I am truly eating these words now...

Gomez dodged Barrera handily in Week 5.

In Week 6, Barrera vs Gomez was SIGNED! But Gomez pulled out.

Matt, I know that you have had your run-ins with 'Buzz, but I thought you were an honourable man.

And now I know better. Shame on you Matt.

He took the opportunity of a title elimination. You are just seething that you didn't take the opportunity. He is hardly ducking if he is stepping up to take on better opposition.

its not ducking if its for a title or eliminator. only a noob wouldnt know that.

Better than Barrera? I hardly think so...

I agree commish, and for that the mans credibility is in tatters.

Crease, did Albert Sosnowski recently duck Audley Harrison to fight Vitali Klitschko?

Noob

I suppose Mosley ducked Berto too

There is a difference, Gomez fighting Rafael marquez is not him "stepping up to fight better opposition"... NO WAY!

Marquez has fought cpu fighters... And any self-respecting true champion would not behave this way.

Maruqez is not better of a higher standard than Barrera, no way.
And I'd be willing to bet that "The Barrera Machine"would defeat Marquez swiftly.

Its hardly ducking though if its for a title.

I don't expect any of the Asian/African nations to pull out of the World Cup to play meaningless friendly's against nations who were matched tougher in qualification.

Remember Crease your first thought was 'why didnt TF come to playgroup and offer it to ME!?'

So dont give it the big 'un eh?

Plus you can check the threads I have been chasing Rafa for weeks.

Rafa Marquez beat Willie Pep, all be it controversially and Barrera only drew with Pep, also controversially I might add.

ballacks to that... Barrera won more rounds, the only controversial thing is hwo the judges didn't give Barrera a points victory.

So, this is what someone throwing their toys out of the pram looks like?

Barrera has called out Gomez for week 7.

This is his one-and-only opportunity to put his broken oaths behind him and step up!
