    That spazzy right hook is the only form of right hand he's ever thrown. For my the pinnacle of it's :bloodness was against JMM, at least tonight he was able to penetrate the guard on very brief occasions, Marquez wasn't even half as focused on the defensive aspect as Burns was yet every right hand fell short, veered sideways or went backwards only for Nacho to dodge with his shoulder-roll.

    I don't see that fight happening mate :-(. Arum ****ed it up Juanma was looking shaky more and more and he kept putting him in to build it up.

    He blew it badly IMO..Gamboa's past that level i love to see him vs Donaire or Rios. That would be a great fight! Flea was bullish with his comments on that fight.

    Have you not heard mate? Looks like Gamboa/Rios next year, Gamboa might skip 130 and go straight to lightweight.

    Just talking about hype of fighters and how Degale's hype was unwarranted. Typical Frank job.

    He did well to create distance and land his punches on the inside when that guy was trying to hold.

    Looked good.

    But now we're guessing. Like Les Darcy would have been the best middleweight ever, that Aaron Pryor would have dominated at welterweight, that Sal Sanchez would have been the best featherweight in history....

    Almost without exception fighters with "what if?" careers tend to get overrated IMHO.


    (The Sal Sanchez one might be right, but you get my point!!):lol:

    Gamboa vs Rios sounds a bit too good to be true. I worry it might be Arum just making noise.

    Rios beats him cos he is too big and hits too hard imo.

    Yeah I heard but still vexed as i have wanted this fight since forever, just Bob trying to juice the hype the old *******. The Mtwaga fight should of woke him up and got Arum to make the fight before Juanma got beat. No point being wise now.

    Gamboa should stay where he is and look for Donaire.

    Yep only other week Rios is talking like he's on way to 140lbs then this. As you say could be just noise.

    Sorry for being a dick, but what time is Bute expected on?

    Btw, I thought Kats had lost a step. I'll give my full account tomorrow.
