When Gomez moved up in weight to challenge Sanchez, et. al. he didn't demand any catchweights either or demand any other weight restrictions. He took on the challenge like a true warrior.

at super-bantam gomez is unbeatable he beats pac .but at feather and super-feather pac wins by stoppage
Manny has had one catch weight fight, he went up to face Barrera, Morales, Hatton, De La Hoya, etc.
The Miguel Cotto fight is the first fight he has done at a catch weight where Miguel has to lose two more pounds than usual? One more pound than his last fight?
Gomez, along with a lot of other greats, wouldn't even dreamed of acclompishing what Manny has done in terms of the success he has had at higher weights.

Gomez would convincingly beat him. Maybe even stop him. Lotta ppl forget that Gomez at 122 is one of the best boxer ever, period.

Gomez didn't have good KO power at 122, he had incredible punching power regardless his weight, he's one of the hardest punchers of all time, and yes, Pacquiao was one sided at 122, whoever says different is blinded by their love for him, or have forgotten that he has not always been the fighter that he is today, so the Pacquiao that fought at 122 would have gotten KTFO if he would have tried to trade with Gomez, which he would have cause that's the only way he knew how to fight at that weight, and yea Taeth all 3 you mentioned managed to wobble Pacquiao (Morales, Barrera, and Marquez), Gomez wouldn't of wobbled him, he would of turned his lights out

Hatton also was undefeated at 140 for 40+ fights. Pac takes him only in 2 rds. Gomez was forgettable coz He was not the top fighter in his generation. Sanchez is the one. But Sanchez also was cut short, He only fights at 126.
If there's no Manny Pacquiao, Barrera & Morales could've equaled Sanchez's Greatness. Remember Erik's Iron Jaw at 122-126Pac was the one to Cracked that at 130.
So please stop Gloryfying your Chinny Chinned Boriqua Hero. He doesn't passed the requirement that is required to Make him Last 12 rds with the Pacman.

Im not even going to bother, to reply to that guy anymore. Its clear he's never seen Wilfredo Gomez fight and its clear he knows nothing about Wilfredo Gomez. Otherwise he wouldn't come out with such a ridiculous comparison.
I actually just laughed when he said about Erik Morales, considering how shot Erik Morales was. I watched Zahir Raheem vs Erik Morales again recently, and couldn't believe how bad Erik Morales was in that fight.
And how much Erik Morales was getting shook up, by a mediocre puncher like Zahir Raheem. Erik Morales pretty much lost every round, it was an embarrassing loss and he was clearly finished.
His last great performance was against Manny Pacquiao, in there 1st meeting and he still wasn't at his 100 percent best there either. But he was clearly done after the Zahir Raheem loss.
Im sorry but i do think Manny Pacquiao, is a bit overrated on this board. I think he is a great fighter but he clearly has been a bit lucky. When he met certain fighters.

By the way the Manny Pacquiao nut hugger, mentioned Manny Pacquiao stopped all of his opponents at 122 except Agapito Sanchez. Well Wilfredo Gomez had a 100 percent KO record at Super Bantamweight, not including his pro debut draw which he revenged. And he also had 18 title fights at Super Bantamweight stopping all 18. His overall record at Super Bantamweight was 40 wins, 40 ko's, 1 draw. I believe unless im slightly out.
