Roberto Garcia, "Gamboa won't last 12 rounds"!

And you know that Pacquio's will is greater than Gamboa, because you have a willmeter, and Pacquios chin is better because he is being down and out a few times and Gamboa's not...

 

fraud will box pacroid all night long, the pinoy is not even in the same zip code, we know the outcome of that fight, Gamboa vs. Rios is more interesting...

 

That was during the time when he was reckless, he's not like that anymore. Rios won't beat the Gamboa that fought the way he fought Ponce de Leon.

 

Rios by KO.

 

The Rios from the Acosta fight will....The question is, will he be healthy at the weight.

 

We'll see If Gamboa is comfortable enough at 135. Although I don't think he'll stay there post-Rios fight.

 

Reminds me when Jack Loew said Hopkins won't last 12 vs. Kelly.

 

Hey its all good!

Havent been excited like that for a while (about a fight)

 

:think think so? I noticed Gamboa abit more cautious vs Pdl and eventually figured him out. Obviously Rios will be coming forward, but you don't think Gamboa will play role of counterpuncher? I think he might play it safe landing quick 3-4 combos and moving out. He has great stamina he won't gas like Cotto did. Rios might time his left hook on Gamboa, but might take 2-3 shots for everyone he lands. If these 2 bring their A game might go down as a SD. If they were the same size stylistically I'd proobably favor Gamboa, but then Rios has been effective with his style vs similar size mobile boxer punchers. Gamboa used to be power dependent, but I think he's improved as a boxer. He may trade with Rios when he needs to, but wisely box if its working for him. I have a feeling Gamboa will carry his speed and power, but he won't be that reckless vs Rios. One punch I think will change the course of this fight. They might feel power never felt before in their careers.

I'm still kinda on the ropes as to how wins this...If Rios can some how make weight in a healthy manner, I'm liking his chances by KO in the later rounds....With his relentless pressure and sturdy chin...He will pressure Gambao and wear him down with his body work.

~flip side~

If Gamboa can somehow weather the storm and box and give Bam Bam angles and avoid being pulled into a brawl with the far bigger man, he could win this fight...Gamboa has lighting fast hands and has enough power to keep Rios honest...Gamboa needs to be moving around and never let Rios set...He needs to keep Rios turning and keep something coming at Rios as Rios tries to engage.

When its all said and done, us fans are the true winner here! Going to be one hell of a fight!

Cant wait!:yep

 

Please post some of this footage of Pacquiao being hurt by Margo, i can recall one bodyshot that winded Manny but that was it.

 

I'm guessing Rios will be gunning to the body early so Gamboa will need to run and gun but eventually, Rios will cut him off and Gamboa will need to get Rios's respect to continue his pace. If Gamboa stuns Rios early, it will be a much easier fight for him. And yes, I definitely agree, Pac-Floyd will not be as good as this fight.
