The winner of Gamboa-Rios....

[THE REED]

Boxrec's current top ten:

1. Pacquiao
2. Mayweather
3. W. Klitschko
4. V. Klitschko
5. Hopkins
6. Martinez
7. JMM
8. Ward
9. Bute
10. Bradley

Even without Donaire on that list (I dunno what happened to Nonito, he doesn't appear on their P4P lists), I don't see Yuri replacing any of those guys. Who do you see Gamboa replacing?

Bradley would drop out if he loses..

Who, if anyone, should Gamboa replace if he beats Rios?

[Evil Abed]

Who, if anyone, should Gamboa replace if he beats Rios?

Bradley most likely will have fallen. So theirs him.


Pongsaklek Wonjongkam: could definitely replace or leapfrog him.

[thuggery]

They would both each need 1 more solid win imo.

Marquez is a good spot

[trainhard_187]

If Rios wins, Id like to see him fight Juan Manuel Marquez but that aint happening cause Brandons last name isnt Pacquiao..

If Gamboa wins he should prob take on big names at 130 possibly a Broner match up.. Depending on how Gamboa wins if he wins against Rios, Im not sure if he should stay at 135.. Might be to quick of a jump..

[bojangles1987]

If Gamboa beats that monster at lightweight and Rios doesn't look negatively effected by the weight, he's going in my top 10 without a second thought. That's a huge accomplishment if he pulls it off.

[bojangles1987]

Who, if anyone, should Gamboa replace if he beats Rios?

Vitali, Bradley, Wlad, or Pong. I don't care, take any of them out.

[Cubanborn87]

A win for Gamboa, especially if he looks good, kicks him up a few notches...probably top-15. A win for Rios is good, but doesn't really do all that much for him. Yuri has everything to gain from this fight; Brandon is risking a lot.

Gamboa is currently ranked 16 in espn p4p so you would have to think it bumps him more than top 15

[Walt Liquor]

Gamboa should be with out a doubt a top 10 P4P just for the simple fact he is moving up 2 weight to challenge the #1 lightweight champ @ NO catchweight. Rios NO but he is not winning anyway

plus its a known fact Gamboa skills is @ elite level

This right here.

If rios wins and beats jmm or guerrero at 140, he should get top 10 consideration.
