    Think talent and skill wise Rigondeaux >> Gamboa
    yeah, he's really half-arsed trying to force a fight with a tough guy a good two weight classes above him. might as well hang up the gloves with that lack of enthusiasm.

      Gamboa and it's not even close, only Gamboa has power in both hands while Rigo is a one hand threat.

        Give an example

          Sounds to me he wants a big payday before retiring

            Riigo with out dudes.

            Rigo is the best amateur of all time and win 5 or 6 times against Gamboa. The defence of Gamboa is bad, Rigo defence is very good. Rigo is smart Gamboa no, Rigo know counterpunch Gamboa no, then this 2 has speed, power good footwork etc

                Rigo has better defense but Gamboa has the ability to attack with both hands. Gamboa has developed more since he was an amateur and has faced the tougher competition between the two. The Gamboa that Rigs remembers fighting in the ams won't be the same guy he'd be facing today. It would be a close fight, I think Gamboa beats him.

                  This is true. Plus, the professional style and the amateur style are two different things. Gamboa has adjusted well to the pros. Rigo is still learning the ropes. I think we've yet to see the best from both.
