Will the Big Names dudge/avoid GAMBOA ?

Its a possability, definitely at this stage of his career, as at the moment he is a high risk/low reward (money) fight.

It certainly wouldnt be the first, or the last time it has happened

 

I think you are doing a nice job as an alias Jaycuban but it is clear to me that you are writing typos on purpose now. That plus you have never said a word of spanish before and you've ignored me(a fellow cuban) repeatedly. So therefore, I think you are an alias with a bias for cuban fighters. You've done a good job until now my friend.

 

ok esta bien brode disculpa que te dije eso. me llamo yamil alquizar y vine de cuba para miami hace 13 años.

So yeah I take that back everyone, nothing to see here move along lol.

 

Were do you live yourself? Havana? And were did your brother boxed?

As your brother and/or stepfather if they know Prof. Jesus Dominguez from Havanna:good

 

Oye mi linda bandera Cubana! Jeje!

I am just Dutch but I love Cuba and proud I trained there.:good

 

Gamboa is fighting former 126 titlist Freddie Norwood next.

 

Nice to see him stepping it up once again...and huge.

Damn, I must tell you this: I know it will be televised on SHO; at least a few clips if not the whole fight...as you might remember I told you that Öner was in negotiations with SHO way back in mid October about it...

 

Btw, I'm trying to get a scoop on how much rounds this fight will be scheduled for by tomorrow...

 

Man, this is crazy... Gamboa has so much talent and he is jumping up in classes like it's just a f.king game. If Öner somehow can work out a fair deal with Showtime, in 2 years, Gamboa will bring down HBO...

Imagine that this guy from Cuba (and not from the USA or Mexico), living and training in Germany, not speaking any english or german can be a superstar, a big TV/fan draw both Stateside and in Europe and maybe a world champion in LESS THAN A YEAR! I can't remember ANYONE who did this. Of course, someone like Oscar with an instant TV deal... but this is different. It is the WORLD CLASS SKILL that gets the attention, not the nationality or popularity.

If Gamboa works harder than the rumors say, he can be THE ONE. But nothing is written in the stone... Cuban boxers usually give very wavering performances. Look at Gomez, a guy who looked to take Lewis' position after cleaning up the 190lbs class (this wasn't just a dream if you watched carefully his carreer) or Casamayor. I'm sorry to hear, but a source told me that both Gamboa and the more lazy Solis like the bottle... I hope it's not true... but Barthelemy have already left Germany and training in Florida. He left without his manager's permission as far as I know... it's very hard to manage them with prizefighting's perfectionism... But I hope for the sake of this sport that Öner, German and US televisions will somehow find the way to keep all 3 of them in the gym...

 

Barthelemy left with Öner's permission...imo Öner was not amused at first sight but saw that Barthelemy would do much better in another enviroment.
