Gomez - And the NEW WBC Heavyweight Champion!!

You know, this is why experienced posters know not to make threads predicting the winners of fights that have yet to happen.

Gomez did pretty good. He won a round. Lost the other 8 and got beaten down, but hey, he finished on his feet. Respect for that

Yeah - props to Vitaly though. I would say - despite the fight being pretty ugly to watch - this was among his best performences.

 

I and a lot of people was saying that for many years..when Peter was coming up and Vitali was champ the first time. I really think that was the general opinion , maybe it got to 50-50 when Peter would have an impressive KO win and everyone would get excited about him. But when everything settled down I think most reasonable people saw this one being firmly in the favour of Klit.

Whilst I never used the words "tailor made"..I couldnt see how Peter was going to beat Vitali given their respective style and physical attributes.

I entertained the idea that the layoff could hurt Vitali and at his age he could well lose. But I came to the conclusion that even if he was 70% of the fighter he used to be he would be toweling Peter in his comeback..In the end he did it easier then I ever thought he would have.

 

Never a good idea to make a thread like this. Boxing is way too unpredictable and those who don't know that don't know **** about boxing. Threads like this just make you look like a moron afterwards.

Thanks for sharing this with us!

 

Yes, such a prediction reminds me of Teddy Atlas.

 

to quote myself.........
yes....as predicted....

 

Vitali usually takes his time to set things up, but with Kirk Johnson, round two. Herbie Hide round 2 for the WBO title in London. Vitali takes him time which is good. He uses good strategy.
