    M. Garcia vs Y. Gamboa. Who do you have?

    Both are highly skilled, and they are destined to meet in the square circle. Who wins? Is Mikey more technically sound than Gamboa? I don't think so to be honest, but Gamboas long lay off concerns me.

    I'm picking Gamboa in this. Who do you guys have?

      Mickey is more technically sound than Gamboa.. In the fights I've seen Gamboa in, his athleticism stood out more..

        Gamboa rips his face off but you can't expect the new flavour of the month to not win the poll by a landslide.

          Gamboa is faster than Mikey. He puts combinations together in a much more crisp fashion. He also has more expierence than Mikey.


          You don't think Yuriorkis has seen a fighter like Mikey?

          What does Mikey do better than Gamboa? Please enlighten me.

            Exactly. Gamboa is more skilled and he is the better boxer of the 2. I'm sure that Garcia fans will flood the polls

              I think Mikey would win but Gamboa is definitely the faster fighter. It'd be a good fight

                Garcia is an average technician with above average power. Basic, upright, pretty ordinary in fairness. Does most things well, nothing great.
                Gamboa's speed, movement, angles, combination punching will cause the robotic Garcia to crash.

                Deer in headlights. Hes never seen anything like Gamboa.
                I assure you Gamboa seen 20 of him in the AMs and another 5 in the pros.

                Gamboa wide U.D Garcia is bog standard.

                People have nothing to go on but ''Gamboa has a glass chin'' Personally I think Garcia has a rather questionable chin himself & he has got no head movement.
                Just a big kid picking on midgets, Gamboa's left overs.

                Anybody wants to bet when this fight gets signed, message me, I'll gladly take your points.

                  If this was Gamboa after his fight with Ponce, I'd pick him. But Gamboa has looked less than stellar lately. I think Mikey struggles here and there but times him effectively and UD's him.

                    Gamboa is to small for the weight. He moved up out of lazyness and inactivity, not necessity.

                    Gamboa is better, but Mikey is good enough, and know how to control range and stick the jab.

                    Gamboa will have massssive problems.
