    The best prospect out there, i have never been this impressed with a prospect. He has impressed me more than Andre Ward and many others. Yes, the highly touted Andre Ward who was both hurt badly and dropped all within his first 3-4 fights. Not to mention that they are moving Gamboa at a astonishing rate, they obviously recognize his immense talent. What surprised me was not only his speed and power, but his confidence, athleticism, reflexes, agression, and upper body movement

    Gamboa is a freak.

    I'd like to see him KO Linares and Valero before the year is over.

    He might very well be the best thing the world has seen since the abolishment of slavery.

    He might have to fight Gamboa as the Cuban might very well be his mandatory by July...

    Really? Didn't know that. He's moving up the ladder pretty damn fast then. Actually, I've never seen a prospect move through the ranks as quickly as Gamboa. But given his talent and ability, he's more than ready.

    How so?

    Linares doesn't have the ability to keep Gamboa off of him. With Gamboa's speed and reflexes, he be getting inside in no time, firing off combinations to the body and the head before Linares can do anything. Honestly, I think this one ends quick. I give it 3/4 rounds.

    Considering his background it isn't too much of a surprise.
