    I see a problem with your thinking if this is your honest opinion.

    I don't know why I bother but here goes.........

    Gomez is a welter FFS who just gets beat up and totally outclassed EVERY time he steps up. He is not very good. Why the **** would Mundine fight him. Mundine has had 5 yrs worth of soft tune up fights and this would just be another. If Mundine had any motivation to succeed in the sport he would have fought Golovkin at 160 or Trout at 154. Both champs were basically begging Mundine to take the challenge but he ran away both times and now YOU"RE happy that he might fight a career welter in Alfonso Gomez.

    I've nearly completely lost faith in boxing and some boxing fans.

    Since 2004, Gomez has had 17 fights. Only 4 times has he fought at the welterweight limit, the rest above it. He also made his name fighting in the Contender, as a MIDDLEWEIGHT. While he is no world beater, and a small 154lb, he is still a 154lb

    The undersized Gomez gave Canelo all he could handle before Canelo got what was one of the worst stoppages of the year in his favor, and the one time he actually got "beat up and totally outclassed" he was fighting prime Miguel Cotto with a broken hand(before the fight even started) and after being sent to the hospital for pancreatis in the middle of his training camp so he wasn't exactly in top condition at the time. Gomez isn't a world beater, but every opponent other than Cotto has had to work hard to beat him, and most fighters around 147 and 154 are going to have a difficult time with him. He would give Mundine a decent fight at worst. All that said, he's not likely going to be Mundine's opponent, because it looks like Gomez will be fighting rising prospect Jessie Vargas at Welterweight on the undercard of Mayweather vs Cotto.

    So what's stopping Mundine fighting him then?

    He should be fighting Trout next because:

    1. He claimed he was gunning for Trout.
    2. Trout holds a 'world title'.
    3. He first ducked Trout by claiming Trout was demanding too many options, so instead he fought Alvarez, claiming he would become Trout's mandatory that way, preventing Trout from making demands.
    4. He beat Alvarez, thereby becoming Trout's mandatory, all of a sudfden he shuts up about Trout.
    5. After weeks of silence about Trout he announces he's going to the USA to sign with Top Rank.
    6. He has closed his twitter account.

    Whoever he does fight next won't be as good as Trout, regardless of how bad he looked against LoPorto.

    Who do you think he should fight next?

    Ive been a big fan of choc since he beat Ian McCloud. I was there when he beat Echols and Green and his loss to Kessler, He had the potential but he has never been able to fully back it up, If he fights anyone less than Trout in his next outin he needs to give it away, and this is coming from a big fan...
