    I can't wait 'til Gomez shocks the boxing world on April 12th.

        Cotto is a tremendously strong welterweight. I wouldn't anticipate any "size" or power advantages for Gomez. Shane Mosley, a small powerhouse himself, was very explicit in detailing how Cotto is incredibly strong.. Extremely.

          Cotto was a welterweight in a superlightweight's body for a long time before he moved up. He's bigger than most people think he is. Beating Gomez will be more about his physical strength than his punching power and he has the edge in both categories. The size difference won't mean **** cuz for Gomez to win he has to box and move around not stand in close and try to be strong. Cotto will **** him up in close exchanges.

            Gomez may be taller but by no means is he bigger than Cotto who has a huge back and shoulders.

              I'm also getting tired of the Mexico/PR implications this fight carries. Gomez is by no means a worthy representative of Mexico.

              He's not worthy enough to even step in the ring with Cotto.

                why, what did he do/didnt do to not be worthy of representing Mexico?

                  I give Forbes a better chance. He's fighting a rich old boxer. Gomez is fighting a tiger in his prime.

                      We've seen Cotto take opponents lightly before, this may be Gomez's only hope but if Cotto is not 100% it could be interesting.
