POSTED BY PUGILISTYC POWER: "This is his usual style of performance against live opponents, relying too much on the physical advantage he has and not setting up a performance. He'll get beat the moment he makes a meaningful fight." SURE, LIKE against Marquez or Vazquez, right??:yep
And do guys think that like that Lopez will defeat Gamboa? No way Jose. Gamboa will take advantage of Lopez's wild shots and desperation, he cannot deal with the insane speed and power of Gamboa, but then again, who can??? :bart
I've never really been impressed with Juanma, maybe I'm being a bit harsh... but I don't think he's going to be as great as some people make him out to be
Do you know that mister future. Gamboa fight wild too.and already had payed a few knockdowns for that, and the problems He hasn't learned ****.
JuanMa is like an Arce who hasn't met his Mijares. 126 is a big challenge for him. He'll meet bigger challenges like Gamboa, Concepcion, Luevano, Caballero, etc.
juanma is relying too much on his physical gifts. he has to put more variety in his attack and use more boxing skills. he basically just throws a 1-2 (jab-straight) from the outside which could be timed and countered by higher level opposition. his defense hasn't been tested yet since he relies on his volume punching for his D by smothering opponents with a ton of punches. very good counter-punchers will make him pay for that. vasquez and rafa marquez will greatly trouble him if they haven't ruined each other yet. it will take more than his physical gifts to defeat elite-level fighters. juanma should realize this before he finally fights one.
:good Im puerto rican and probably will get burned for this , but no way he's going to be better than Cotto, Im not impressed with him. Where are his Mater Boxing skills as HBO said last time, and for God sake he wasnt even fighting an B+ fighter
Dumb ass people on this board forgetting that he was very impressive against Penalosa. After one fight, now he's going to be a bum. Flip Floppin sorry ass mutha****as.
I like this comparison. IMO Juanma is more skilled than Arce, for me he is rather a Vargas, who hasn't met his Tito, an Ortiz who hasn't met his Maidana or a Pavlik who hasn“t met his Hopkins yet. He will, soon. I doubt he can beat anyobody from the following list: Marquez, Vasquez, Chris John, Gamboa.
JuanMa will Destroy Gamboa if they ever meet. 1st rd KO Thats assuming Gamboa dosen't get his glass chin shattered before they meet. And he can beat Marquez, Vasquez, Chris John
I am also Puerto Rican, I don't take notice to a fighter til I see him put through a challenge and see him concur it in a convincing way
