    Gamboa was impressive but what's next?

    So Gamboa has proven in this last little stretch that he can beat the B level fighters but what's next? The guy is in straight limbo because the only fight that people now want to see his his matchup with Lopez and most of us can agree that isn't the next fight that will be made for these two warriors. It's kind of like Pac and Mayweather where you have proven enough and the public only wants to see that matchup. So does he move up to 130? That division is pretty poor to say the least so I doubt it is favorable choice. Continue beating the other guys at 126? I guess this is the obvious despite it not being too favorable in the eyes of the fans. Do we plan a murder or Bob Arum? Perhaps, then we can weed out the bull****. What do you think should happen?

    I think JuanMa-Gamboa gets made within a year.

        I certainly hope you're right but I can't trust boxing. I expect the worst when we are dealing with big fights in the sport.

        I suppose but don't get upset when I say my excitement level doesn't increase an ounce. Garcia is a fighter that doesn't even want to be a fighter and Ponce is Ponce. Yeah, Ponce is somewhat exciting but it's a foregone conclusion that he will lose. When you get kayoed in one round by the fighter we want to see you face there is nothing you can do to be more impressive.

            Well Ponce had been on a very impressive winning streak.

            I think he should have got the nod against Broner.

            And Broner was a natural 130-135 fighter who very fast.

            If you wanted to prepare yourself to fight Gamboa, Broner is the guy you would want to fight.

            Ponce has game changing power.

            I wouldn't mind seeing them fight. Or Ponce-Garcia fight.

                Mikey should fight Ponce Deleon next.

                That's a proper step up.

                Face a guy with real power than he can fight Gamboa.

                  They are the Pac-Floyd of 126

                  Nobody in their class or below will beat them and the only way to find chalanges is to go up......or fight eachother
