Jeff Chandler vs Wilfredo Gomez

Post by zuru »

Chandler was tough and a good boxer who could punch.But Gomez was an elite.
I think Pintor would beat Chandler and if Richie Sandoval stopped him,Gomez would outbox rough up and ko Chandler.

I always felt that Jeff would've beaten Lupe had they fought. And even though Richie did beat Jeff, Chandler was having drug issues at that time. I think this could be the toughest fight of Gomez's career. He beats Jeff on a close unanimous verdict, 8-7.

I do remember that Chandler was also found to have cataracts? Or some eye issue with Sandoval.I probably shouldn't have included that loss because it's not relevant to Gomez.
But I don't know with Pintor.

He did have some cataract issues. Never fought again after Sandoval, which was a good thing. I think he could have beaten Pintor. Tough fight, but he pulls it off.
