    A great War Cemented Gomez' position as one of Puerto Rico's finest, if not the best!

    Great fight, great tug of war. I can't believe Gomez pulled it out really. Pintor seemed much fresher for most of the fight.

    Pintor seem to counter Gomez with everything he threw but Wilfredo would not stop coming.

    Absolutely brutal fight between two very good fighters...Great even.

    IMO this fight done just as much for Pintor too, he gave a bigger great absolutely all he could handle right to the very end, pushing him to his limits time and again. Great fight, and two great fighters.

    .............I don't know that I've seen more blatant use of elbows following punches than Gomez used in round six.

    Geez, I'll have to check that out. I always thought Mike Tyson was the poster boy for blatant use of elbows following punches.

    pintor had gomez's face pretty swollen up, so it was an awsome fight.

    One of the most brutal, exciting fights I have ever seen, especially that 12th round.
