My only hope is that Gamboa can pull a Tyson and overcome that height and reach disadvantage. I'm hoping I'm wrong, but this just doesn't look good for Yuri. Earlier today I looked up their heights. TC is listed at 5'8" and Gamboa at 5'5 1/2". Unless Crawford is wearing lifts, he looks like his height advantage is greater than 2 1/2 inches.

Terrence Crawford wins this fight easy i think....Gamboa does'nt seem like he even takes the sport seriously anymore. He may mess around and even get knocked out in this fight, better boxer and definitely way better defense then Gamboa.Comment

In the Amateurs: Crawford fought at 132, Gamboa fought at 112 & 126
In the Pros: Craword fought at 135-140, Gamboa fought mostly at 126
Crawford is the naturally bigger guy and he's taller with a big reach advantage.
Gamboa is very fast but he's gonna have a hard time getting within punching range. Crawford won't even have to stay on the outside, he can outmuscle Gamboa if he wants to. Finally, I don't think Gamboa can hurt Crawford, but Crawford can definitely hurt Gamboa.
Gamboa is more talented (IMO) and has the speed advantage. If they were the same size, I'd pick him. Size matters in Boxing, so I think Crawford takes it.Comment
