    the fighter who will beat Gamboa is the fighter who can keep him at bay on the outside behind a quick jab and tie him up inside and move him around until about round 5 or 6 where he gets a little slower and more hittable. Anyone who goes gun-ho with no defense like Caballero does is begging to get decked.

    I think Chris John poses the biggest challenge to Gamboa.

    NOBODY. That hasn't stopped the unprecedented amount of recent hype around him despite the fact that he's shown highly suspect defense and highly questionable punch resistance. The excitable would-be fanboys already have him beating Lopez, John, and just about anybody else at or near 126. He doesn't even have a halfway decent win. God forbid he actually beats somebody in the top 15. He'll be an ATG.

    Gamboa is not going to win any decision over Cab. I believe Cab will beat him on points. Gamboa has a better chance at beating or KOing Lopez who is there to be hit. I think Gamboa has too much fire power, but then I don't know what will happen if Lopez connects. Gamboa has been hurt slightly in the past.
