Can Gomez beat Burns?

(But hey Fenster, if Burns does lose the egg will take a long time to clean off of my face....)

Gomez will be fucked after four or five rounds. All Burns has to do is stay out of trouble till then. I do like to watch Gomez fights though even though he's a pale shadow etc.

Personally, I think that Gomez does have a reasonable chance of succeeding at this, and here's why.

Despite the fact his last big win was in '04 against Kirakosyan, Gomez does have power, and had very entertaining bouts both against Khan and Johanneson, and will still have the stamina to fight for 6-8 rounds, and will be hoping it doesn't go beyond then to be honest.

In Alex Arthur and Carl Johanneson, both of Ricky's defeats have come against domestic fighters who pack a bit of a punch, and I would suggest that perhaps he'll have a few punches that will trouble Burns.

Gomez has got no chance at all, have you seen the bloke recently i feel sorry for him his speech is really bad sounds punch drunk, the guy will be stopped.

2/1 Burns to win by stoppage has to be a decent bet.

(expect Gomez to win on PTS)

I think Gomez will see the end of this one... but will prob lose via UD

If he does get stopped then he would seriously need to think about packing in

That finish was like Mosley vs Margarito . You could see Burns putting everything into every shot he threw . I was quite impressed considering he had only KO'd 5 guys previously
