      He should have a tune up @ 135 first.

      Question is, will Rios still be at 135? Last I heard, Rios wanted to go to 140lbs
      Bam Bam has said he wants 1-2 more fights at 135 before he moves up to 140 and especially now that Gamboa is wanting to meet at 135 he said he will stay at 135 if that is indeed what happens

            No I meant Linares is a threat to Rios at 135. Dude said there's nobody at 135 that can give Rios problems besides Soto.

              ah gotcha and agreed but I would also count Vazquez as well guy is ugly and effective

              Soto is now at 140

                Rios is too ****in big for Gamboa. Gamboa's managers are dumb azz **** to want this fight. Arum don't care cause he wins either way.

                  Gamboa would spank him in a one sided fight and stop him late.

                    Skills pay the bills but with that said, Gamboa probably should take a tune-up at that weight class first. Rios is a risky fight if Gamboa takes it as his first even if Rios likes eating punches for breakfast.

                      Brandon

                      I have seen both side by side

                      Brandon is massive compared to Gamboa.

                      He will have issues figuring out Gamboa at first but my gut think he walks him down and puts an ugly beating on him while behind on the cards

                      truthfully I only think Vazquez and Linares pose any threat to Bam 135 and below right now
