Comments Thread For: Juanma-Gamboa Still Has Hope, Then Donaire-Gamboa

[Elotero]

True about Conception. Donaire would be bigger himself though if he moved up.
Not sure that he he cant do what Pacs done TBH. Remembering Pacquiao has fought his fair share of fighters on their way down. Donaire destroyed Montiel and Darchinyan and is now being lined up to fight another beast. If he keeps going the way he is he may even eclipse Pac in terms of fighting guys at their peak.

I hear what youre saying about risking his first fight at the weight against Gamboa who is top dog. No doubt its a risk but thats what makes great fighters. I'm not sure a win over a bum would get him any better prepared for Gamboa. All it would do would show Yuri how he does at 126. He doesnt need to settle into the weight because if he isnt big enough he would rather lose in a superfight than lose to a bum in a warm up.

To reference Pac again its like when he moved up to fight Oscar at welter. Massive difference between washed up Oscar and prime Gamboa I know but the comparisson Im making is if Pac had a warm up at welter, the cat would have been out the bag and Oscar may have thought twice about fighting him if he knew how well he could perform at wleter. Pac knew he could do what he did pre fight so was confident going in. Donaires not stupid so if he takes the fight its because he knows he can win and he doesnt wana let the secret out by showing the world he can fight at that weight. Best to do it in his first fight at feather IMO but time will tell.

For once, Puga has a great point. You're point however

Gamboa VS Lopez winner gets Donaire

It looks like that's what Arum is aiming for.

Gamboa VS Lopez winner gets Donaire

the way arum works wh would get gamboa/lopez winner vs donaire sometime in 2014..arum would want to "build up" the fight when in reality there would be no need for such thing,none....gamboa is already past that,he's known,donaire with 2 more fights and thats it,no need to wait 2 years for that to happen,but it probably will,heck i even think he won't make lopez/gamboa soon,he know that if an averaga boxer with really no ko power put lopez on his butt,gamoba would ko him easily and that would be the end of lopez

Juanma is still the best in the division and will ko any1 gamboa is all hype look at his record it doesnt compare to juanma he had 1 bad nite with a corrupt ref and personal issues donaire will beat gamboa and ponce might beat gamboa hes a good technician now that can take that 0 he beat broner easy and got cheated

ur a hater who smokes too much crack !!! gamboa would take lopez and tax that ass worse than salido did in P.R. !! ur a chump and you know nothing about boxing you only go for rican boxers and discredit other races you sir are a COWARD ***** !!!! if you dont like it

[brick wall]

yeah lopez-salido rematch then the winner fights gamboa.

as for donaire, let him fight for superbantam title first. it's been reported he's going to fight the winner of marquez-nishioka which is nice. if he wins convincingly that's the only time we can consider him fighting at featherweight.

Juanma will be better with this loss, I think he will be more dangerous to Gamboa, than before!!!

Yeah if he works on DEFENCE can i say...the guy needs to work on hes Defence so much its not even funny he keeps hes chin out begging u to hit him not once but in combinations...overall he is good but Defence is a must thank god he didnt face Yuri cuz that would b the end of Juanma's career...and i agree he should take this loss work on hes Defence train harder and come back..
