Comments Thread For: Gamboa Confirms Weight Drop To 126, 130-Pounds

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

A few days ago, attorney Tony Gonzalez, who advises former champion Yuriokris Gamboa (23-1, 16KOs), said he preferred to see his fighter continue his career in a lower weight division - at featherweight or super featherweight.

Gamboa, an Olympic gold medal winner, was undersized and outgunned when he moved up to 135-pounds to challenge WBO lightweight champion Terence Crawford on June 28th. After doing very well in the first round rounds, Crawford eventually broke Gamboa down and dropped him four times before a ninth round stoppage.

Good move! His career was over at 135. Just doesn't have the height to fight above 130 and achieve any real success against anybody worthy..

Big mistake.

[Cubanstyle]

That's a no brainer after his last two performances.
Good move

Good move. Like I said, he's too small at 135 and the amount of money in that division is not worth the risk.

His career was over when he signed with g-unot.50 is a whack *****

Great move.

However, I doubt he can make 126. But if he can, that would be great. So many good foods to be made at Featherweight.

Gamboa vs Loma =

126 would be one hell of a division if Gamboa moves down.

He was too small for 135 imo, think this is a good move.

Hopefully he can get to 126 comfortably
