    Gamboa by KO or tight SD, I think his power wud wear John down towards the latter rounds

    Based on what we saw in the Salido fight, I don't see Gamboa KO-ing John but I see him winning 7-9 rounds and the decision. John just isn't active enough or recently tested enough to fend off Gamboa in my eyes.

    John is a seasoned veteran, even though very inactive, I see him take Gamboa into deep waters, winning a hard earned decision 116-112 or a more close one 115-113...

    i saw rocky getting to CJ's face a few times, i think Gamboas speed and power can turn it into a disaster for CJ

    Im shaky on Gamboa I'll take John but its not a safe pick

    he's inactive he looked bad in the late rounds of the John fights

    Can Gamboa's power get to him who know's

    But I'll take John

    they all are valid opinions, what I think is that Cj is ready for the take, maybe a few yeas back he would had a better chance against Gamboa, by the way Salido was out in that twelve round, only Gamboas own stupidity save him from the ko, by the way he fought JM Marquez and La cobrita Gonzalez, and Gamboa hurt him like no other.

    Rocky Juarez gave CJ all he could handle for ****s sake. Gamboa gets in like rocky did, CJ aint gonna make it out the way he did with Rocky.

    i'm going to say YG by late round KO. All those injuries and inactivity is not helping John in this fight.

    Rocky Juarez gave John a good fight and almost had him in the end, it's just that Rocky is a slow starter. Gamboa jumps on his prey from the first bell.

    I have to agree.. the Chris John that closely outboxed Marquez is not the guy he is today and Bamoa is young, to quick and to fast for Chris.. I think Chris gets over whelmed HOWEVER I do see Chris John being able to counter Gamboa well if.. If Gamboa goes Ganster Gospel and get wreckless John counters him to death and gets a few flash knockdowns..

    Gamboa with a plan over runs John

    Gamboa without a plan gets hit with a counter he doesn't see and finds the floor..
