Juan Carlos Gomez vs. Samuel Peter ~ WBC heavyweight title ~ Interim Title

I am also of the opinion that Gomez is overrated, I've never been impressed by his work in the ring, he has never utilized his skills, i.e. jab, footwork, handspeed, to his advantage, he seldom throws combinations which with his speed would be his biggest asset. He is very lazy, just jabs, lazy left cross and move. He could never hurt Sam Peter and thus wouldn't be able to keep him at a distance. I could really see Peter knocking him out inside 5 rounds.

 

:good

 

Juan Carlos Gomez will KO Peter 5. Raund.

 

never bet against a cuban

 

If this were the amateurs I may agree with you.

But Bowe's ass whooping of Jorge luis Gonzalez is still fresh in my mind.

 

Virchis and Peters skills are about the same level, that's one of the reasons why this match would be intriguing. Gomez is overrated now, I agree, he is not as good as in his heydays as a Cruiser anymore but he is still FAR superior in skill to the likes of Sam Peter. Peter on the other hand gets overrated by some people, it's ridiculious. I guess if he beats another old, slow, over the hill guy in McCall (which is exactly the type of boxer Peter can look good against) the hype starts again and we are back at "Peter will knock Wlad out with the first punch of the fight". People never learn. :nut

 

It took Peter 2 attempts to beat an out shape Cruiserweight In Toney, he might win by KO but he will be behind on the cards.

 

It all depends on which Gomez shows up. He has the skills.

 

gomez got no chin. peter knocks him out bad.

 

The fight will not come because McCall will kick his ass and will be next mandator.
