    Farenas has good power. He can hurt anyone with a solid shot. Gamboa took more punches than I'd like to see from a slow guy, but he took them well.

        Gamboa is a talented fighter, but Broner is a level ahead. Styles make fights and Broner would walk Gamboa down and stop him late.

            I thought Broner would struggle before, now I think Broner could possibly KO Gamboa.

            Gamboa would need to fight completely different than what he did last night to have a shot I think.

              Im far from biased. Broner actually annoys me. Gamboa has speed and can punch but i wouldnt say he hits as hard as demarco. Would be a great fight and one id definately pay for.

                With Broner's wide stance, his foot speed and movement aren't good, no. He's a very good fighter, but his foot speed is a problem...you can't walk down someone that you cant catch.

                Don't think that Gamboa from last night would be the same Gamboa against Broner. He cruised through that fight, feeling like he could do what he wanted when he wanted. His hands were down, he was throwing leads from the hands down position...he doesn;t do that silly stuff when he is in with someone he considers a real threat.

                We'll see when the fight happens, I'm comfortable going with Gamboa.

But the Gamboa you saw last night isn't the same fighter you'd see against Broner. Quite frankly, even the "Ciclon" that showed up on the Pacquiao undercard didn't look too bad.
                  I'm sure if Gamboa remains active, he would come in a lot better against Broner if the fight happened a year from now. That said, I still seriously doubt Gamboa has what it takes to beat Broner.

                    Farenas hits as hard as broner?

                      Im baffled. After seeinng Gamboa last night, Id bet good money that Broner blitzes this cat. I didnt read all 100 some odd responses but so far Im shocked to see peeps making excuses for Gamboa getting beat on. Sure he's been knocked down and off balance before but never that consistently rocked.
