I've watched that fight numerous times, and I am impressed with both fighters, Alexey is probably the best amateur, and was the best amateur in the Olympics. I felt Gamboa won it, and thats the fight that really makes me think, if Gamboa does have a great beard which he hasn't exactly shown, but if he does who can beat him? Even though his style is so reckless and forward, he is so slick, throws so many punches so quickly that I can't see anybody getting the upper hand on him, unless they can hurt him, and I also don't see him getting outboxed ala Hamed, he's a different level of unorthodox fighter, for all his short comings, he is amazingly accurate, for his style he avoids more punches than anyone else would be able to, and he hits hard.
