    I wasn't being a prick. I've been off the boards for a few weeks (although I'm sure nobody noticed) and haven't been to keen on some of the new slang. I thought it meant steroids but wasn't totally sure.

    that's ok. i picked up the term here (never heard it elsewhere). so the fact you've been away fully accounts for your not knowing the term.

    now stay onboard.

    I still give Marquez the edge. Fucking JuanMa didn't impress me one iota. Only reason Juan might win is because of how little Rafael has left after those fights with Vazquez.

    Completely agree. Its not like Marquez is not going to land and I have little faith that Lopez's chin would hold up. Marquez is a real live spoiler here. You are right in that the only question remaining is what he has left in the tank but he sure looked the much fresher of the two in his last fight with Israel.

    Styles make fights. Lopez gets hit for sure but Gamboa's flaws are more glaring IMO. I think he would walk into Juanma's right hook with the way he just rushes in and gets off balance and out of position while doing so. Typical Cuban amatuer IMO.

    I would take either Lopez or Chris John to beat Gamboa. Maybe Caballero too.
