Alfonso Gomez

[prince21]

Gatti is flatfooted. It is extremely easy to outbox him, especially considering he started out his career at 130, and look where he is now. He only looks good against featherweights.

I like gomez. He seems to be serious about the game.

BTW Smokin' You do know that the guy in your avatar is from Real World on MTV and is as ***** as ***** can be.

And with a name like smokin I WONDER hmmmmmmmmmmmmm............

Gomez is a future star, I was very impressed by him when I seen him beat Concepion at the UK vs USA contender show. I met him at the pre fight weigh in hes a nice guy.
Hes got a good style to watch, hes got heart,he can punch and take a punch.

gomez will be light middleweight champion if he can land a fight with baldomir or forrest, i said it

[SpeedKillz]

i think gomez is a decent fighter with alot of heart. he comes to win. he can definitely fight but i dono if he can **** in welterweight with all those power guys. i would like to see him have 2 or 3 more fights and have a match with cintron. see how he does against a heavy hitter, then we'll make our decisions. too difficult to tell.

Exactly. I good boxer will give him trouble, unless he can turn it into more of a brawl. Didn't Gomez himself say he fought like Gatti? Good boxers who refused to brawl always gave Gatti trouble.

No ****, I picked him for that reason you nutjob.

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.

Yeah, thats kind of another think you've got to consider. Gomez is definately improving a lot and will continue to improve. He is looking better and better every time I see him.

I'm very uneasy about anybody giving Gomez too much of a pat on the back for his win over Arturo Gatti. Because obviously Gatti was never an elite fighter, he was extremely flat-footed and easy to hit, and his timing was so horrible that I wondered if he hadn't shown the early signs of brain damage. That said, Gomez did what he had to do and fought a perfect fight against Gatti.

However that's all I'm going to say about Alfonso Gomez because I believe if he fights any serious opposition at Welterweight his chin would be shattered like glass. He's a nice, likeable guy with a good heart but he has no power at all and he's in the wrong division. If I were his advisors I'd consider a jump in weight to 147lbs, where may be able to carve himself out a decent spot in the sport.

Gatti has been shot since 2001....That's 6 years. He has been coddled and protected and has been fighting for the most part C level fighters and B level featherweights who cant punch. Anyone with half a brain could see that he is punch drunk and has brain damage. He should of never been in that ring in the first place.

Completely agree.
