Bob.

One thing I wish is that HBO would refuse to show anymore Gamboa and Juanma fights unless it's with each other next. The time is now for these guys to fight. Hey, HBO forced Sergio Martinez to fight a guy he didn't want to fight if he wanted to fight on HBO, so they should do the same with these guys. It's nothing against Gamboa and Juanma, it's f'ing Bob who needs to get with it. One loss for either of these guys against each other won't end their career or popularity, but one loss against someone else for these two could be devastating. The time is now...

Watching Jorge Solis is hard because you never know which Solis is going to show up in the fight. While Gamboa is still fresh and hungry so you know who to expect showing up in the fight. I'll be cheering for the both of them. This fight will be a defining moment for Gamboa. Gamboa for the win.
