Litzau vs Gamboa?! WTF!

Idc I like the fight only because I have some type of hope for Litzau. Hope he does good for himself.

WAR LITZAU!!!

 

THIS. LOL.


but at the same time with how gamboa has been, next thing you know, litzau takes him 12 rounds

 

After ducking Caballero for so long now he goes after the guy who lucked out vs him

Larry Merchant thumbs down to Gamboa

 

Litzau will send that Cuban fraud back to making cigars...

 

Ouch! but HELL YEAH!! :yep

 

OK I prefer Gamboa vs Solis, but why a step down? Didn't Litzau just beat the "most avoided fighter between 122-lbs? He earned to be in this position, it was not hand it to him on a silver plate.

 

:good My man

 

Litzau wins this one.

 

I said a step down from Salido, not Solis - because that's what it is.

Heading in to their fight, Salido had more of a chance to beat Gamboa than Litzau does (barring a very lucky KO shot; I really don't give Jason much more than that slim puncher's chance here with the huge lack of athleticism and how relatively one-dimensional Litzau's game is). That's what taking a step down means - you face an opponent with less of a chance to beat you than your last one.

That isn't to say Litzau doesn't deserve a big fight for upsetting Caballero. It's just that given his chin and the speed difference, he's much less of a threat to Gamboa than the tough and awkward Salido was (even though Litzau has a punch and Gamboa isn't terribly difficult to drop). Hence - a big step down.
