Not really. Salido was a tough guy opponent for Gamboa but Gamboa clearly won, wasn't close.
I want Gamboa to move forward, not backwards. After Ponce if he can't fight Chris John move up in weight and knock out Boner real quick then take care of the top guys in that division. -
yea dog.... salido right now reminds of how marciano eventually got down and mastered his looping right hand with timing and traps ..... In the gamboa fight it looks like he used that punch in a desperation attack...but in the lopez fight his whole game plan seemed revolved around punch.... like in the beginning of the fight and early rounds he went to the body hard and dipped his head in the same fashion he does when throwing the looping right hand ... that movement got embedded in lopez brain and so he associated that with getting hit to the body .... so later on salido began to experimenting with the timing and angles of the punch kinda in the same way martinez did with paul williams in the second round .... then he made a very important discovery that sealed the fate of lopez... he realized that when he dips his head lopez punches land on the forehead or top of the skull and he cannot be hurt .... the only punch that could juan ma didnt throw the uppercut... and another important aspect of the sequence of dipping your head is that the opponent's eyes most likely are gonna be locked on the head.. so if you happen to dip their concentrating on hitting target ... so since he realized he cant be hurt by juan ma ... he would throw at the same time juan ma was but the difference was juan ma's punches landed on the top of salido's dome but orlando's overhand comes from a blind spot in a way because of the positioning of his head and the way he throws that beautiful overhand.... it comes from his thigh almost and he hides it very well.... but since he went to the body earlier that movement of dipping his head is associated with body punching .... that's why that overhand is so deadly... its not some brawler just slugging with bad technique... its a masterful strike perfected and used perfectly with tactics and strategies... **** straight out of the art of war and the book of five rings... and if you watch the fight again you see juan ma has no idea what keeps hitting him until its too late ... salido vs gamboa 2 would be interesting if salido can come up with the proper strategy cuz gamboa is vunerable but too much speed and intensity kept salido off balance and uncomfortable .... but if they fight again and attacks the body with the same commitment and intensity he did to juan ma.... that right hand can win it for him if it lands flush... salido has a lot of subtleties that are beautiful to watch as a boxerComment

Salido earned it and I think it would be a repeat of what already happened but Salido earned the right to that fight if he wants it. But we speak too soon, we have to see what happens with Salido/Juanma. I think Salido is taking one more fight before giving a rematch to Juanma.Comment

In the end of the fight Salido look like he was going to get KOed. He said that he didn't train properly so who knows. If he beats another top ten contender in his weight class then I would say yesComment
