    Looked like he and Ruiz “trained” together lol.
    Lol

    Gamboa seems to go down in every fight he’s in. He’s known for it. Tank knocking Yuri down three times doesn’t impress me. But Gamboa took several flush shots in that fight that didn’t phase him, punches that would’ve normally sent him to the canvass. That I took note of. Made me wonder if Tank’s power followed him to 135.

      The problem was he didn’t come through as he should, showed up fat, performed like garbage m. He deserves every bit of criticism for it.

      I think they know Davis is not where he needs to be as a professional and are definitely protecting their investment. We’d all do same.
      I agree with you, kind of odd lol.

      That said you cant talk a big game unless you fight some big names. Hes doing the talking, now lets hope we get some names.

        Those uppercuts, bah gawd! We were amazed how dude was still standing. He took several in a row and would not go down. There is no way his power has carried up.

          Gamboa always get tired. Tired to the point where he keeps his hands down or wants to grab and hold. Ive seen him dropped so many times while doing this. Its like after a couple rounds his arms are done and he has no defense.

          I had great hope for the guy as when he was younger he had that tyson look. Hes just faded and faded. Plus Ive seen fights he should of lost easy and they give him the win. He never was that good.

            A lot of people noticed this. Put a prime, elite opponent at 135 in there, and Tank’s power may not be the weapon it once was.

              That and Tank like to leap into his power shots. When he fights some guys that have cut angels and dont stay in front of him its going to be a long night.

                We’ll never know just how good prime Gamboa was. He was never really tested. But he was an electrifying fighter in his day. Frankly, I think he would’ve beaten Tank if he was still that guy. And yeah, Yuri faded bad, and got at least one win he shouldn’t have. He’s not alone in that regard.

                  All I could think of was how dizzy Tank will be once Loma gets to dancing. Loma will be a Ginsu knife to Tanks tomato.

                    that asian guy that lopez fought would beat him with ease and im dead serious. he has no boxing skills. in the fonseca fight this was confirmed and now its double confirmed. he has to have his opponent stand right in front of him which is why they keep matching him with old and or small fighters who are unable to move away from his power shots due to size and or depleted reflexes. he doesn't train at all so its no surprise. they want heavy bags for him

                      Fat Dan wrote that Davis/Leo Santa Cruz is on tap for 2020 so that will be interesting from the standpoint that Leo will definitely hit him a lot but probably doesn’t have the power to stop him.

                      Depending on how he looks defensively will give us a sense if they think he is ready to step up.
