Is Cotto underestimating Gomez?

[p4pking]

Well ok Danny, I haven't seen all those fights, just Pinto and Bailey... But I'd put that down to Cotto just being vastly better than them instead of the height differential. Maussa for instance, sucks. I've never heard of Brown either. All I know is Corley, Torres, Mosley and Judah are all listed as being at least as tall as Cotto, Mosley was taller by a couple inches if I remember.

Like I said the tall ones get delt with the ones who are about his size fair better and the little ones just duck so low Cotto hits nothing but head and get by and survive

You did not see the Bazan fight? OMG what a great and entertaining fight. Bazan was all HEART but he got the shit beat out of him it was so funny like in the tenth, his corner said something to Bazan that made everyone who heard it laugh out loud and even bazan looked at the camera and starting laughing. Paul Rodriguez was there and made some very funny comments that made the whole thing even more funny. I felt kind of bad for bazan but he was all heart that night.

I have Always liked Gomez is the only one I have followed from the contender series. I see in him a promising contender I like his style and I see in him space to develop.

Right now in my eyes it would be a very good fight but I do think is way to soon to put Gomez with Cotto. It's like Vargas a good up and comer but they put him to sson with a guy like Tito.

I am not pickin Gomez but I have said before on these boards that Gomez is not to be looked at as an opponent by anyone..The guy comes to fight and he has skills...not elite but he is not a scrub either.....He will give Cotto a good fight..

I also do not think Cotto is the type to overlook anyone...He is always improving and is not the cocky type that thinks he will just go in and make short work of anyone....

Its hard to be surprised by much of anything lately but I really can't see it. Long drawn out beating for Gomez.

I reckon Gomez will suprise everyone by going the distance.

He's been able to hang with much bigger men in the past.

My only concern for him is that in the past his body as often looked a little soft and we all know how Cotto loves to go the body.

If Gomez does get stopped I reckon it will be the body punches that do it.

I like the song on the video....
