An excellent fighter, but not HoF worthy for me.

[gilgamesh]

No

No Record, No Hall.

[Techno89]

Hard to say without his record.
I'm saying NO

[Crease]

For exactly the same reason that I gave Joe Calzaghe, I can't vote Gomez in;

We at Don Krease Productions always prefer to vote 1 fighter in to the HOF per season, it makes the Hall all the more difficult to get in to.
With that said, we are looking at RJJ & Evander as the top 2 candidates...

NO from me.

[armageto]

I'll say no due to lack of record.

[Crease]

I'll say no due to lack of record.

It's a problem, definitely a problem...

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

From what I've gathered from his fights with guys whose records are there he has had a good season. Saying that, really the only difference between his season and Ward's is that JCG was luckier with the judges and didn't fight Holyfield, Calzaghe and RJJ as many times. So it was a good season, but not a HOF season AFAIC.

[Crease]

There were 10 Managers last season.

6 of us have now voted NO - so even if the rest vote otherwise, the majority rules - so Mr Gomez will not be entering The Hall on this occasion.

[Fist of Legend]

wow, not even one yes vote, Gomez won more championships than anybody and beat Holyfield and Roy Jones Jr.

[BoxBuzz]

I vote yes....Which should more than make up for the naysayers.

The vote is now closed

The majority vote NO
