Right now i have to go with gamboa. I don't know if donaire has the power to hurt gamboa @ 126. Gamboa's speed will give donaire problems.
until Gamboa proves himself first against a credible opponent, I'll go with ND. Donaire is tested and proven and that is why he is a p4p figter.
Gamboa's competition has been solid. Mtagwa made JML look like crap, Salido and Barros are good fighters as well. That said, Gamboa's weaknesses are made for Nonito's counters and i can see Nonito winning by TKO.
Gamboa's too big and strong for Donaire at this point. Gamboa by KO most likely....gotta give Donaire a couple more years to put on weight and get comfortable at that weight and then I see this as Donaires fight.
Big Gamboa fan here..went to his fights when they were free in Primm NV. His talent is being wasted. He goes out Solis style against a real boxer like Nonito. the flipino flash is no Al Seeger.
So you comparing Gamboa to Solis? And you base this on what? ND if he fights Gamboa now, we will b picking his body parts in Indonesia, Gamboas is arguable the faster fighter today with power to spare, and you think a fighter like Nd that has make a name for himself fighting smallest boxer can deal with a faster and more powerful fighter than him, and you haven't seen the best from Gamboa.
You know what, I don't think he will b winning at 122 much less at 126, or he jumps now and fights Juanma or Gamboa, or he take it easy and fights Rigondeaux, Vazquez and the others 122lbs, I don't c him going through Rigondeaux, Vazquez, Juanma and Gamboa without losing.
Gamboa by chicken out at the press conference, he will just take a taxi straight to the AP and fly back 2 Korea.
