I'm not going to say anything crazy and call him a contender to beat Mayweather or Mosely or anything like that, but man, I was impressed. That was a very nice display of pressure and counter-punching by Gomez against Gatti. It doesn't say to much considering that Baldomir was able to handle Gatti with relative ease, but I like Gomez. I definately look forward to seeing him fight some more. He is a very exciting and likeable fighter.

I wouldn't call him an immediate player in the division, but he did finally put the Dragon to sleep. I was impressed with his power, since he's not known to have much. I think he could be a fringe contender for years, never really reaching championship status. He's not on the same level as Cotto, Williams, Floyd, etc.
Good display, landed some amazing flush shots. Credit is givin where credit is do.Comment

Thing is.. he's still a pretty young fighter.. has not too many fights and could still learn TONS in his next 5 or 6 fights.. Before having to TRULY step up again. Good fought, easy or not to beat Gatti, he did what he had to do. His job, and he did it well.Comment
