Yuriorkis Gamboa

So far, from everything I've seen from Yiororkis Gamboa, he looks like an amazing prospect. He has an excellent blend of speed and power, although his defense needs a bit of work. I just wonder if he'll improve. I don't think the guy can defeat a Joan Guzman or an Humberto Soto at this point, but he's already 26 years old and has 300+ amateur fights. That's older than many established pro boxers and an abundance of experience. Do prospects like this actually improve? That being said, even if Gamboa doesn't improve much, he can give anyone in his weight class a hell of a fight. I just wonder if he'll become the superstar they're hyping him up to be.
