Former WBA featherweight champion Yuriorkis Gamboa kept things moving Saturday night in Atlantic City, scoring a dominant, technical-decision over former champion Daniel Ponce De Leon. Gamboa won nearly every round all on three judges? scorecards before seeing the fight stopped due to a nasty cut on De Leon?s forehead that was caused from an accidental clash of heads in the eighth.
Undefeated with a mark of 21-0 with 16 stoppages, there is no denying the striking talent that the explosive Cuban possesses, but he has shown weaknesses in previous fights that have had a long list of potential opponents eyeing his every move. Count in Miguel ?Mikey? Garcia as one of those with a vested interest in Gamboa.
