Eusebio Pedroza vs. Wilfredo Gomez

Rafael · 04-27-2006, 06:48 PM

I have heard stories that Gomez received similar offers to move up in weight and fight either Sanchez or Pedroza, and he considered Sanchez a safer opponent (given his relative youth and inexperience). Of course we all know what happened. Do you think Bazooka suffers a similar fate against Pedroza circa 1981-1982? Or does he knock off the crafty Panamanian? As a side question, who would be dirtier guy in this fight?!

I will have to cogitate for a while as to who would win - interesting match up, by the way - but unquestionabbly it would be Gomez who would be the dirtier fighter.
In his own way compared to Gomez, Pedroza was less blatant. I think that as the fight went on & Pedroza kept using those educated elblows etc., Gomez would have flipped out & who knows what would have happened?

Yeah, I shudder to think what Wilfredo would do upon getting hit with one of those sneaky bolos to the cojones more than once.

This fight should have been made in 84. would have went back and forth just like chacon-limon final fight. winner Gomez late round TKO

Gomez would start out the fight could, but Pedroza would get him late, around the 8th or 10th round, with stoppage.
