I always had the lowest opinion of Gomez. He looks slow, he never moved his head, he telegraphed his punches. In the past few years, he's been pretty good though. Aside from the Cotto drubbing, he's pretty much kicked everyone's ass that they put in front of him. The Karass win was pretty impressive, but alot of those other guys were shot or stiffs (Gatti, Tackie), and that is exactly what's in front of him again this week. His management team does an awesome job of getting him on TV in high profile spots against opposition he can look really good against. I expect him to destroy Castillo, and I'll be shocked if he doesn't.

And Soto is one of the most underrated guys around. He lost a few fights as a teenager in Mexico, but in the past five or six years he's been a really good fighter. That DQ loss was BS and his other loss was to Guzman in a boring fight where Guzman basically ran the whole second half. This is a rare fight where both guys fought the same guy in their last fight. Soto beat Chavez up, while Diaz had a tough fight with him. I'm not confident that Soto will stop Diaz, but I am confident that he beats him. And it won't be close.

Got to agree with you guys here.. I know it's the obvious.
Castillo when he fought Hatton, came for a paycheck and became a disgrace for boxing.
David Diaz is washed up, he isn't a pure "BUM" but he is severely outclassed here against a very under rated Soto.
So Gomez and Soto..
The fight I want to see if John Duddy.. would anyone have enough balls to lay 5 to 1 with Duddy .. and that defense?
Great thing about John Duddy no matter who you throw in they hit him clean.
Good luck to anyone laying 5/1 on HIM LOL!
Let's hope we get some good fights, I think Diaz will do well for himself he just will be too slow, and too over matched.. but he will give it his ALL.
Castillo I expect to give a few good rounds at best and then tank badly as each round goes by.
GL everyone!

Actually Medina is a guhreeeat value.When Duddy fought Lyell last year I almost put 25-50 bucks on Lyell cuz he was like +1000 to +1500. I thought it was on a different night and missed the bet. Duddy was like -2000 that night.

LOL sorry but my friend sent me a text he said I put $50 on Clottey and $150 on Castillo. I told him he took a guy with a name "Terrible" on his trunks.
Sad when people bet on fighters based from OLD fights like when Castillo fought Mayweather and Corrales(R.I.P)
He got one last pay check, goodbye Castillo.
