    Me too. As long as we're talking about the very best version of Mayweather, then it's not even a question.

    Mayweather is very slick but Gamboa is more aggresive so its the more entertaining style

    Let's see how Gamboa's style develops as he fights tougher competition.

    Floyd Mayweather Jr. with one hand tied behind his back...
    Wearing an eye patch, and feet bound together still beat's Gamboa EASY.

    everytime you watch gamboa, you expect a 1st round knockout, he usually delivers... you gotta give the guy credit for that.

    The thread starter has to realize that when you put a boxer1 vs. boxer2 in a thread title, people automatically write about the possible outcome.

    Floyd is better to watch as he is a top fighter, Gamboa is not.

    As I said before, this is more of a comparison in styles as opposed to who would win a head to head fight. Seeing as Gamboa is so early in his fight career and no one knows exactly to what heights he will progress, it's really not a fair comparison.

    However, let's compare how quickly Gamboa is coming along in his pro career to let's say, Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    Gamboa's 10th fight was against a very respectable Darling Jimenez (23-2-2) for a WBC International Title

    His 11th fight against a good fighter in Al Seeger (27-3) for a WBO NABO title

    His 12th fight was headling BAD against a very durable (25-0) Marcos Ramirez.

    The combined records of the competition he's faced up to this point is 221 wins and 34 losses with 8 draws.

    Now let's look at Floyd:

    In his 10th fight Floyd went up against respectable Louie Leija (18-3-1)

    His 11th fight was against Felipe Garcia (20-18-1)

    His 12th fight was against Angelo Nunez (14-11-3)

    The combined records of his competition up to that point was 112 wins and 84 losses with 10 draws.

    Based on these numbers I would have to argue that Gamboa is well ahead of where Floyd was at this point in his young career. What he will end up becoming we have yet to see, while we all know what became of Floyd. And for the record, I prefer an action fight, although I do believe that PBF vs Corrales was one of the best performances in the ring I've ever seen.
