As for the chin-check; no he has not had a "real" chin-check yet. But I am willing to bet money that it is iron. Anyone that thinks it is glass or shaky is WAY off. He has had numerous flush shots in the past and has never even been stunned. Check out the Luque (or was it Kabede?) fight....in one of those he takes 3 completely flush power shots in a 20 second time frame and isn't even slightly stunned; he keeps coming forward. Good competition to judge by? No. But theres no reason for people to be doubting his chin at all whatsoever
I think Pacquiao only has like 3 or 4 fights left, if a Gamboa fight is gonna happen he better do something big quick
Gamboa is a great fighter, unbelivable talent but i wouldn't put him in with pac just yet, gamboa likes to keep his hands very low and use his reflexs to avoid punches, while i fell he could counter pac alot, pacs hand are fast enough to hit gamboa and he's got the power behind them too do some damage. Let gamboa go after john first and get some experience at the top level before facing pac
Yeh its not going to happen. Pacman will be looking to cash out for his last fights. Diaz, Hatton, JMM III, etc. An even better fight would be Guzman vs Gamboa. Just the thought of it gives me chills
Yep I think he could get Valero out of there in under 5 rounds. John would be a much tougher fight but John has never fought a guy like Gamboa who is dangerous at all times and constantly pressuring. I think Gamboa would catch him late and take him out when he gets him hurt. I can picture it; John would be running for his life the entire fight
seriously Gamboa is the future of teh division...GAmboa/Linares How bout Gamboa/JMM and better yet Gamboa/Guzman..lets see how for real Guzman is
He won't need to go to Indonesia b/c his promotion would get him into the mandatory spot - and there's just no way that John's promoter will win the purse bid...
