    Although Gomez's power at 140 is yet to be seen, this wouldnt be a terrible matchup. Hatton is not a huge puncher and they both fight at round the same pace.

    However, I do also believe this fight shouldnt happen until late 09 earliest as Gomez does need to prove himself at 140. He should start with a high level tune-up just to see how he fares in the division. Someone like Francisco Figueroa, or hell fight David Barnes on a Hatton undercard. Someone on that level. If he pases that test, a high level challenge, the likes of Paulie, Torres, or Ngoudjo. If and I do mean IF he can do that, then he can get a crack at Hatton. IMO...

      Gomez has gotta build himself back up after he got whomped buy Cotto. He didn't even put up the good fight I thought he would. And Bradley, Holt, and Zab will want Hatton at 140 after Pac, so no way Gomez gets it.

        Gomez didnt land one good punch on Cotto and has never beaten a fighter who was any good, or wasnt wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy past their best (see Gatti). Hatton would murder him in a way that would ruin Gomez for life as a fighter. As someone who doesnt like Gomez, I say make this **** happen after the Hattn v Pacman fight!

          I dont believe it would be like the Cotto fight, Hatton doesnt have the punching power. Although I see you as a disturbed person to wish that fate on anybody you fights to make a living

            After seeing him think he was the 2nd coming after brutally beating up an old, smaller Gatti, all bets are off...

              uh Gomez calling out Hatton is much worse then Holt calling out Pac

              to his credit at least Holt is a titlist where Gomez has done very little in his career at 147, let alone 140 ..

              has Gomez even fought at 140?

                I am a huge Gatti fan. I gave Gomez a lot of respect for that. Do you really think that Gatti would have wanted his last fight to be carried to the distance? If thats why you hate Gomez why dont you hate on Oscar for ending Chavez Sr?

                  lmao. come on guys.

                  Gomez vs Hatton? Gomez has NO chance, Gomez is a TUNE-UP for Hatton when he loses to Pac.

                  Gomez doesn't stand a chance, he'll get creamed.

                    Wishful thinking...among the "fringe" names at 140 Bradley is clearly king.
