    Juanma will do the same if they sign to fight. Gamboa couldnt take those shots that Juanma took last night.

    Mark my words.

    Rafa is one of my favorite fighters ever. That being said, he hasn't been a monster puncher since he was at 118. He still has very good power, but at 118 he was arguably the best puncher in boxing. I hate to see him lose, but I don't think he has the size or power to dominate at featherweight. I hope he gets some great paydays at the tail end of his career, but his best is behind him. We'll always have those epic (and underrated) wins over Johnson and Austin (who were both regarded as P4P fighters when he beat them).

    Lopez will knock Gamboa out cold. Marquez would also. Marquez came up two weight divisions and almost knocked Lopez out, probably would have if the ref had not stopped the fight to take a point away from Lopez.

    honestly rafa didnt really take those shots he looked out on his feet at the end of the round and didnt come out for the next one the shoulder injury wasnt the only reason he couldnt continue

    i think juanma gets dropped by gamboa, gamboa's will get to him 1st if they exchange. too fast to much power/.....they both have suspect chins which is why, gamboa speed will make the difference.

    Damn straight. Gamboas's shaky whiskers would get shattered badly by either guy. His questionable chin is gonna be exposed soon!

    I love Rafa to death but at this stage of his career, i highly doubt that he beats Gamboa.

    Rafa is way past it, if he looked slow against Juanma imagine how slow hes going to look against Gamboa.

    He has a punchers chance but thats about it .
