Gamboa vs. Pac in a 6 rounder, right now, who do you favour.

If Roy Jones was born about 20 years later and just made his debut last year, destroying C levels effortlessly, then suddenly he decided to fight Pavlik, would Pavlik's experience at the top level matter all that much?

Or say, if Roy Jones fought Chris Eubank in 1991, who would win? Would Eubank's pro experience at the top level mean more than Jones' superior talent?

 

huki, you are a good analyst, when you can be bothered to be objective, but quite often these days, and to a greater and greater extent, you let your agendas blind you. It's sad, really...:-(

 

Not to mention that Gamboa is still a better technical boxer than Pacquiao. I think people are forgetting that part. It's not like Yuri doesn't know how to box. He just needs to build up stamina.

Pac doesn't have much of a power or speed advantage over Yuri like he does against most of his opponents, and if stamina isn't an issue, then it basically comes down to styles. I still think Pac would win because his punches are straighter, but in a short fight, it's a pretty even matchup. Make it 12 rounds and Pac cruises to a UD or gets a late TKO.

 

Gamboa quits in the 1st round, after he realized he can not take Pac's proven combination of speed and power.

 

What agenda do I have? Give some more examples of this. This is the way I truly feel about the matchup, Gamboa is the greatest prospect I have ever seen since I've started watching boxing closely.

I'm guessing Dawson destroying B level MW Pavlik is one of these examples?

And you didn't answer the Roy Jones questions.

 

If Pacman is a one dimensional crude brawler/puncher...so is a prime Tyson...

...ridiculous...:bart

...I blame you for encouraging and leading on poor huki...:verysad

 

Zelenoffing is the simpler, correct term.

Is it that hard for people to see that even a green (but very experienced amateur and confident, fast-rising pro fighter) Gamboa could give Pac huge problems and could adjust to Pac's offense?

 

Gamboa is 26 and has huge and wide-randing experience! By that age, and with much less experience, some guys have won and unified world titles...

You call him a prospect! He is! But that's because he hasn't fought anyone yet and looks good and is still unbeaten. But don't call him a prospect because he has only 9 fights to his name...

...even Amir Khan has fought better opposition and he's only 21!

 

Pac man by brutal and emberresing stoppage in a laughable mismatch.

 

You're making pointless comparisons. Khan? Pac and a prime Tyson shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence. And you still didn't answer the Roy Jones questions.
