Yuriorkis gamboa dropping down to 126

He can make 126, he's made 128 with no problem, it's probably just for a few fights. His physical strength and speed is way too much for anybody at 126 and he ought to be favoured heavily over any of them, for him to beat two titlists then move back up would gain exposure, not a bad move at all, assuming that weight is not an issue, which it shouldn't be.

 

Not happy about this move myself

 

Gamboa vs The ghost would be good to see or Litzua as a step up fight

 

hopfully it dosent effect his stamina. if hes mostly muscle a drop in weight might weaken him a bit ,if he dosent take his time doing it. but at 126 hes gonna be a dominant presence might even be faster

 

bad move. all the music plays at 130 and he looked real fit/healthy at 130.

dont get this move. if its true that is.......

 

good move

 

Can't see him being there long, and there ain't much for him to worry about. Not a big deal.

He was pushing Jimenez around like a ragdoll, he'll be way too much for featherweights

 

I'm honestly not too sure. He got down to 130 and blew up to 140lbs. What really SHOCKED me was that he blew up 10 lbs of what looked to be lean muscle. He didn't look bloaded or flabby, how anyone puts on 10lbs in a day and STILL has massive definition is impressive. I mean its easy to gain 10lbs in a day, but usually your definition takes a huge ****

That being said, I'm not too sure how losing another 4lbs is going to do for him. If he doesn't have a problem with 126lbs he is going to slaughter people.

BTW any links to this? I haven't heard any news on this at all.

 

That's a Chicken move. He found out his chin is not world class at 130 so he's moving down. But he has a Big problem there. I don't think he can stand Linares's Power.

 

Nice I want him closer to Juanma

 

mira nene, slow your ROLL! lol

 

just creating expectations -- aunque gamboa es un mamao

 

Los dos estan agallao lol

 

He's fine at 126. He could probably make 122 if he tried hard. Don't forget, this guy fought at 112 until two years ago. Also, he's been ranked by the ABCs at 126 and not 130 all along. Because the Rojas fight is technically a contender eliminator, he needs to make weight for his rating to spike.
