    Default Perhaps the next legitimate p4p heir... Yuriorkis Gamboa

    This cuban is nuts. He has crazy speed(closest thing to RJJ and PBF that I've seen of the prospects) He has really good power, combinations, reflexes, he has great technique... The only problem I have with him is he tends to be a little flat footed in order to get more power, and if he wasn't so flat footed I think he would get hit even less, but this guy is insane... I haven't seen a prospect like him yet.

    He seems like the best out there.

    Could be a bit more cautious defensively but he probably will be when the competition gets better. Probably won't be able to jump so many weightclasses like Floyd did since he's so short but he looks like a can't miss type.

    He definently had an easy night. I like his style, he's going to be someone important.


    Thank God he defected...we've been missing the Kid Galivan's that Cuba has kept toiling in the amateurs! Savon and Stevenson would have been impressive to see in the pros and we were denied that opportunity.


    O. Solis seems to be a big time fighter in the future too....if he can keep his weight down

    They have him on the fast track also. In April he is fighting again, that will be 3 fights in 2008 already!!

    I think they are looking to have him make a big bang in 2009.

    From what little i've seen and heard about this guy.......he is a bad dude !!! His little flaws will go away the better guys he fights hopefully. Right now he just basically doesn't even use or need defense very much against the guys he's been in with.
