    It's close, but I'll lean towards Gamboa's combinations. I'm probably I little bias on the subject, as I'm really becoming a big Gamboa fan though.

    Khan is faster, he throws punches in combination. But Gamboa has much better punch selection and defense.

    Gamboa by miles, please stop with the Khan ****, he's going to very limited places at best.

    I read somewhere that on the undercard for Pacquiao/Diaz, Amir Khan was fighting, but to an opponent TBD.. So why not throw Gamboa in against Khan? Not sure they would though with Gamboa being a SFW, but he could move up..

    you can watch the two fight and after post here what you think...its gamboa by a mile, the reason why gamboa started late because of his long amateur career which right now he is more than just a prospect. With such skill you know what he'll accomplish

    Amir Khan has a glass jaw.. He has some skill but there is a reason they're putting him in with a bunch of feather fists! And he has the nerve to say he wants to fight Nate Campbell? HA! Campbell will permanently shatter that glass jaw!
