    A true chess match between two standout amateurs. Who wins?

    Great fight bit it would have to be atleast 130 because there's no way that Gamboa could make 126 he probably can't even make 130 would have to be a catchweight on second thought.

    Loma vs Gamboa would be a DREAM fight at 126 if we were talking about the Gamboa of 5-6 years ago.

    At this point, we don't even know what Gamboa has left.

    Gamboa, like Rigo will be a guy people look back on in years to cone and say "what if?"

    I don't think Gamboa has ever been outboxed.

    I'd like to see Lomachenko at 130 before making any predictions.

    I thought he got outboxed against Crawford after Crawford started to figure him out.

    Gamboa needs a couple tune up fights first. he has gotten bitten by the thing that has ruined a lot of potentially great boxers - greed. Many of these guys want to jump straight to the big Pay Per view fight, the path illuminated by Mayweather. but they aren't Mayweather in terms of being able to be in boxing shape all the time. This is a great match if Gamboa goes back to fighting guys his own size and weight and works his way back into the spot light. Otherwise, he will end up just being a big name on Lomanchenkos win list.

    Chess match? You seen Gamboa's last fight? Not exactly the Gambo that fought Solis.

    Loma UD :smoke

    Lomachenko dominates him and stops him late. Gamboa is brutally overrated.
