Can Gomez beat Burns?

[Fenster]

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

Mate come on? You were impressed? Gomez has been shot for years, hes shit hes slow doesnt move his head if this was 5 years ago Burns would of been ko'd no doubt in my mind.

Yeah I was impressed. Its always good to see a young fighter with not much power try to take an opponent out . He could have just boxed all night but its good to see a bit of devil .

As for Gomez I knew he was a warmed up corpse before he took on Khan. I saw Gomez getting knocked out by Lazlo Bognar years ago. I was also there for the rematch which he won so I know that even though he isnt the most talented , he will still give it a go. He gave it his best last night but as he admitted he hasnt got it anymore. When he fought Johansson he got badly knocked out aswel so he has nowhere to go. At the finish I thought he should have been given a count . Fair enough if the ref stopped it when he got up but atleast give him a chance. Gomez went down on a knee to buy some time. and the ref robbed him of it. He was on Burns' case too much aswel that ref was.

Burns doesnt want to go anywhere near Rocky Martinez. Gomez can have a couple of easy wins and go out on 50.

I agree that Burns was much the better fighter last night, and was landing with fluency and accuracy making Gomez look pondering.

However, I thought the ref was justifiably on his back as Burns did seem to have his arms all over Gomez whenever they came close.

The one gripe I would have is that the first punch of the final flurry which did for Gomez looked well dodgy for me. Burns had his left forearm across Gomez' neck pushing it back, then held it there as he threw the biggest right he'd thrown all night. He'd already been warned for use of the forearm earlier in the fight as well, and it just brought the end forward a few minutes.

My view is Burns is as good as He is going to get. Terrible Technique it wont get better
