burgos at lightweight? too small

WTF??? Burgos is a 5'10 skeleton at 130, moving up to 135 will actually be healthier for him.

WTF??? Burgos is a 5'10 skeleton at 130, moving up to 135 will actually be healthier for him.

what do you mean wtf?? he's not 5'10,atleast when he has fought he's always listed at 5'7 or 5'8...besides height not always determines at what weight you should be fighting at,look at caballero,he's almost 6 feet tall doesn't mean he should be a jr welter like khan who's just as tall,you look at the body frame of the fighter and burgos has a small frame compared to gamboa,burgos should stay at 130 and fight winner of Martinez/magdaleno....that image you have there doesn't mean he's that height you mention,those putting the height have been wrong before,i remember lopez was always put at 5'7 and marquez at 5'5 and when they fougth marquez was the taller guy..i bet rocky is about 5'5

Just another tune up fight until his eventual KO/TKO loss. Trust me guys, it's coming.

Been hearing the same story since he turned pro and we're all still waiting for it. When is it gonna happen? Once he's 37 and his reflexes are gone? Possibly. Just cause Gamboa makes it look easy it doesn't make it a tune up either.

Burgos too small at 135? Do people even know who Burgos is or just coming up with excuses already? 5'9" fighting a 5'5" guy at 135...

GambROIDoa is a Cheating Fraud

[ihatebobarum]

gamboa is what boxing needs, and in regards to the cheating claims its only speculations atm, and if we are going to speculate we might as well mention 80% of all the boxers fighting now or in the past.

Man, it's become incredibly frustrating to be a fan of Gamboa. At last a fight. I hope they pick up the pace a little. It's killing me.

Gamboa is gonna beat Burgos asss glass chin or not Gamboa always get up and finish the job.

So I guess Ricky Burns is 5'5 too right?
