    Gamboa needed 5 KDs to finish Solis while Pacquiao did it in 2 KDs.

    Solis might say Pac doesn't hit hard, but Pac's results show differently. Either he hits hard or his punches are extremely accurate and he hits people at the right spot.

    Just cause Pac fans disagree doesn't mean we are defensive.

    Solis said Pac was feather fisted a long time ago. Doesn't make it so.

    Haha, yeah he did. Solis, like a lot of previous opponents, said it wasn't Pac's power that did him in, but the speed.

    *******s can accept this: (pac hit harder than shane) and say cotto should know
    But cant accept this: (gamboa hits harder than pac) even tho solis would know

    Its ok it doesnt take anything from pac... he is still p4p. stop crying

    Gamboa boxed with Solis on the first round, Lederman scored that round for Solis. Gamboa then proceeds to turn up the heat in the 2nd, KD's Solis and finishes him in 4th.

    Pac boxes with Solis first 7 rounds and struggles. He gets cut in the 7th, turns up the heat and pratically KD Solis that round. He finishes him off in the next round.

    Solis would know better but he atleast had 6 rounds of "boxing" with Pac and 1 round with Gamboa. He tasted Gamboa's power straight away.

    Watching the vids though, it does look like Gamboa's punches were having more of an effect. That said, both khtfo when they both decided to get serious.

    I agree. Thats why even Gamboa said there is no comparison between the Solis Pacman fought and the one he fought, at least he was honest here. But that doesnt change the fact Gamboa hits harder than Manny. Manny is great, but not everything is exclusive to him like many *******s think. Like Manny Gamboa may also leave a legacy of greatness and prove to be a better fighter at 126 than Manny was, but then Gamboa has not faced legends yet to be fair. Once he faces Lopez and John we will see how truly great he can be.

    I hope this isnt one of those thinly veiled threads suggesting gamboa hits harder because he is black and therefore a superior athlete.

    Dont see whats the big deal.

    Its his opinion and his opinion doesnt detract anything from Pac as a fighter.

    Well its obvious, you can see just by looking. Gamboa holds his stance more firmly than pac leaving him to throw more of his weight into his punches. Pac just throws tons of combinations and beats his opponent down. I swear since the Hatton fight hes been made out to be a monster. He knocked down cotto twice but they werent devastating Knockdowns otherwise cotto wouldnt have gotten up. its more the speed and volume of pacs punches that do the damage rather than the one punch knockout power

    No Gamboa does not hit harder than pacman at that weight. You are talking about the same ****ing pacman that layed out barrera and marquez. Gamboa is a great fighter and I think his boxing skills are better than manny's, but as far as power no contest pacman all day. Remember his power carried over to WELTERWEIGHT which is unheard of.
