    Oh ya such a bum with two Olympic medals, regarded as one of the best ever amateurs and an interim Champion after less than 10 pro fights!!!!!!

    Gamboa beats his ass. Donaire's too small. He should stay at 118 - work up to 126 gradually.

    gamboa has a glass jaw and donaire is one of the best countpunchers in boxing with power.

    Donaire allday!

    He should whoop mares and maybe agbeko first... not sure who nex after that

    Rigondeaux has the ability, but needs a lot more buildup.

    he's not a bum, but lets not use the Olympics as a gauge for someone's success in the pro

    so many good Olympians couldnt cut it

    It's true that it isn't a great gauge as a pro but proves that he's no bum and he also holds an interim title which he will turn into a 'proper' title in his next fight!

    That is true, but it does give an indication of strong potential. In Rigondeux's case he has an amateur record of 374-12, now it might not be a direct gauge of success in the pro’s but certainly a testament to great technical abilities and it certainly does nothing but grant confidence in this fighters career.

    Forget about this fight, Gamboa just said that he is moving up to 130lbs and then to 135lbs to blow away the Competition.

    Oh yea just like Gamboa-JML was going to happen last year a couple of times.

    The only way that fight happens is if one of the fighters is leaving him and he knows he is injured or going through some major drama in his life or if both fighters are leaving him.

    Arum is going to milk both of these fighters until there is nothing left then he willmake them fight.

    So does Arum have no faith in Juanma getting revenge against Salido? Or is he just hyping this fight up now and not mentioning Lopez's name so he can go back to protecting his biggest money maker from 118-126?
