Its offical. This is what Gomez had to say about this.
Hello guys, I just came here real quick to thank you all for the constant support and believe you have shown these years.
This is for all of you, for my family, for myself, for all the people who laughed at me because I took a different route towards success (The Contender), and for that little Mexican boy in some scrappy old town who will be someone a few years from now.
As I look back at my journey to get to this point, I realize that this fight was ment to be. I could have fought for the title with a lesser named opponent but my story didn't call for that. The obstacles I have overcomed to get to this point gave me the certanty I would face off against my toughest adversary in an epic way before I could reach the top.
Miguel Cotto holds Titles in two weight classes and is undefeated. The battle will take place on the East Coast where he is King. And it will take place in the same venue where I defeated their once celebrated King. So you know every one will wish for my defeat. Yet, with all these circumstances pointing their arrows at me, this my story and the scene ends with me bringing the title back home with me and showing the World exactly what I always knew.
