I don't think Gamboa is going to be back on primetime again. If they were looking for an impressive performance to sell a Lomachenko fight he didn't provide it.
And I believe Lemieux when he says he wants GGG again. Isn't it great when fighters want to challenge themselves? I'd like to see Canelo-Lemieux. Personally I think that's a more competitive fight than Canelo-GGG.

To be fair to Alvarado; the guy is tough as nails. He's never really been stopped before and has fought a number of contenders. Gamboa got in some rounds and shook of some rust. I think that was the idea of this fight. He didn't impress but it might give him added time to squeeze in another fight or 2 of this level before approaching the elite guys. I also feel he should be back at feather but don't think he can make that weight comfortably anymore unfortunately.
Canelo has to fight somebody decent assuming he beats Chavez but Lemieux is promoted by Oscar so I can't see Lemieux-Canelo being made somehow. I think Gamboa went the way of a lot of Cubans and lst all motivation once he made some money. He's signed some terrible promotional deals with a succession of rappers who are finding it tough to match the fighters they've signed. I'm not sure he'll get many more chances on primetime. Maybe if he's lucky enough that his promoters can match him with some decent off-TV opponents and he actually wins the fights impressively he'll get another HBO undercard slot but HBO aren't spending like they used to and their shows are few and far between now.
