    just came to my mind...lot of fireworks and more than one hitting the canvas to get up and keep going,but of course i think Gamboa will KO him inside 6-7 rds

    As of now i would pick Hamed by KO but that could change depending of what Gamboa does in the rest of his career.

    I hated Hamed with a passion but... I think he woulda put that fraud Gamboa in a coma.

    Hamed would win this the way things are currently.. Gamboa hasn't hit his prime just yet..

    Really fun fight. Personally I think the "Gamboa's chin" issue has been overblown, and he's got the speed to punish Naz for his wide punches. But we'll be in a lot better position to decide this one in a few years.

    Hamed puts Gamboa to sleep.

    Hamed is a myth, he was never an elite fighter, just hype. Gamboa takes it easy.

    Hamed. More power, just as quick, better chin.

    Hamed was only dropped when very off-balance because of his constant upper-body leaning. He was never really hurt, and always got straight back up to usually knock the other guy out. Gamboa has been dropped multiple times early, and rarely because of balance problems. And he's yet to face a noted puncher.

    Current Gamboa gets knocked out, mid rounds.

    Hamed knocks him over the top rope.

    If you're thinking that Gamboa has power that even remotely approaches Hamed's power... stop posting now.

    Has there been a fighter since Hamed with that sort of power? I don't think so.
