    Hamed via Ko because he has a better chin than Gamboa and has more power.

    Hamed to knock him out. Gamboa is too easy to hit, too wide open coming in.

    Hamed is a bad match-up for Gamboa. Almost certainly a Naz stoppage.

    Hameds power put people in the hospital, when he landed (which he would) Gamboa would stay down.

    I chose Gamboa KO... Lotta people very high on Hamed, or is GAMBOA not as good as thought he is?


    but 2 awkward fighters would be a good fight.

    Both guys down in the fight, but I slightly favor Hamed to win the war.

    Hamed was defeated because Barrera has good jab and fundamentals. Gamboa is a little awkward but Hamed is proven. Hamed by KO or UD.

    welll Naz has the better resume so if Gamboa were to retire today id rate Naz higher.

    Ability wise its pretty close,,,Gamboa better technique and probably even faster,but Naz awkardness and flaws were also his strength along with his power...Its too early to say whoss the biggest puncher they both hit very hard.,,Since Gamboa hasnt fought any real top notcch guys except for Salido... Solis looked bad,Barros is solid. ROjas was a past it paper champ. The rest gatekeepers or just tough journeyman

    Naz lost to his best opponent and beat a few past it former champs,.. BUt lot of them were world class or still dangeruous,,,

    Kelly
    Soto
    Medina
    Ingle
    Bungu
    Mccullough
    Augie
    Robinson

    were still pretty good no elites but all world class top guys in the division at the time.

    Johnson faded and past it
    Vasquez washed up


    Gamboas best wins
    Salido THis was a good win over dangerous and still underrated fighter.
    Barros Solid fighter but run of the mill paper champ IMO
    Solis Good name but he looked like **** against Gamboa

    is a slim list.. I think hes the real deal but he needs better opposition to be able to tell if he would have beat Naz, or can become great. Ponce Deleon has power and is a good name but prettyslow for a Fw and hes made for Gamboa., That fight wont prove much..Gamboa needs better comp, hes gonna have to either wait for smaller elite guys to move up like RIgo,Nonito or jump to LW,.. JL is weak.. DOnt hold your breath on John,who only feast on 2nd rate no names.


    Goinzales dangerous and a good fighter but his chin is weak
    Lopez would be a huge underdog his stock went down.
    Caballero to weak for Gamboa and overrated


    I think Mikey Garcia is the only Fw with a decent shot at Gamboa,,, But he needs to tighten up his defense if he fights Gamboa... Too bad there aint no Manny,Barreras,Marquez,Mprales,Hameds around to find out how good or great Gamboa is.
