The official: Yuriorkis Gamboa vs Terrence Crawford master discussion thread

[-MEGA-]

It's a good fight, but Crawford hasn't captured anyone's imagination and Gamboa's brought himself to the verge of irrelevance. A big win here means a lot to either man, especially Yuri. I think if Terrance wins, many people might regard it as a win over an inactive smaller man. But if Gamboa manages to pull this out, he'll be seen as being real again.

Maybe I'm living in the past (Gamboa) and hoping for the future (Crawford) but I've been excited about this fight ever scince it was made.

There is one thing that Gamboa has not done that Crawford has done on numerous occasions. Do you know what it is?

Got shot in the head? Well, he only did that once I guess...

"At one time." That seems like ages ago. Once upon a time, I had a lot of hopes for Gamboa. I'm real curious to see what he's got left.

Remember when it was ... Gamboa !!! ... Oh yea and those guys Rigo and Lara are really good too..

I can't see Gamboa pulling any of that Slow-Boating stuff against Crawford by the time he winds up and lunges in with one of those weird shots Crawford will probably just shell up he's not as fast as he was in the lower divisions ... If Gamboa swarms him on the ropes he may find some success but he can also get clipped on the inside and get dropped... Idk Gamboa hasn't made the smartest career moves. He's been chasing money, not legacy and this time I think he's bit off more than he can chew. Crawford by stoppage

How could somebody with so much hype around him just fall off like that? It seemed he was a promoters dream too.

I got Terrence Crawford keeping Gamboa at range and out boxing him. Gamboa just isn't active enough these days to be jumping up in weight and taking on fights like this. Still should be fun to watch though.

plus terence is a lot bigger guy than gamboa.
