        Donaire would destroy those two.

          Looks like it'll have to happen at 130. Yuri has already said he's moving up. I don't see him coming back down for anyone other than Donaire.

            It would be a very interesting fight. Mikey would have to fight a very smart fight and not make any mistakes.

            I think his style is a tough one for Gamboa because of his defense and patience. Of course Gamboa is the much better athlete in this fight.

            We also haven't really seen Gamboa's chin tested, that would play another part in all of this.

              His chin has been tested, he's been dropped like 3 times already.

              I'd favor him against Garcia but patient methodical boxer-punchers are the antidote to unorthodox athletic fighters. Especially when they are one punch-punchers.

                Gamboa has been down four times. All his KDs are attributable to being out of balance. Yuri has never been hurt by a punch.

                I regard Gamboa as a swarmer. He pot-shots from time to time, but he normally closes the distance delivering combinations with blazing hand-speed.

                  Come on now. You can say it's a combination of balance and being hurt but to blame it all on bad balance is just naive.

                  Gamboa a swarmer? I don't think so. He fights mostly from the outside and jumpis in & out with combos, he's not a swarmer, more like an in & out athletic fighter.

                    Show a vid of any of the kds where Gamboa is hurt.Mikey still aint ready for Gamboa why not try and fight someone like De Leon and see how he gets on

                      Garcia-Salido should happen first so we can gauge where Mikey's at.
