Thread: HBO looking at Gamboa/Jorge Barrios and Kirkland/Joel Julio

its on boxingscene, nothing concrete yet, maybe in October.

Make it happen, sounds good to me. No way Kirkland/Julio goes the distance.

Good match ups. 'Hope it happens soon.

I like both barrios and gomboa.. But for me.. Barrios is not a good fight for gamboa after just ten fights.. No way

Barrios has only fought once in like 1.5 years or so. He's had bad eye injuries. It's smart match making. As for Julio and Kirkland,Kirkland beats him up bad. Fights at far too high a pace for the somtimes pedestrian Julio. Would be awesome to watch though!

Yeah probably but Kirkland with his style is flat out begging to be knocked out early with a counter right hand.

Dm right Ouma, I agree,which is why I think Angulo would hand him his ass JUulio would hurt him and maybe drop him but I see Kirkland winning.

Barrios TKO
Julio TKO

I think I'm going with El Gamo on this one, Barrios has been so inactive, and if this is at 130 have to wonder about Barrios weight issues
