If Gomez doesn't believe in Gomez who is going to? Further, what is he going to say, "To tell you the truth, Cotto is going to knock the living shet out of me. And commissioners should be examined after approving this fight, but I want a payday."
Good point. LMAO CC
It was just the way Paulie and his people thought that just because Paulie sparred with bigger fighters, that he was not going to be affected by Cotto. I know Gomez has fought at 160 during the Contender but Cotto is no Peter Manfredo Jr nor is he a Jesse Brinkley. But I hear what you are saying boozeboxer and if this fight does happen and if Cotto does not take Gomez serious, Gomez could do pretty good for himself. I doubt Cotto takes anyone lightly but we have all seen it happen to the best of them and Cotto is no exception.
