    I read on another site that this fight is being seriously considered. Good match-up but I think Cabalerro takes this one.

    Are you serious?! Gamboa by murder. Caballero sucks and kicks when he fights.

    He completely dominated Ponce De Leon and beat the crap out of Steve Molitor, therefore handling both a busy puncher and a pure technician. He's a VERY tough fighter to beat for anyone. Similar to Paul Williams, huge height, busy punching and good power.

    But Caballero fights at 122 and Gamboa at 130. Gamboa is just too big for him.

    Gamboa is going to be knocked out violently by Caballero.

    Caballero can give gamboa some trouble b/c he's tall and can punch but remember u cant compare gamboa handspeed and power th either molitor or ponc de leon

    Gamboa's chin is probably worse than Molitor's :lol:

    Gamboa is champ at 126, which is only 4 pounds more.

    Gamboa is 5′ 5″
    Caballero is 5′ 11″ !!!

    if i was gamboa i will stay away from caballero at 126..maybe will meet him at 130 where gamboa may be more comfortable.

    I would have to favor Caballero in this one, probably by knockout.

    very good point bigbone
    i forgot how damn good cabalero was
    the way he handled molitor was real impressive
    molitor is a very good complete fighter (wo also has deacent under-rated power the record is mis-leading)
    cabalaro handled him with ease

    celestino is a very under-rated fighter himself
    i'm picking him late tko/ko
