    Donaire is, russel jr is faster than both though, I hope he goes on to good things this years, 122-130 are turning into really fun divisions with a lot of very good boxers.

    Donaire definitely is, and I think Gamboa might be too. Russell Jr is still a prospect.

    Hope he moves along abit quicker cause he is ready to start taking on the big dogs of the division. By the end of the year I want a big name on his CV

    Gamboa is DEFINITELY not more technically sound, I don't think even the Cuban fans would claim he is. He's a bit more athletic.

    Donaire is pretty technically sound, though. I'd say he and Russell Jr. aren't far apart in terms of technical skill or athleticism. Obviously Donaire is more powerful (although Russ' power is underrated)

    I think he and Donaire are on par... he is definitely more technically sound than Gamboa.. BUT that doesn't mean he would beat either... at this stage of his career I bet both KO him... but by the end of the year, maybe its a different story

    Gary up to now has had good defence when he is up in that ass. Think of how hard it would be if he decided to go on the run and counter punch.

    Gary needs to fight someone with a pulse before he trash talks
