Former world champion Yuriorkis Gamboa has made the decision to drop down in weight to the 130 pound division after failing to win a world title at 135 pounds and has his sights set on current champion Mikey Garcia.
“I am returning to 130 pounds and I would like to fight Mikey Garcia,” said Gamboa whom suffered the first loss of his pro career last Saturday against Terrence Crawford.
Gamboa and Garcia seemedto be on a collision course earlier this year but the bout did not happen due to the high price being asked for by Garcia.
