Even tough a lot of people are picking Gamboa to win with ease(including the KO, like me) let's take a look at the judges just in case if the fight goes the distance and Gamboa doesn't look not as good as he normally does.

Referee: Joe Cortez(Puerto Rico) -Ref since 1980. -This year his notable fight is Maidana-Cayo. Your thoughts. And who wins a close one, based on the thread.:good
I'm not caring that much too, but I make these threads since May(I came in April to the forum). Thanks, but at least read the thread.
I'm going with Salido to pull the upset. He's def the best fighter Gamboa has fought and could def give Gamboa problems if Gamboa thinks he's just gonna win this fight on his talent and not skill.
Salido is more experienced than any fighter Gamboa has faced and has more pop than Darling Jimenez who droped Gamoa. His last notable loss was to JMM. I like Gamboa but this has upset written all over it if Gamboa thinks like you guys.
