They're exciting and I hope they can fix their defense up a little bit, they'd both be good for boxing.
Gamboa has been floored a few times... It's cuz he fights like an arogant asshole. Kind of like Vic. But I like him. Your analysis is on point though. He's still young and will be moved slowly. luckily he has the skill to turn the amatuer mistakes around.

Kirkland is a fireplug. He fought Vera well. The punches Vera landed were pretty few and far between. Most guys(even close to elite) would have been floored by some of the great shots James was putting on him. Vera is just a rugged dude. With a little more pollishing and exp he'll be something special.
