Gatti 7/2 to stop or KO Gomez: Good Value

Chris W 1982 · Post by **Chris W 1982** » 09 Jul 2007, 12:41

Just checked my Ladbrokes Account to see any good offers for this weekends fights and i was instantly surprised by this.

I know Gomez has never been stopped but he is stepping into the ring with someone is levels above the opposition he has been fighting. I think Gatti defenitely has enough smarts to stop Gomez before the middle rounds so i will be defenitely placing a wager on this.

By the way Limond is 8/1 against Khan, who is ridicolously priced at 1/33.

Yeah....it remains to be seen if Gatti is completely shot..

You can get 5-1 at extrabet also for the Gatti KO

Limond may be worth a quid at 8/1, given Khan's punch resistance question marks. I know Limond is no puncher but still....1/33??

What odds on Gomez closing the show on a tired, and frankly buggered Gatti?

I've always seen Gomez v Gatti as one of those fights where they'll be pinging shots off eachother all night. I don't expect to see anyone get stopped here.

Limond to stop Khan? It's a step up but not THAT big a step up.

Gatti is a huge step up for Gomez, who frankly, aint that good. Gatti's losses have come against quality, world class, operators. I fancy Arturo to do the business.

Ditto - I think he'll stop him in about 4.

Might go to the fight, its only 2 hours from New York (currently living in London and New YOrk)

Think Gatti will stop him, but a bit later than that.

I know Gomez hasn't been in with much, but Manfredo is a decent sized Middleweight who can bang and Gomez hang in there for 5 and then 7 rounds.

However, Gomez's stamina isn't that great. I've read reports that he tired badly in that fairly recent draw he had (absolute slugfest) and I do think the reason why Manfredo got the decision the second time was because it was a 7 rounder.

If not completely shot, Gatti TKO 10.

One thing you have to consider is the size factor - Gomez is a middleweight come welter whilst Gatti is a small welter and I doublt he has the pop at welter that he did at superfeather,lightweight and lightwelter. Reckon Gomez could do a Baldy on Gatti but its a toss up in my eyes though I agree that IF Gatti isnt shot he is a class above Gomez. But the thing is I think he is shot.

A shopworn Gatti is going to get beaten by either Gomez or Chavez Jr, and I'll shed a tear when one of them does it...

He may sneak past Gomez - I can't see him knmocking him out though - and lose to Chavez, who is shit.

I honestly think Gatti is just about done. Gomez to win.

He managed to KO Daamgard, who is okay. So he lost to Baldomir and Mayweather - no disgrace there.

Interesting weekends boxing coming up - one of the best weekends this year IMO.
