Couldn't help but laugh at the "that ship has sailed" comment, but I still wouldn't mind watching JuanMa and Yuri fight. The mystique is utterly gone -- *poof* -- but it might still be an entertaining fight. And it would put to bed, once and for all, any arguments as to who wins that match-up.

Maybe I missed something but what I remembered was Juanma and Gamboa always wanted the fight. It was Bob Arum that kept delaying the fight. Juanma had tons of excuses for a Celestino fight though but like I said, I could be wrong and may have missed something.
I still wont mind seeing these 2 go at it.Comment

maybe gamboa forgot that juanma brings in the money not him and after his performance of getting rocked by a unknown i think gamboa wants to fight a soft touch not a puncher the ship never sails when your the b side lopez brings the most money so the fight will happen soonComment

I think Yuri can deminate Juanma, but at the same time he feels one punch can end his night. I mean that Farina dude or whatever, had him on the canvas hard and hurt him a coupl of times, Juanma lands a solid right hook and Gamboa is out of there.
At this point I favor yuri by UD like 115-112. He visits the canvas atleast once.Comment

The way I remember it, JuanMa always said, "Boxing is a business. I fight who my promoter wants me to fight." That's fine, I never really had a problem with that. But now that things have changed, Lopez is actually looking to fight Gamboa. It's okay to call him out now, JuanMa? No, mijo....Maybe I missed something but what I remembered was Juanma and Gamboa always wanted the fight. It was Bob Arum that kept delaying the fight.

I know you guys are from PR and support your guys, but do you honestly think Juanma can take punches from Gamboa? He's been hurt by a small Marquez, all over the place against M'tagwa, dropped by Concepcion, stopped twice by Salido...
He is going to get hit hard and hit often. I think he'd be lucky to see the 4th round.Comment

JuanMa got stopped by Salido twice, but you favor Yuri by decision? Styles make fights, but Gamboa fought "Siri" in a dogfight. He came out on top, fairly easily.nothing but the truth right here!

Now, I agree that Lopez can end Yuri's night with one good shot, but Gamboa can do the same to him. Yuri took a few good shots from Farenas on Saturday. That Filipino hits hard; maybe not as hard as JuanMa, but hard enough. Gamboa showed a decent chin, as far as I'm concerned.
If these two were ever to fight, I agree that there's a chance it goes to the cards. But I'm beginning to think the chances are better that Yuri stops JuanMa in one of those machine gun flurries of his.Comment

Like Rodgers Mtagwa?maybe gamboa forgot that juanma brings in the money not him and after his performance of getting rocked by a unknown i think gamboa wants to fight a soft touch not a puncher the ship never sails when your the b side lopez brings the most money so the fight will happen soonComment
