Gamboa ~ Rios out the window, who should Gamboa fight next?

True that. I have a lot of sympathy for him. He won't ever have those caree-defining fights against the best in his division because of the promoter he's with. He can't fight people within his promotional stable (Juanma, Mikey Garcia potentially, and others) anytime soon, and he can't pit himself against people outside of it, either (Broner, Russell Jr when he's reached that level). So what the heck is he left with? A fighter should never be robbed of opportunities like that; especially when he's the main guy of the division! Such a shame :verysad.

 

It's going to be a hard one for Lopez, stylistically, Salido WILL always cause him problems. Very good chin, Lopez has power, but doesn't seem to have the power to deter him...Salido will keep coming. Lopez should take some notes from Cotto's performance on Saturday, use plenty of movement and then plant your feet when needed against the pressure fighter...don't be forced in to exchanges.

Although Lopez has struggled with certain opposition that Gamboa has not, I still think it's somewhat of a toss up bout between the two...one that I'd like to see.

 

I voted all 3, at the same time

 

My choice would be Broner, JuanMa or Jhonny Gonzalez. JuanMa looks unlikely since he'll be facing Salido around March.

The Super-Featherweight division is dead at the moment, so until someone follows Yuri up, he'll have to be content with taking Broner's "0".

 

Hopefully we'll get a chance to see.

 

JuanMa. Still a great fight.

 

Chris John @ 130


Miguel Vazquez @ 135 for his belt

Antonio Demarco at 135 for his belt

 

I don't understand how people still want to see Gamboa-Juanma. Haven't you realized already that Juanma was all hype. In his last 7 fights (since Lontchi) he looked like a bum with nasty power, this is the only thing that has saved him for so long actually. Against really good boxers he will always fail. Even PDL would beat him easily, he just got caught hard and early the first time but I guess he learned the lesson. With a fighter with such good reflexes and power as Yuri's, I don't see Juanma going through round 3-4, honestly. And I don't see him catching Gamboa, even with luck, since faster and more accurate boxers than Juanma had an average connection of only 20% against Gamboa, wich is the best after Mayweather's 14%. Gamboa would humiliate Juanma and probably put his life in danger, seriously, Juanma is one of the boxers who takes more punches and Gamboa is machine gun, brain damange would be bad.

 

Too early for Broner

JML please !

 

Don't know but he needs to move up in weight before Gary russell jr gets to him
