    :good

    I'm with you on that one. Sanchez rearranged his face in the first round and gained ultimate revenge. Sanchez didnt look like a fighter but he had some real balls didnt he?

    Gomez vs Sanchez 2 was suppose to happen, but Sanchez died.

    Gomez attended his funeral I believe.

    ............Gomez was a big favorite of mine when I first got into boxing. I appreciated the mindest as much as anything I guess; say what you will about his failures at featherweight and relative lack of opposition at 122, this one was prepared to go out on his shield every time.

    You couldn't ask for more will and determination, and the skills and power were there in abundance. I didn't like that he fought dirty a lot of the time, but he wasn't habitual about it.

    I'd put Barrera ahead of him and probably Morales, Pacquaio and Hamed. Prime for prime they all beat him. A beast at the 122lb weight but lacking in refinement. He did face the best ever in Sanchez and there was a gulf between them.

    If he was around when there was no 122 weight class he wouldn't have been much more than a contender
