Interesting point, if above Lightweight Gamboa will be jumping 2 weight classes for the fight :think Shattered to see bam bam leaving LW, he had a couple more fight with good lads ahead of him.
Its at 135. They think he can make 135 as long as he stays off the hamburgers and fries during camp. True...rios is his own worst enemy, dont sympathise with his apparent weight struggles. Rios has always said he wants to go to 140 but would stay at 135 for a gamboa fight.
Guerrero and burns were able to step up to lightweight and beat the supposed bigger, stronger katsidis. Rios takes that analogy to another level considering how big and heavy he gets after weighing in. Hits hard too. Hope the cuban is up to it. :good
My early prediction, Gamboa will start well and befuddle Rios with his speed, movement and athleticism but he will ultimately be walked down and stopped in the 7th or 8th. Gamboa's chin is not great and he is yet to taste the power of a bigger man like Rios. It will resemble the first fight between Calderon and Segura which was an absolute **** and balls tearer! Nice!
absolutely pumped for this fight!! it will be a war... but have a feeling for some reason that gamboa will outbox rios not sure why when i love rios!
WAR BAM BAM !! WAR GAMBOA !! :happy:happy:happy:happy I can't pick a winner I'm just going to sit back and watch !
