Very true! The more I thought about it talent or no, Gamboa would be in serious danger vs Rios. Imagine the type of power Gamboa would have to use to hold Rios back much less stop him.

I think Gamboa takes a smaller fight then fights the winner of Salido-JuanMa II

Rios on the other hand will be hard pressed to find anyone for a big fight without moving up. I would love to see him fight Robert Guerrero, I think that's a good style matchup. I think JMM would be a solid fight for Rios, but JMM may want something bigger.
I think your right on Gamboa. To me he's the one with options here. Even if he struggles with weight he can go up one first. I think this has been Rios clamoring for a 'name' grab all along. Guerrero is moving up vs a dangerous undefeated Aybin for a 140 trinket next out. I don't get why Rios and camp are hesitating to do the obvious. His body isn't waiting around and with the way he gives his face up and sponges shots he's playing with fire by coming in drained and half steam at 135.
