    A lot of people seem to be under the impression Gamboa is still a young boy the way they speak about bringing him along.
    He's 26.

    For sake of argument, I don't feel he is ready for a John yet, Chris is one tough tough customer, & may exploit the gaps the Cuban leaves in his defence.

    Of course thats a possibility, but from watching yuriorkis he gets hit an awful lot at the level he has been fighting at, or more so, leaves himself open when launching himself. I think John could fluster him a bit. I'm probably just nitpicking though.

    There is no doubt Gamboa is incredible though and probably the future #1.
