Roberto Garcia, "Gamboa won't last 12 rounds"!

Interesting..............Garcia sounds very confident. Gamboa has been knocked down by much lesser opponents................

 

War!

 

Gambia is a mature fighter now, more patient and there's no doubt in my mind that Yuriorkis' power combined with his blazing handspeed and quick feet he will force a referee stoppage, Rios gets hit far to easily, Bam Bam has very good power and a relentless style but that Margarito type style only gets you so far. see Pacquiao vs Margarito...

Gambia TKO 10, too fast, too powerful, too slick!

 

this will be a fight of the year candidate.

cant wait!

 

Two things wrong. I think Rios is a much harder puncher against Gamboa, than Margo was against Pacquiao.

Rios is also a much faster fighter than Margarito.

AND

Pacquiao's chin and will is MUCH greater than Gamboa. And Pacquiao ate plenty of punches himself. He was a hurt a few times as well.

Gamboa won't share the same success. It'll be the Acosta vs. Rios fight in much more dramatic fashion.

 

First 3 rounds will decide the winner. Either Gamboa stuns Rios with his speed and power and makes Rios slow down or Gamboa realizes that going up 2 weights wasn't a good idea after all and fires his manager.

Can't wait. This is better than Floyd-Pacquaio IMO.

 

I agree, the two fighters have very entertaining styles, two great offensive fighters, a Pac vs May would be a great disappointment, as far as the fight living up to expectations, I doubt it would even turn aout to be a fight of the year candidate, let alone fight of the year... or Greatest Fight of All Time":rofl

I'me very exited for the Gamboa-Rios fight, the Molina-Kirkland fight! and the Salido-Lopez rematch! the Bradley and Cotto fights are interesting as well, but the 1st three I won't miss. another Great year for Boxing.

 

i don't see it being foty personally due to i can't see much back and forth action.

I see a one sided win.

I'm just not sure in which direction yet haha.

 

I absolutely agree with this....but Gamboa does get a little sloppy at times, and has be known to get tagged and dropped by lesser fighters. If he get too sloppy versus Rios....LIGHTS-OUT!!!!

 

I agree with this statement. Rios is going to put an asswhooping on Gamboa.

 

Didn't realize Molina-Kirkland is on! This is definitely the best year for boxing so far, knock wood.

 

I'm pretty sure Rios will turn up in better shape this time round. He'll be back in California where he'll drop weight slightly easier, and with a conditioning coach this time round, I doubt they'll be making the same mistakes they did against Murray. Very important, because his size, strength and relentlessness, are the only advantages he holds over Gamboa. He'll need all three, at the very least, to be at their best to avoid defeat to a guy that's two divisions smaller than him.

 

I think BamBam wins this late

 

Who's training gamboa, is it steward?
