Spotted this at Fightnews : ------------------------------------------------------------------ WBC #5 heavyweight Juan Carlos Gomez faces WBC #3 ranked International titleholder Oliver McCall in a WBC world championship eliminator on October 19th in Berlin's Estrel Convention Center. With the back injury suffered by Vitali Klitschko, the victor in this grudge match has a good chance to get his world title shot against the Oleg Maskaev-Samuel Peter winner in short order. It's the second time that the "Black Panther" and "The Atomic Bull" have clashed. Two years ago, Gomez decisioned McCall but later tested positive for cocaine. "After the fight McCall started trash talking. He said that I would rather run than fight and that I couldn't punch hard. Well, in Berlin I will proof him wrong," promised Gomez during today's press conference at the Cancun Bar near Potsdamer Platz. ------------------------------------------------------------------ I think McCall would be overjoyed if Gomez tried going toe-to-toe, but I expect him to stick 'n' move like normal. I expect this one to be closer than the first time though, maybe with a different outcome.
Gomez is verry skilled, but if he thinks he can hurt or even stop McCall hes wrong, verry wrong. McCline was never knocked out.
