    The people who said that were obviously being hasty. He still has to work on things, his overconfidence and(as KG said) higher than neccessary workrate mainly. Still, his potential is very high.

    Why do you leave Guzman for last and act as if he's a step below the others you named?

    Did Gamboa get Kd because of his inability to keep his hands up ? I was picking up on his flaws all day in the "Gamboa works the Mitts " thread. He needs to keep his hands up!

    I Agree............Linares looks much better than Gamboa...I think Linares would KO Gamboa!!!!

    Gamboa looks very sloppy!! hebetter avoid Linares for a while

    and why the hell is Kellerman & Merchant jerking him off about his handspeed?....I dont see much hand speed:-( ...i just see alot of punches

    Yup. But he wasn't hurt IMO. He was up at 2 and came right at Jimenez. Not shaky. He is still getting hit alot though. But he keeps coming forward.

    Yes, his potential is high, but he's still a prospect.. thats all I'm trying to really say.. And so what if I said Guzman's name last? It's not like I mean't to do it because I think he sucks.. Don't try to turn that into an argument..

    Yes his work rate is not needed...he should work on precision not work rate

    Just shows that Max Kellerman syndrome aka Amsterdam-mania does more harm then good to the reps of very talented fighters.

    You said "I can't even see him beating Guzman", as if that is someone he's supposed to be able to beat. But oh well, not worth an argument.
