im tired of these non competitive fights he's having breh..klitschko or another high level heavy contender

Well he's only got a hand full of fights, going from Skelton to Klitschko is an unnecessary jump logically don't you think? Price's plan is to clean out British heavyweight contenders then move on to a Klitschko, hence why he's calling out Chisora and Fury, everyone else has been beaten

I don't know if he's called out Haye :guilty:

who yall got if Broner and Gamboa ever face off?

Broner as of right now based off nothing except he's naturally the bigger man so he could probably absorb more punishment than Gamboa if they met at 135. It's hard to say since I've only seen YG at 126. They're evenly matched IMO cept I think Broner has better defense which leads back to who could absorb who's shots better when hit.

I'm curious as to how Gamboa is gonna look at 130...

The only two fighters left at 135 are

Ricky Burns...talented, fast but not enough power to keep Broner honest, Broner stops him

Miguel Vazquez...same deal as Burns, only slightly better since he'd have a better shot at surviving 12 rounds due to his chin and running skills

Gamboa...shytty defense. It's his Achilles heel, he relies on athleticism and whirlwind offense but drops his hands too much and gets wild throwing flurries. He's had 4 official knock downs on his record, 2 are legitimate, 1 was a push, another was an elbow. Nonetheless he still holds the best shot at beating Broner out of any fighter from 135-126.


Either way, Broner has no real competition until he either fights Gamboa or moves up once again to 140
