Jab-8. It was of good use, worked well with his style. Not often a weapon in and of its own, though. Hook-9. Excellent punch, dug it in well to the body as well. Very well placed. Cross-9. Another great punch, although he started to rely more and more on it as his career progressed, rather than working it in unity with his other punches. Uppercut-8. Showed a very good left uppercut, often used to finish up an inside combination. Defensive skills-Early in his career, a solid 9. One of the best at integrating offense and defense. Offensive skills-10. Again I'm usually referring to a young Gomez when he was one of the most well-rounded fighters I've ever seen. Footwork-10. Some of the best I've ever seen. Counter-Punches-Gotta be up there in the solid 9 or so range as well. Power-8. He was the type to break his opponents down piece by piece, although he had the ability to take them out with a single good blow on occasion. Speed-A solid 9. Great reflexes. Ring Generalship-10. Again, some of the best I've seen in his prime, circa the ages of 19-22. Combinations-Very controlled, very well placed, not often leaving himself in a position to be countered. At least a 9. Feints-10. One of the very best ever in this regard. Accuracy-Solid 9. Timing-9.. Killer Instinct-10. He was a mean ******* Body Punches-Another 9. He rarely neglected the body. A very economical precision attacker. Upper Body movement-Again, I must continue to reiterate that I'm mainly taking into account his abilities in his young prime, otherwise a lot of these may seem strange. As his career progressed, his overall game deteriorated very noticably, and this was one of the main areas I felt. Early on it was magnificent. Again, the integration of offense and defense was superb. He'd use it to avoid the punch with the sway to the left, and in the motion back to the right would use it to gain leverage for his counter blows. Chin-6 or so. Not great by any means, but not bad. Heart-He had a lot of it. It's often what allowed him to get by when his chin faltered him. A solid, if not a 9. Stamina-Never saw many issues with it. He could box or slug well into the late rounds quite well. 9. In-Fighting-He had some great exhibitions of in-fighting. A good 8 or 9. Range Fighting-8. Opposition level-9 Sorry, I was multi-tasking while writing the post, considering deleting it altogether because it's quite sketchy, but I thought "What the hay!"
this is a good complete list of determining a fighter and i think gomez is bordering on atg:yep:think
Yeah, I agree with you El...... The threat would be "How do you rate Salvador Sanchez ?" But I changed.....
