How much credit does Gamboa get for whooping Mikey?

Luckily for Gamboa, Mikey is a slow starter so he can work his rust off.

I shouldn't say a slow starter... he's just patient. So he doesn't really push the action.

Never lied about a bet or refused to pay a bet under those pretenses. So please quit. Can you find find anywhere in my years of being here where I've reneged on a bet?? Im confident enough in Mikey to put account bets on this fight with you. Will you man up or keep talking nonsense out your a$$??

I don't know about your betting habits, all I know is you make predictions and when you're wrong say you were lieing so I don't know if I can trust a bet with a guy who does that.

I wouldn't have a bet with Bob Arum either because he's another from the "Yesterday I was lieing, today I'm telling the truth" cloth.

Definitely better technically. I think he has a problem with movers and most certainly appears to have problems with fighters who don't engage/lead.

I wish Burgos took a few more risks and committed to his punches more, I know he was weary of Mikeys power but I feel that fight could of been really interesting if he took a few risks or went out on his shield.
He must of known he had the power to hurt Mikey at least so I don't understand why he didn't just think my career is on the line here, I may as well go for broke. Not saying he would of won but it would of been interesting to see but seemingly he was just contempt on just hearing the final bell.

I've not seen the Burgos fight yet.

Here's a question, has Gamboa ever fought a guy as big as Mikey?

Did you see them face to face? Mikey has maybe an inch on Gamboa.

Nah not seen that either.

If Gamboa does beat Garcia which I think he can. Yeah he will get a lot of credit on here. It will open up doors for Gamboa and put him in the mix again. Maybe he fights the Burns/Crawford winner if he beats Garcia.

Mikey had on boxing boots tho, and Gamboa probably had dress shoes which makes you look taller as well I think Darleys Perez was the same height as Mikey, and Jorge Solis is a bit taller.

face to face during that tv azteca interview? mikey had on his boxing shoes and gamboa had on some dress shoes, made the margin smaller.

thats actually one of the variables in this fight the height advantage of mikey. I've seen gamboa make up for that height difference with his speed but i don't know if he will be able to get away from it with mikey

and i don't think it will be like rigo vs donaire, gamboa doesn't have that kind of counter punching ability, or from what I've seen from him.

i think how this fight goes is really up to which gamboa will show up (in terms of UD, or KO)

either way, its a toss up.
