    Peter by KO or Gomez on points. Gomez is a verry good boxer but to me Peter is the slight favourite to knock Gomez out. Peter is so much physicall bigger and stronger. Im a fan of both fighters though and hope they dont fight each other.

    Gomez dont got the name Rahman or Mccall has, who wants to see a blown up cruiser fight Peter anyway. Theres alot more interesting fights that could be made other than Gomez/Peter, Rahman or Mccall would be way more exciting for fight fans.

    Tough call, I agree it's 50/50. Considering Peter's ridiculous "skills" almost any contender has a chance to outpoint him, Gomez has easily the abilty to do that. But Gomez is the kind of guy who can get lazy any minute of the fight and if he gets caught flush it's probably over.
    WTF are you talking about? Gomez-Peter is much more intrguing than a match with Rahman or McCall, Rahman was exposed numerous times as the joke he is and McCall has no ambitions anymore, he just sticks around for the pay day.
    :lol: Sam Peter doesn't outclass anyone. You know who we're talking about? :yep

    Honestly most people never even seen Gomez fight, hes rarely on television and doesnt have name thats recognizable to the general public like Rahman or Mccall. Gomez poses almost zero threat of knocking Peter out and thats what most people want to see, god forbid he would out point Peter we might have another boring fighter like Chris Bryd was champion. NBT as far as Mccalls ambition the man wants to fight whoever they put infront of him, and over the last couple years hes wanted of the dedicated heavywieghts out there. And would also like to see if Peter can knockout the iron chinned Mccall, it would be an awsome feat if he could.

    Gomez is a volume puncher so he could put some rounds in the bank while Peter gets settled but in the end he won't be able to keep him off for 12 rounds.

    He outclassed and completely outboxed one of the slickest guys in the history of the sport in James Toney. Hello??? :huh

    Yeahh yeahh I know I know... Toney was old... Toney was fat... he's a middleweight... blah blah blah. Bottom line is that Peter won in a fashion no one thought he would and that's saying something for Sam.

    I'll favor Peter, but if Gomez is focused and in shape, he should have a very serious chance at coasting past him and winning a UD.

    Gomez shouldn't get a shot, because his "win" over McCall was done on drugs. I think anyone who is proven to have used drugs as a pro or amateur should be disqualified from boxing for titles; it'd be an effective deterrant.

    Yes, but it was cocaine, not steroids. Not that I condone cocaine use, but it wasn't a performance-enhancer(though I'm unsure just how cocaine might effect one's showing in a boxing match).
