Gamboa calls out Lomachenko

[Redd Foxx]

he was in a fight of the year candidate against Terance Crawford a guy who weigh as a junior middleweight and will be one of the best fighters in Boxing. The Smaller Gamboa held his own and even buzzed Crawford and won the first 4 rounds until he got to brave for his own good.

Gamboa outclassed a prime Salido and beat him easily. The same Salido that after the Gamboa lost beat Juanma Lopez and went on to be the 126 bogeyman.

Yeah but pitty pat puncher Lomochenko will flattened him.......get out of here with the nonsense this is a 50/50 fight.

Though you're giving Gamboa too much credit against Crawford, the Salido connection is very real. If Gamboa has it together, this is 50/50. People have already forgotten that Gamboa was even more hyped and feared than Loma is.
That said, I predict Gamboa will have mental cobwebs. Flattened? Pfft.

I don't think it's likely but not impossible. Gamboa gets really ragged when hurt or gassed. He's mostly looked like **** since moving up from fw, except for the 4 rounds. That loss was rough. And even at fw he was getting dropped a lot by low caliber comp.

That was Crawford, right? I think his biggest problem here forward will be mental. Even if his body is still prime, his mind might be broken from what happened in that fight. Confidence is everything in this sport.

Crawford fight was in June last year.
He had a comeback fight vs Joel Montes de Oca in Mexico last November.
Won by 6th round stoppage and been on the milk carton ever since.

You got guys like Mikey Garcia and Andrade and Ward who can get fights but choose inactivity and then guys like Rigo and Gamboa who probably want to fight but their handlers just keep ****ing around.
Rigo and Gamboa should be the ones in court trying to get away lol

Definitely the inactivity will hurt Gamboa and he might be damaged goods after Crawford but Gamboa showed he has tons of heart, he was eating bombs from Crawford and was still getting up. I remember Gamboa was touted highly like Lomochenko is now and then he got KO'ed so that why people should pump the brakes on Lomochenko.

Lomochenko is a good fighter but he hasn't been tested. Beating the TBA King Gary Russell is a good win but by no means it makes you good enough to beat a fighter like Gamboa who punches hard and is quick. Sucks that Gamboa and Rigo were a waste of talent due to inactivity with promotional issues and didn't fight the fighters that everybody were craving for.

loma aint knocking gamboa out lol. That's crazy talk. Hell I don't know if he truly has an edge in the skills department. But I look at it like this: if they only way to beat gamboa is to drag him into a brawl and catch him, then I favor gamboa in the hypothetical. He don't hit half as hard as crawford and he damn sure aint as quick in hands and feet. I just cant imagine loma hitting gamboa with pitty patty punches all night with gomboa speed and temperment.

Remember when Gary Russell Jr was going to have too much speed for Lomachenko?

[MOMENTO MORI]

poor gary. God bless his heart but speed amounts to nothing without power. ...and the dude throws at one speed. so predictable and easy to counter. dont act like loma didnt any extraordinary beating gary russell lol.

[Zaroku]

Dang! Gamboa still walking on sunshine after that beating Crawford put on him!

Sometimes it feels good!
Walking on sunshine music starts....

[PivotandRoll]

Wow you fickle morons...>99% of you are complete morons...Gamboa will **** Loma up...Mismatch...Gamboa is faster at everything...Loma will lose the tools that wins him fights...I can't wait to see Loma try and slide around Gamboa just to find he's done it first and is hitting him with 3-4 punches... Seriously you guys lack IQ points.

[Derranged]

Lomochenko-Gamboa won't happen either.

Next year all Arum is going to do is set up a mega fight between Lomochenko-Donaire in late 2016. A guy that lost to Rigo and got killed by Walters plus the fact he is a part time fighter.

This is what will happen. No Lomochenko vs Rigo, Gamboa
Or Walters instead we will just get Lomochenko-Donaire pointless fight

Yea because Gamboa fights 4 times a year just to stay busy....
