    All thing even, the Cuban Bon Bon has more than enough ability to win convincingly, but if we're to sacrifice Bazooka's power at featherweight then he's in for an ugly night.

    Kid Chocolate gave the naturally bigger, skull-denting Tony Canzoneri all kinds of trouble. The way he flashed his talent in such a torrid fight shoes just how complete a fighter he was. Those scything combinations would abuse Gomez's fair skin and his elusive acrobatics would make the explosive Puerto Rican appear clumsy.

    He'd have to work, just as Andre Ward did to tame Carl Froch, but if The Keed is on his game we shouldn't expect much more than a few disputable rounds in a one-sided fight.

    The classy sharp-shooter dazzles in a fearsome bout.
