    Linares by KO.. I just think Gamboa is a KO waiting to happen and Linares could be the guy to do it.. With Gamboa's suspect chin and leaky defense, Linares can hurt him and jump on him for the finish.. Gamboa may be the faster guy, but Linares got some skill..

    Gamboa have some serious power combine with speed a deadly combo,why you don't see Linares more? I think he is been protected by the Japanese group who owns him in the other hand you see Gamboa almost every month fighting better opposition.

    You took the words right out of my mouth (or finger tips)

    Linares is p4p material.

    Maturity and mental advantage would be on Linares.
    Skillwise, not much margin on this aspect. :)

    Linares is more disciplined with his attack whereas Gamboa is pretty sloppy.

    Gamboa, everytime you watch this guy you expect a 1st round knockout, and he usually gives us that but a UD is a dissapointment right ? This is the most impressive prospect in boxing... you guys are being to hard on him.

    That is true, but linares is not like gamboa's opponents, linares has SERIOUS power.

    Gamboa gets hit a lot with stupid shots. HE is freakishly athletic but it can only take you so far if you don't work on your technique. I think Linares at this point is further along than Gamboa
