Vic loves to ice southpaws, so he keeps on telling everyone. Im a little sick of Vic and his big mouth, i still hope he wins but he might be outboxed, unless he can land some big shots early he might be chasing Z Gorres for 12 rounds. Can Vic win on points in Pinoy land?? :think
The ref & judges aint hometown boys, so Vic can definitely win on points. Tho u would think he has to hurt Z Gorres relatively early in this fight to guarantee it. Landing big shots might make Gorres go into his shell.
THATS right, its a NZ ref also i think i read. I havent seen Gorres, but it sounds like he is a good mover and boxer.

Z Gorres is going to give Vic a lot of trouble and i think he will beat him. He gave Fernado Montiel a tough fight and he maybe to good for Vic here.
Wrong Montiel beat Zzzzzzzz comfortably. I don't see anything special with zzzzz very boring to watch. I think If darch fought Zzzzzzzzzz stablemate Aj Banal he would get KTFO!! Zzzzzz is elusive and hard to hit.Let's see what happens.Darch is old! Z has a glass jaw with sus fitness. Darch will have problems though IMO. But won't be suprised if Darch stops zzzz or zzzzzz stops darchi..
Willie will be on the card too. Against some unknown from the Southside Phils.Where you see all of the Filo aussie based boxers come from. Willie Kick it! should win....Kegs!! Shame can't watch it live anywhere!!
Yeah im very disapointed mate.:fire:fire:fire Willy should win, the guy he is facing seems a bit untested & has lost. Hopefully Vic gets the KO.:yep Interesting to see if Z Gorres gets tagged a bit early, how he reacts.:deal
dude, don't worry about it. he lost his last fight in the philippines against fernando montiel. if filipinos did not steal the decision to win a world championship, i think they have less reason now to steal a decision for a #1 ranking. don't worry about it. and besides, if vic beats gorres, i do not think it will be by decision.
