~ Martinez-Bunema, Angulo-Tsurkan & Gamboa-Ramirez ~ Let's talk here!! Pics. & Vids.

[No Contest]

Nice uppercut, Ramirez was just wide open , but he actually caught Gamboa a few times.

[LEGION]

Ramirez is going ot have nightmares over this one.


Oh well, tick tock tick tock; it won't be long till Gamboa gets sparked out.

[ICB]

Gamboa is too wild and not technical enough in his approach, plus he has a suspect chin. Abner Mares and Roman Gonzalez are the new stars not Gamboa, until he improves technically and defensively.

you can't seriously say Gamboa isn't a star. With his amatuer pedigree and scintillating fight style he will be a much bigger draw than both Mares and Gonzalez.

Yes he's vulnurable, and yes he could well get sparked soon but his speed, power and all action style will mean he's a ppv draw a couple years from now.

The kid is a star in the making whether he loses on the way or up not.

I want to see James Kirkland/Sergio Martinez. Don't know who I'd root for

Kirkland will smoke him, that kid is an animal. Anyone who trains with Anne Wolfe is going to be mean as fuck.

I want Kirkland and Angulo, that would be a collision.

Kirkland with either is a great fight. Anne Wolfe scares the crap out of me

Nice one,I think Angulo takes him out.Showed nice arsenal over last two fights with good tempo,yes,tonight he was in against a human speed bag though.Kirkland can cave in walls but Angulo just looks well rounded.

2007 was great, this year has been as good if not better; and no telling what next year will look like

Martinez vs Margarito 2

Have you seen the first fight Ice? All I know is what it says on boxrec, Margarito KO 7.

I'm a bit suprised by all the hyperbole regarding Martinez tonight though. I mean before tonight he simply was never mentioned by anyone, I've never even seen a thread about him, and certainly Kellerman and Lampley etc have never talked about him at all.

Then he beats up on Bunema, a journeyman fighter who got lucky last time out and all of a sudden he's too much for anyone at 154 and should be looking at a rematch with Margarito

I just don't buy this. No matter how good he looked tonight (against a nobody) what has he done to merit a mega fight with Margarito? It's just completely insane, Margarito is king at 147 and looks for huge fights with Mayweather, Cotto and Williams, Martinez has never even beat a name opponent and all of a sudden they are throwing his name in the mix.

Faster than Shane Mosely and Roy Jones, seriously wtf were Lampley and Kellerman on tonight?

He looked impressive against a completely overmatched opponent. That is all, no more no less.


In terms of significance I'd say it ranks similar to Lucian Bute's win over Berrio, afight that catapaults him amongst the top of his division but certainly doens't get cries of how Calzaghe, Pavlik, Dawson and Hopkins must all face him and that he's the avoided man.

I just don't understand why everyone went so crazy for Martinez tonight.

[boozeboxer]

gamboa looked sharp in their tonight and def. a star. In his 11th fight he is headlining HBO.

I meant who i think will have a successful Professional career Bilbo, i should have worded it better but thats what i meant.

Ah I think Gamboa will do well though, he has definite weaknesses but I imagine they will carefully match him from now on.

I'll say this much though, Gamboa is a guy I want to see fight. Not since Floyd, Hamed and Jones Jr has there been such a technically exciting fighter imo.

I hope his chin holds up becuase he has the skills to be a legend.

Offensively he's a joy to watch

[Spicoli]

I think his over confidence may be his downfall,he is explosive and powerful but way to young in over reliance on power and not honing all around skills with these showcase fights that he'll need when some do not crumble in front of him.Should be fun
