    Is his bandwagon still rolling?

    It seems the hype has kinda subsided since last year.

    His opponent is Jose Rojas, who lost a UD to Chris John two years ago.

    And another fighter with a Tyson-inspired nickname on the undercard..."Mini-Tyson" Selcuk Aydin against a familiar face...Said Ouali.

    REED's Attending a Card in Wichita Fallas, Tx. on Saturday & there's an Undercarder Named Jason "Micro Tyson" McClure Fighting...The WORST Part is, the Motherfucker is 1-5 w/4 KO LOSSES....Maybe he Should Call Himself "Tysoned" Instead...

    As for Gamboa, his Bandwagon is Still CAUTIOUSLY Rolling Along...Gamboa's ALREADY PROVEN to REED that his Speed & Power R of SPECIAL Quality...The KNOCKDOWNS R a Definite Concern, Even Though Gamboa's Never Really Looked HURT on Any of them...

    Can Rojas PUNCH @ All???...

    Aydin is an interesting fighter, simply because he could soon become Berto´s next mandatory, and he has fast hands and power.

    Do you think Gamboa will get dropped yet again?

    He did knock out Celestino Caballero some years ago.

    Yep...

    The MULTITUDE of Knockdowns HAVEN'T Made Gamboa ADDRESS his Defensive Flaws as of Yet, so there's No Reason NOT to Expect him to Get Dropped AGAIN...

    Gamboa gets dropped in round 1 or 2, and stopps him before the 4th round.
    I almost guarantee it.

    If Gamboa doesn't get dropped it takes him about 6-8 rounds to get the KO.

    Gamboa reminds me a little of a young Trinidad that when he got knocked down, you KNEW that next will be the end for the opponent!:lol: Rojas has six defeats. This is a WBA 'put-a-guy-from-Venezuela-in-a-title-fight-regardles-if-we-know-will-be-defeated" kind of scenario that will make certain Gamboa wins easy.

    It's strange that he did because Rojas really sucks, imo.
