    that's exactly what happened. gamboa is the better fighter pound-for-pound, but it was a featherweight versus a junior welterweight in there.

          Girl behind Max when he was talking to Crawford is a ****ing goddess.

            I honestly don't know what this says about Crawford. He should have won that fight. He was much bigger.

              Like seriously this was the biggest mistake of his career IMO
              There are guys he could beat there, I still think he would have beaten Rios there, Crawford is just the better fighter.

                Gamboa still looked good, he just lost to a smarter and better fighter. I still dont think he's finished and can make some noise

                  Not as boring as many thought it would be.

                    People....I told you he would get in trouble because HE JUMPS IN WITH HIS PUNCHES, just like Keith Thurman does....remember that when HE faces a counter puncher.

                    Please stop blaming it on size....Gamboa chose to move up and he has proven before that he can compete so obviously, Crawford's skills were the difference tonight. Tell Gamboa to move his little ass down to where you guys think he belongs.

                      fight should of never have happened, shame on gamboas management for letting this fight go ahead, everything was set up for crawford to win, from the weight the height the reach to the hometown advantage not to mention gamboas absence from the sport and still and STILL he only just managed to overwhelm the tiny gamboa and was getting schooled early. boa needs to fight at his natural weight and crawford needs to fight people his size
