...who would you bet climbs higher in the P4P rankings when he reaches his prime as a boxer: Yuriorkis Gamboa Jorge Linares Juanma My friends and I argued this while waiting 35 minutes for PacMan to walk to the ring this past Saturday.
I would say Juanma. He seems to have very sound technical skills as well as excellent physical attributes. His power is great. Linares next. I really like his style and he is good to watch. Gamboa I think has the most potential but I question whether he will have the dicipline to become a top professional. Unless he alters his style when he fights the top dogs he might be in some trouble. Then again he could just blitz them. Its all speculation for me though..
Marathon races are a mother****er. Would anyone have said that Bernard Hopkins would win the long haul against Roy Jones back in 95' or 00'? It's impossible to say for me.
From what we've seen of them, JuamMa is the clear favorite. Gamoba is spectacualar, but he has to fix those holes in his defense.
