lol that fight put me to sleep aswell, but the crowd noise for when crawford came out woke me upfukk Man missed the whole fight again cause that korabov/Jose fight put me to sleep.. I knew Gamboa would get whooped

Because the other arena was probably offering more money...lol that fight put me to sleep aswell, but the crowd noise for when crawford came out woke me up
i really dont understand how arum can make him take a paycut to fight in his hometown when he sold out a 10k arena.
version, you meant?that will be his definition of paq vs floyd..in arum la la land.



we saw signs of this coming for years now always getting caught when he goes on attack time after time
you would think his team would fix that problem by now
he has no head movement when hes on offense throwing 3-5 punch combos chin straight up in the air
he needs a new trainer the talent is there speed, power and heart just needs fine tuning both guys beat broner tho 
. How you going to be fast tracked to a Manny fight and then want to avoid a guy like Gamboa. 
Seeing Gamboa fight early, he would have given Mikey a lot of problems. I agree in that the advantages Crawford had over Gamboa, Mikey doesn't.
Mikey isn't naturally as big or has the speed of Crawford. Mikey has good footwork and technique, but he can be low output, naturally doesn't look to carry as much weight, and isn't very fast. Mikey-Gamboa would start off much the same way with Gamboa winning all the early rounds and Mikey having to real him in. Don't think he could do it nearly as easily. Would be a good scrap and still want to see it.
Gamboa likes to admire his work and gets lazy with his defense, nullifying a lot of his skill advantages. When I watch him I just want to yell at him to stay focused for the whole round.
Great fight and deserves to be a top FOTY candidate with Molina-Matthysse.

Of course, after the fight I see the obligatory "he can beat Broner" statements on here
Listen, Crawford won the fight but Gamboa aint no AB my nikkas.
AB is bigger than Gamboa, stronger, just as fast hands and punching accuracy. Plus he has better defense especially against a person who doesn't have fast hands or elite power like Crawford
Gamboa didn't look all that good in his last fight against a member of Los Boricas, plus he hadnt fought in a year, so him losing to Crawford isnt THAT huge of a deal. Still a good victory though.
Let's not forget that Crawford got rocked and was on wobbly legs as well in this fight, so its not like he has an iron chin either
It would be a good fight, but Crawford isnt a clear favorite over Broner like yall talking bout. I think it would be a toss up fight, due to Crawfords nice combination punching/ability to make adjustments and ring IQ/punch placement, but of course I think Broner takes it.


they are virtually the same size....somewhere between 135-140 comfortable weight. AB is no WW. Even if his hands were just as fast as Gamboa, he doesnt use them the same way. He stands flat footed. Its a good fight, but based on skill and style Crawford is just more solid all around.Since Provodnikov does not want the rematch, Crawford is the current WBO champion, and he's moving up to 140 in his next fight. Add to the fact they're both Top Rank/HBO fighters.......
We could be seeing Crawford/Algeri next![]()
