Gamboa was one of my favorite fighters when he was like 2-0 fighting guys who were 31-1. He could have been so much more.

Triangle theories are not to be taken seriously in boxing. They're for casuals. How can he say Gamboa is better when he's running in the Postol fight?

These fighters know what they are getting into way before the fight happens. I understand its an advantage but their are alot of other advantages that you cant change that a fighter has to get around size,height, reach, but they KNOW that. If they thought they way your thinking right now then they shouldnt take the fight. They still do knowing full what advantages the other fighter has. Its just bs to me man they cant go into a fight seeing all the money they are going to make, but once they lose claim disadvantages.
If Golovkin brings Kell Brook up to middleweight and loses, he will get absolutely hammered for it. Even though Kell is excellent, the size difference should nullify his skill set. When you get two excellent fighters, the bigger man should ultimately win.

Originally posted by El-blanco View PostOne of my favourite fights in recent years. Gamboa was making bud look silly fir those first few rounds until bud started timing him. Gamboa is one of the best offensive fighters around. It's a shame he signed with that bum 50.
It still boggles my mind he fought to get out of his contract with too rank to sign with 50.
As soon as 50 offered 2 mill for him, top rank was all over that deal.

Crawford out box the crap out of postal took away his jab, decent win but Crawford still is overrated by many on here. Still has a glass chin that has not been tested yet and when the time comes it will be exposed. It's going to take a lot for me to take Crawford seriously. Lets see how does against a pressure fighter like Lamont and that will tell us what type of fighter he really is. He needs to move up nothing at 140 for Crawford

Of course Gamboa was his toughest fight. Gamboa is a better boxer than bud. If Campbell was a natural 140 fighter he would have kod bud. Gamboa's 128 pounder. Either way he took the fight though hit bud with all types of s***, but effed-up and tried the broader bigger guy and paid for it. Still Gamboa didn't lose any stock in that fight. He came in and made the bigger guy look ****** all the way up to the fifth round.Last edited by BigOneFromCuba; 07-24-2016, 05:18 PM.
