My official pick: Cotto TKO anywhere between 4 and 8 (my guess is round 6) We'll see if Gomez can prove me wrong tomorrow.
How many flush shot did PBF give to Gatti??? How many from WArd??? The fact is Gatti end up in the floor & retired in a fight that many thought Gomez is just a Chicken feed. Gomez resume is tricky, Ishe & Feliciano in his 1st 4 fights?? Jumps to 154 & beat Manfredo?? I rate Gomez now as B+. He's shown skills, durability, Heart & Cajones. Last year i give chance for Feliciano for an upset against Cintron when almost everybody here thought Feliciano has no chance at all(esp HUki). Tell you what guys, I give Gomez better chance of an upset than Feliciano last year. If not upset , this could be a very exciting back & fourth FOTY quality fight with a very Close in the card.
Are you using that as a gauge of Gomez's power? If so, then Carlos Baldomir must pack a hell of a punch too since he KO'd Gatti just as brutally as Gomez did a year earlier. So what does this mean...you're psychic or some ****?
I'd be surprised if people hadn't picked Hatton over Mayweather in great numbers. ESB has desensitized me to analytical absurdity. :nut
It means Gomez & Baldo was the larger mass of a man than Cotto & Gatti. I'm not a psychic, I'm nostradamus.:hey
Yeah, it's all relative because Cotto is a shop worn punching bag at the end of his career. More like Ms. Cleo.
This is the year for upsets but come on man. Cotto does everything better than Gomez and IMO is also stronger even though Gomez is bigger. I like Gomez, i really didnt want to see him take this fight because his chances are slim to none and none died at the table when they signed the contract. I would have rather he faced Cintron or Quintana and try to take their title.
You're still bringing up that one example over and over? The funny thing is that my Cintron by TKO pick was still correct. Your "bragging rights" system and way of thinking is that of a 7 year old. There is no way Gomez is making this fight close at all. He's going to get destroyed and I'll be very surprised if he sees round 10. BTW PacDBest, you were pretty quiet about the JMM-Pac rematch after the fight happened and you still don't talk about the outcome very much or rub it in everyone's face that Pac "won". I sense you're embarassed that the fight was so close and your Pac by KO prediction was wrong.
