Comments Thread For: Arum: Garcia-Gamboa in Serious Negotiations For 5/17

I like this fight getting made, good fight for Gamboa to get his career more exciting again

[Tobi.G]

Gamboa would never get home field, I wonder what type of judging Gamboa will get out there

Gamboa better go for the kill against Garcia. He has a good shot winning by KO though IMO. But not if he performs like he did in his last two fights.

Lightweight fight? Mmmmm...I would rather this match-up had been at 130. Gamboa didn't look so hot at 135. Then again, Yuri has much more motivation with Garcia, and he should finally have a real coach in his corner. This is going to be a good fight...50/50.

I was thinking the same thing , I guess they are trying to move mikey up for pac

[ColdBlooded]

The idea of Mikey fighting Pacquiao is so ******. Besides, Pacquiao's next three fights are probably Bradley 2, Marquez 5, and Provodnikov.

I am as excited for this as I was for rigo donaire

Mikey is going to get put to sleep. These cubans are ruining TopRanks stable.

GoldenBoy have it right by keeping Lara at arms length

For me the fight is 50/50, but I believe Gamboa has the tools to win the fight. For me he also must be prepared for the disqualification he will be receiving from arum is he destroy also a cash cow as Mickey is. He could be facing the same future of Rigo after winning Donaire. Arum will find several excuses for destroy Gamboa in case he win Mickey. Just his team should be prepared.

Am I the only person here who thinks Mikey wins this easily? I know Mikey gets his due diligence and as crazy as it sounds, I still think he's underrated. I think he's the next great Mexican fighter

No, you're not. Mikey is too fundamentally sound. Gamboa can be fast and flashy, but he's a ko waiting to happen.

if gamboa takes enough risks and doesnt fight in his amateur point-scoring mentality , he can win this fight.
