Gamboa wont beat Pacman. Hes way overrated on here, already destined to be an ATG great you guys are blind.
Technically he's more than ready. But it's about more: digging deep, getting up from a possible knock-down, getting tired, getting hit hard, executing a plan B if plan A doesn't work, etc. etc.. I think most people who think Gamboa would win, solely judge on his technique (and i don't blame them). But technique alone doesn't win you a 12 round war.
Gamboa is a shining prospect who's becoming known quick, but he has only foughten nine times in 6/8 round fights.. Can Gamboa go all 12 rounds with someone like Pac? Don't think so.. Pacquiao has proven he can defeat fighters who have the same style as Gamboa, but Gamboa hasn't fought anyone with the power or experience that Pac has.. Gamboa is good, but he's getting too much hype.. Let him fight for a couple more years..
Five pages(and counting) for a fight that will probably never take place.:think Gamboa brings nothing to the table against Pac, he is at least a year from proving anything, by that time Pac will probably be getting ready to fight Hatton, and will not be looking back. I seriously doubt a crossroad will ever exist between these two guys!:deal
Is this a joke? A proven great fighter and current P4P fighter against a guy fighting 6 rounds against no-hopers? I think Pac beats him, and probably early. I don't need to go into the stylistic matchup, because whatever it is, it favors Pac. KOing a bunch of tomato cans doesn't make you the next SRL. Sorry.
