    Now it's almost certain that Rios will never fight Gamboa because of the weight issues. He lost his Title at the scales cause he couldn't make the 135 limit and it's very unlikely that he will ever fight at 135 again. With that mega fight gone, who would you like to see Gamboa face next?

    I would love to see that fight too but Brad is 140, don't know if Gamboa can fight successfully at that weight. :huh

    I'm still interested in Gamboa-Lopez. Stylistically, it could be a very good, entertaining bout.

    Juanma would be my pick but moving up and fighting Broner would be a quality fight also.

    Yeah, good choice. Broner is actually pretty good and could give Yuriorkis some problems until el Ciclon figures him out and then it's lights out for Broner.

    Broner is a good choice as he is 21-0 and has the WBO. He is the perfect candidate for Yuriorkis to test himself at 130lbs. :good

    Oh sorry! I skimmed through your post and thought you were talking about who Rios could fight next. My bad.

    Yeah, I'd like to seem him against Broner (not happening because of promoter). So preferably, I'd like for him to wait for Donaire to move up. But if not, then I still wouldn't mind seeing him face Juanma at 130.

    He probably can but needs to grow into the division first. By that time Bradley will be a welterweight.

    Yeah I think most of us would still like to see Yuriorkis and JuanMa going at it. But Lopez has a very tough one ahead of him, he has to deal with the very tough and rugged Salido and beat him convincingly. Don't know if Lopez can beat Salido, he looked pretty bad against him last time and I have a feeling that Salido is going to repeat the dosis. :shock:

    Yeah no problem I thought you didn't read the post. Don't know about waiting for Don~Aire as he is still at 122 and could take a while for him to reach 130lbs. Gamboa is almost 30 years old and he needs to fight the best NOW. He can't afford to sit and wait for the others ( who are younger than him ) to come up in weight.
