De leon fought a guy who should have not been in the ring with him ,Gamboa knows how to place his punches very well this fight wouldn't go past 4.
escalante is just as good as salido....if not for steroids salido wouldn't of gotten to where he's at :rofl
Don't complain, freddy-wak was very generous. He even thought of "Ponce KO Gamboa" as the only choice, but he decided to give others a chance.
I think Daniel has worked his way back into the discussion of the top guys at 126. He has improved his D a bit and is more patient. In the Lopez fight he went straight for the kill and got caught with a game Lopez. I would love to see him against any of the top 4. Gamboa is an explosive, and very fast fighter. But he is venerable to get hit. I just hope Ponce gets an opportunity to get another shot.
Somebody is getting knocked the **** out. I'll choose De Leon by K.O. (It's a 50/50 fight, IMO based on Gamboa's "chin")
This ppl still think gamboa has a weak chin, I bet all my salary none of this ppl talking about Gamboas chin, has never lace a pair of gloves, not even in the neiborghood, has any of you paid any attention to d knockdowns? Really attention, not getting an orgasm because the kid visited the mat, even when he is being hit flush he has not blink, if you are basing your opinions on that, you guys don't $hit, and yes PDL has faced better competition than YG, and he has loss. Actually is another Cuban boxer that would make PDL look silly too, Rigondeaux. Just for the record, Caballero, Juanma and PeƱalosa are the only fighters that we know, hardcore fans and he loss to two of them, because you can't count Tejedor, he was way past his prime when he fought PDL, coming off 5 straight loses.
You are already wrong. :bbb It's not that Gamboa's chin is suspect, Which it is... But also has alot to do with De Leon's abnormal power @ that weight class. mixed in w/Gamboa's lowered hands & balance problem...ect 50/50
In a way I love what is happening here, Gamboa has a long list of possibles opponents, that means that ppl want to c him fight, since his debut alots of fans had been predicting his demise, so far he has won all of his fights without a doubt (Juanma vs. Mtagwa should had been stopped, the kid was getting pummeled) PDL (koed by JM and Dec. L to Caballeros) and Caballeros has being Koed and loss some fights. Gamboa could get caught by any fighter, after all that is what they trying to do, and in boxing anything can happen, specially in the upper echelons of game, but until then the only thing you r doing is dream and speculate. Ya vienen llegando, like Willy Chirino said.
:good Good post.. But aren't we all "Dreaming & Speculating" in the end? After all, nobody really knows what happens until the leather flies. (we all assume here bro)
Yes we are, but some ppl here don't base their opinions on facts, they don't c the whole pitcure, you can have your opinion and you want your favorite fighter to win, I know I do too, but make some sense, some ppl here just are talking crap with no knowledge at all.
hard to say at the moment. Ponce looked good but he's still SLOW! Gam's speed would be a major problem plus the fact that he's got power as well. Ponce....if he has made adjustments defensively that seemed apparent last night could capitolize on the MAJOR mistakes Gam still shows in his game. Toss up...I'm leaning towards Gam at the moment simply b/c Ponce looked 5 levels slower than Gam.
