Give Donaire 1 year or 2 before moving up to 26lbs Featherweight Div.,
Let him unite the Banramweight Division first, before thinking of moving up weight.
gamboa would be a very tough fight for donaire no doubt. but i'm not sure he would destroy donaire. I guess we'd have to see how he performs at 126 before we make any predictions on how a fight between the two would turn out.
Donaire is the better fighter. They only question is at what weight would they fight. They should fight at a catchweight for it to be fair. Gamboa keeps his hands too low and Nonito has good reach and 1 hitta quitta KO power

Nonito is probably the more "complete" fighter. Or does it just seem that way because he fights in great textbook fashion? Gamboa has the greater physical gifts, IMO.
Yuri only keeps his hands low when he's out of reach. Donaire won't be tagging him from too far away; Gamboa's too fast. Nonito will be most dangerous when Yuri moves in to throw punches. Donaire is a deadly counter-puncher. Then again, he wouldn't want to get caught by Gamboa first.
Good fight if it ever happens. And, by the way...no catch-weights, please.
i actually think you could make a case for gamboa being the #3 P4P right now. not sure if nonito would look nearly as dominant as he has lately against this kind of speed and combination punching.
