    What? You think highly of Gamboa.....based on what exactly? Don't get me wrong....this was a very good win for TC but to say he's faced and beat BETTER opposition than Adrien is crazy and completly false. I'd like to hear your rationale for your opinion with regards to the resumes and performances of both Crawford and Gamboa.

    I think Broner actualy has a good chance at beating TC....the reach advantage isn't there as they both hold i think a 70 inch reach.

    Broner is shorter by 2 inches though but i dont think that would be too much trouble. Broner is not a fighter you can overlook or disregard regardless of his childish antics. He has the speed and power to compete with TC at 140....i also think at 140 he can take punches better.

    I think the fight is pretty close with these two.....im going to go with Broner though.

    Ward got dropped early in his career, and outclassed everyone he's ever fought. Crawford didn't even get knocked down.

    Paulie and PDL are definitely better than Gamboa. Based on ring accomplishments, consistency and longevity. Who has Gamboa beat to be considered better than Two multi-division world champions who have held multiple world titles?

    Gamboa's main claim to greatness came from his extensive and impressive AM accomplishments. His pro career pales in comparison.

    A lot of people thought he lost that fight against Paulie. Lost to Maidana, and was getting hit time after time. He couldn't even keep Rees off him. The better boxer is clearly TC. He destroyed an Olympic champion who was faster, and stronger than he was. Who has Broner looked good against?

    PDL was a fringe contender, and nearly beat Broner. Many people thought Paulie won that fight as well.

    Yup and looked much better doing so. Gamboa would out speed Paulie and win a comfortable UD.

    But a lot of people thought Broner lost to him and Paulie. Gamboa looked better than Broner beating PDL. Gamboa would out speed Paulie and win a UD.

    Broner is a stationary fighter with decent power, TC would move around and out box him. He wouldn't KO him, but would win a UD.
