Why Gomez Will KTFO Cotto!

[flipside]

worse than any pac thread, really.

My heart says agree, cuz i want to see cotto get beat. But my head says strongly disagree.

You *****! you took my avatar!

Anyway, I like both fighters, I used to hate Cotto but he has proven me wrong, the guy can hit, he can box, and his chin is better than what most people think. Gomez is a good young boxer, has good skills and better than average power, but I think he's not in Cotto's class right now and I don't know if he will ever get there. I like him a lot and I will be rooting for him since I always go for the underdog, however I wouldn't be surprised if he does somehow KO's Cotto, guys weird **** has happened before in sports, but on paper, Cotto will destroy Gomez. Regardless of the outcome I think it's gonna be a good fight, and Gomez will surprise a lot of people.

Gomez hits harder than zab?.... Wow

Gomez does have a good jab, but he gets lazy with it sometimes. Cotto will take advantage.

I dont understand how people can compare gomez to cotto and say that gomez is the better fighter... Shocking.

I think some people are watching to many contender re-runs.

i agree actually. cotto has a style that will make him brawl. cotto is weak and can't knock gomez out for sure. also gomez was on the contender and showed a lot of heart and will against bigger guys. definately its a ud for cotto or a ko for gomez. mosley was shot, zab is just zab, quinatana only fights good against black people. gomez to win

you gotta be kidding me.

Ok, after 5 minutes of non-stop laughing, I'm ready to post a reply.

1. Gatti does not have a much better chin than Cotto. Remember how Gatti looked against Baldomir, a man with a KO percentage of 21% (13KOs in 61 fights)? Gomez isn't much better at 8KOs in 23 fights so we can take for granted that Gatti just doesn't have a beard at 147. He's too small for Welterweight. Meanwhile, Cotto has not been so much as bothered in his fights with Zab and Mosley, who punch much, much harder than Gomez could hit with a sledgehammer.

2. Gomez has a decent jab, not a great jab. But Cotto isn't Trinidad and he won't be foiled by one punch. Paulie has a much better jab than Gomez and it didn't stop Miguel one bit.

3. Just ridiculous. If you truly think that Alfonso hits harder than Zab, I have some ocean-front property in Arizona to sell you.

4. Cotto might not take him seriously but we haven't seen this attitude from Cotto before and I don't expect to see it now. He's never underestimated an opponent and I doubt Gomez will be the first.

You're a Cotto hater, and that's cool, but at least look at things objectively and realize that Cotto is the far superior fighter. If you want to root for Gomez, that's fine, just don't bet your house on it (or look like an idiot with posts like this).

LMFAO spot on. maybe we should be nice to the guy, he's new around here i dont think he knows how things work on here yet. he's bound to get ripped talking crap like that though.

he will not KTFO but the fight will be closer than expected.that come all the haters saying "cotto aint **** he couldnt even knock gomez out"
