    is that the reason why juanma has been avoiding him?
    gamboa doesnt seem to have a problem against someone with 2 belts

    Cuba has been producing boxing champs way before comunism...same as baseball
    They may not get so many olympics medals,wich i dont care but athletes like chocolate,gavilan,napoles,gamboa,casamayor will keep coming

    The way Gamboa fought in his last fight, very smart and mature in that ring. Any opponent should fear this man at this moment.

    the reason is because unlike in PR where everybody has the chance to prove themself as a pro,in Cuba they have to wait for the oportunity to defect and leave behind their love ones...its why u never saw the kinds of
    Horta,Aldama,Kindelan,Stevenson,Savon,Millian,Balado,Martinez, and so many others.
    think harder

    the reason Cuba dominates is because pro box is not allowed -imagine is pro box wasnt allowed in Mexico and morales,barrera,marquez,chavez,sanchez and company were olympics! how many medals would have mexico won..same with PR.
    u r smarter than that

    I'm wondering why it's Gamboa the one facing Caballero and not Juanma? Juanma wtf this guy has been calling you out for a ****ing while now
    and you just let Gamboa take care of him for you? :-(

    Gamboa throws leather but he's reckless. Look what Juanma did to Ponce De Leon.

    Juanma is more compact, i like Juanma by KO in this fight.

    Boxing is a bussiness is not about calling people out is about makig money also and you dont understand that promoters look for fights to make money. Caballero was on the plans for the beggining of this year but he was asking too much money so arum say the hell with him. Caballero is a good champion but he doesnt sell, he got stripped of his IBF title because not one promoter bid on his mandatory fight. Not even his own promoters try to put his mandatory defense on because it wasnt financialy viable. Juanma is a profesional he'll fight anybody but he has a plan also to make as much money as he can before he retires. If you want to belive that he's scare go ahead. And juanma is fighting bernabe concepcion the same day gamboa is fighting celestino.

    Juanma was the first to out price himself out of a fight with Caballero when he requested a million dollars to fight Caballero. And don't try to dare say that Caballero is not a big name and doesn't sell because nobody knows who Mtagwa, Lontchi or Penalosa is, and Juanma still chose to fight those 3 over Caballero.

    :good:good:good

    after beating ponce de leon,juanma has been very overprotected,a fight against caballero would sell better than against any of the one u just mentioned
    and let me tell u that i always like juanma,actually after beating ponce de leon became one of my favs...and still dont think he is afraid,its just Arum doing the same he did with de la hoya(paid off pretty good,have to admit)choosing the right opponent at the right time.
    but a fight against caballero at 122 while both were holding belts make sense and would sell in every boxing book.
