    at this point Gamboa unless Russell dominates early he gets into ruts where he can be outworked

      Hope they make it happen at 126 or 130 in about two years.

        Very close. I'd have to say Russell is ever-so-slightly faster than Gamboa. However, Yuri hits significantly harder. If Gamboa didn't throw so many of his punches with bad intentions, it might be a different story.

          Russell has a slight speed advantage

          Gamboa hits harder

          Russell I think has better defense.

          Gamboa has more experience.

          Not sure about either's chins. maybe slight edge to Gamboa because he's fought stronger guys.

          Great fight.

              Gamboa hurts the 23 year old Russell right now. At some point down the line -- maybe 18 months, maybe later -- Gary should be a major force among featherweights, along with Mikey Garcia. 126 is a hot division....

                  Not best conversation.

                  Who's faster?

                  VS.

                  I gotta go with Gary Russel at :30 seconds of his video.

                  Kudos to anyone who can count how many punches he threw, cause I sure as heck can't!

                    Russel is faster, although he doesnt put as much on his punches as Gamboa.
