    You're right thats why the show is a bunch of bull**** and isnt having another season!!I felt really bad for Gomez.. Great, great kid.. That was unjust.. Peter Manfredo is a joke.. Ive heard he is a world ranked middleweight.. I think Gomez has a better style for the pros, and I like the fact that he has fought the best out there , not padded his record fighting bums..

      yeah, I agree. I'm getting sick of watching Manfredo get pounded for rounds while his wife is yelling "C'MON PETER!!" it's very annoying, and it's **** that Gomez lost to him, when he already destroyed him their first fight, I hope this guy has a good future in boxing, and from the way he fights, it looks like he will.

        Yeah Peter is WAY overrated. I don't like his poor stance and posture in the ring. Plus he gets discouraged if his daddy isn't watching. And man all those spectator shots with everyone shadow boxing as if they were in the ring is embarrassing. I mean there are grandmas and little girls throwing hooks and jabs.

          I agree. The kid seems to have a great attitude and a lot of potential. I'd also say he could lose some weight and move down but part of the reason for the stamina concern is that the ring men were aweful. "You got to get busy, keep punching, attack, attack, attack!!!" This might make for better tv but is not very sound advice coming from your corner man. For example, when Jesse ko'd Balisante or what ever his name was, Balisante had won at least 3 and maybe 4 of the first 4 rounds. But instead of telling him the fight was his and just play it safe and stay away from Jesse, the corner guy tells him he really needs the round and to really mix it up.

            About Peter, I agree. If he wins the million bucks it will be an embarrassment. The guy lost the very first fight nad shouldn't even be there. I think "the snake" will win it all.

              i want mora to win it all, he seems the best fighter in the series, although i also was impressed by najai turpin (R.I.P.). too bad losing to mora was the end for him, i like fighters who throw a lot of punches. im in the uk so we a few episodes behind so thanks for allowing me to win bets on who wins. joey gilbert has heart as he fought through pain in both fights.

                I hope Sergio wins but he needs to go lift some weights. He has arms like a girl. A lot of these guys do actually.
