Comments Thread For: Photos: Saul Alvarez, Alfonso Gomez Face To Face in LA

[LeadUppercut]

Gomez is OK, he might even win, but he fits a pattern. Canelo always fights guys that are statistically handicapped. They are moving up in weight, or over thirty and tried, or unknown no hopes. He's beat every one up til now, and Gomez fits that profile. Alvarez is a cash cow and he'll keep getting milked, so I have to hope that Gomez does some damage as he gets used. Make Alvarez pay, go for the face, leave a mark. Alvarez is too strong and body punching will be ineffective for Gomez. Gomez needs to bust an eye or two and try to bleed him and force a stoppage.

Canelo is not being " milked ", he is being " built ". HUGE difference there.

" milked "..... is what is happening to Pacquiao.

You " build " 20yo kids, and you " milk " 32yo kids.

For reals looks like his son. But wtf he looks like a **** in those pics.

See I knew he resembled Oscar. Sorry, had to take that shot

very true, man.
didn't think gomez was taller than saul, but oh well. people are writing gomez off cause of his loss to cotto a long time ago. i think he's going to put up a decent fight for saul, should be interesting. decent fight for saul, hopefully he faces a top 10 jmw after this.

Gomez is distinguishly taller than Canelo but I cant help but to remember how easily Cotto got rid of him in their fight.

I wonder if Gomez did his rapping during the press conderence.

That version of Gomez wasn't the same as this one. Gomez is a much better fighter now. I'm not saying he will beat Canelo but it should be a much better fight.

Gomez about to get ran over by Canelo!! Canelo by KO in the mid rounds no way he can **** with Canelo

I think this is a great fight for 20 year old Canelo. Gomez ain't no chump. and a win over Gomez would look good for Alvarez. Cotto fought Gomez. Why can't Canelo? Build the kid up slowly and make him a champion to remember! He has that kind of charisma.

I agree with all of the posters who think that Gomez is under-rated.

Canelo is no Cotto. Miguel was right on top of his game when he fought Gomez.

Gomez is not a great fighter, but he has a huge heart and an under-rated skillset. He will have his moments in this fight.

This fight will be reasonally competitive early imho, I would be very surprised if Canelo can blow Gomez out like Cotto did. Gomez wont **** with Canelo.
