Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2015-03-20, nice toe-to-toe fight between Alfonso Gomez and Yoshihiro Kamegai: it gets three stars and it is a candidate for the best boxing fight of the week!Alfonso Gomez entered this fight with a pro boxing record of 24-6-2 (12 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.34 super welterweight in the world. He lost two consecutive bouts between 2011 and 2012, against Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez (fight valid for the Wbc super-Ww title, Alvarez vs Gomez) and Shawn Porter (=Porter vs Gomez); since then he has fought just once beating Ed Paredes last year.
His opponent, Yoshihiro Kamegai, has a record of 25-2-1 (22 KOs=88%) and he entered as the No.39 welterweight; he defeated Jung-Hoon Yang and Oscar Godoy in 2014 but between these two fights he lost to Robert Guerrero (=Guerrero vs Kamegai). Gomez vs Kamegai is the main event of the evening. Watch the video and rate this fight!
Review: 2011-09-17, in the first round Saul “Canelo” Alvarez knocks down Gomez but from the second round the fight become very balanced. In fact at the beginning of the sixth Lederman scores a draw (47-47) but in the same round, during a nice and powerful combination of Alvarez, the referee stops the fight (probably too quickly). Saul Alvarez defeated Alfonso Gomez by TKO defending his WBC light middleweight title. Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (37-0-1) entered as the No.4 light middleweight in the world while Alfonso Gomez (23-4-2) entered as the No.13. Watch the video!
