Wilfredo was an unusually skilled master at staying just out of range, and, causing the opponent to miss landing anything. He had superbly excellent footwork and leg movement. Gomez appears to have began to overpower Mesa by the 4th-5th rounds. The referee stopped it correctly.
He was a skilled fighter and had all the abilities you described. However, he encountered an all-time great who destroyed him. By the time he faced Azumah Nelson, he was merely a shadow of his former self.
La verdad aquí se ve la diferencia entre un grandísimo y excepcional boxeador como Wuilfredo y un buen boxeador a secas como Meza. Saludos a Puerto Rico desde Cd de México
Gomez was such a master-which tells you how exceptional Sanchez was. Look at how Gomez kept Meza out of punching range for most of this fight, yet still found ways to wear Mesa out with body punches. An amazing radar and a stand out in his time.
Wilfredo Gomez was voted the greatest Bantamweight of all time. Great fight who only loss three fights and two of them were to the great one Salvador Sanchez and to the professor Azumah Nelson.
Wilfredo Gómez, hizo sus inicios de su carrera en Panamá, hasta tuvo una hija panameña, aprendió mucho del estilo panameño. Buen campeón, y de manera irónica un panameño le quitó el título ligero Junior, Alfredo Layne ( qepd). Grande Gómez...

The Contender, Juan Mesa, would have knocked out 98% of all the lighter weight ranked boxers in the last four decades. This is to attempt to define the staggering Greatness of Wilfredo Gomez.
If there ever was a division that was perfect for a fighter, it was the junior featherweight for Gomez. He was just too small for the featherweight division and didn’t carry much power when he fought there. I honestly think that if could have made his weight and kept his dedication, Gomez could have been champ in this division until the 1990’s.
Patrick Verona I agree in that the vision he might be the best puncherr of all time if not in the top three. I would have loved to watch Gomez vs Hamed in their primes at 122lbs. That would be a dream fight!
He was a bit too agressive w the machismo so when he moved up getting hit too much didn't work. In the low weights he could take a good shot and his offense which was great, worked
@@jonbathurst953 It was his style bro. At his best he always took his time at the start of a fight, then when he buzzed his opponent, he took the fight to the inside to wear him down & finish him off. He was a little too impatient against Sanchez the way he followed Sanchez into the ropes & got caught in the 1st round. Not sure why Gomez was in such a rush in that one.... You're right about his offense - it was something else.
Prácticamente acabo con cuánto Mexicano le ponían enfrente y no se ve que le simpatizaran mucho pues casi nunca saludo a ninguno después de derrotarlos ,solo el Inmenso Salvador lo derrotó
Lo mejor que le pudo pasar a Comez fue que esa revancha no se diera, por qué si en la primera lo dejo inconsible en la segundo uviera mandado al retiro, por qué en esa palea Sachez ledio los golpe que nunca en todas su Carrera no le dieron
GOMEZ CERTAINLY DIDN'T HAVE THE DEFENSIVE SKILLS OF BENITEZ, COTTO OR TRINIDAD. I GUESS IT WAS BECAUSE HE RELIED TOO MUCH ON HIS KNOCK OUT PUNCHING ABILITY. UP TO THIS FIGHT 32 CONSECUTIVE KNOCKOUTS OF THE 34 HE HAD AT THIS POINT.
Así es esa pelea estuvo mal parada más bien sabían ke Gómez podía perder de un buen golpe porque si le entraban muchos eso se lo dije en vida al Kid pero acaba de fallecer supieron cuidar a Gómez en esta pelea que no se hagan pendejos
en nuestra familia Meza ....nunca se aclaro si Kid Meza si era familiar de nosotros !!!!!.............solo se hablaba de que familia de nosotros muchos Meza eran de los Angeles !! pero por el apehido siempre lo llegamos a apoyar !!!!!!...............
Los dos ,muy buenos boxeadores ,pero a mi paisano Meza le faltaba cincronisacion , parecía un poste . , y Gomez con sus marruyerias como siempre ,en fin , eso fue istoria DEP WILFREDO GOMEZ ,
No era en realidad noqueado mas bien tenía mucha condición física atosigaba a los rivales a pesar de que ganaba siempre salía más lastimado que sus rivales del rostro
Yo soy mexicano conosco el boxeo Wilfredo Gómez fue un peleador bien marrano con los codazos golpes bajos era un peleador maruyero muy hocico Sánchez le dió 2 pálidas nomás le faltó la j c chavez

Gomez vs Ruben Olivares at 122 would be a dream fight
In sum... if you weren't one of the very elite fighters like Sanchez and Nelson, this is what a very elite fighter like Gomez would do to you.
quality of your fights are excellent . Are you able to place ads on your videos?

This is amazing
Buena pelea de Wilfrido Gomez
Prácticamente acabo con cuánto Mexicano le ponían enfrente y no se ve que le simpatizaran mucho pues casi nunca saludo a ninguno después de derrotarlos ,solo el Inmenso Salvador lo derrotó
Prácticamente salvador Sánchez le dió 2 pálidas lo dejo loco para siempre le faltó la pálida de julio cesar. Chavez el padre de los puerto riquenos
A Wilfrido Gómez julio cesar chavez en 6 raun lo viera noquedo
Vaya Puerto Rico
Meza's chin is unbelievable, how he didn't go down I have no idea
Gomez, one of the greats without any doubt. Shame he didnt get a rematch with the great Sanchez.
Lo mejor que le pudo pasar a Comez fue que esa revancha no se diera, por qué si en la primera lo dejo inconsible en la segundo uviera mandado al retiro, por qué en esa palea Sachez ledio los golpe que nunca en todas su Carrera no le dieron
En la revancha, el aguila invensible(Sal Sanchez,. le daria otra golpiza, por suerte para Gomez, no se dio.
El mejor boxeador mundial en las 122 libras que dio Puerto Rico😮
17連続ノックアウト防衛はすごい。
Gomez fought likenduran in this fight
Panamanian style,no wonder.
MEZA IS FROM MY HOMETOWN
GOMEZ CERTAINLY DIDN'T HAVE THE DEFENSIVE SKILLS OF BENITEZ, COTTO OR TRINIDAD. I GUESS IT WAS BECAUSE HE RELIED TOO MUCH ON HIS KNOCK OUT PUNCHING ABILITY. UP TO THIS FIGHT 32 CONSECUTIVE KNOCKOUTS OF THE 34 HE HAD AT THIS POINT.
Dude..he got great head movement and footwork,wdym? He's not all power, he's one crafty berserker,like Duran.
Sin dudas el mejor en las 122 libras..
El mejor 122 libras de todos los tiempos
Kid meza orgullo cachanilla
ayer estuve con kid meza platicando sobre esa pelea ...
Let's talk about fighting with Samart. He's like a child.
mal parada
Meza ni se quejo
He was going to get hurt
Así es esa pelea estuvo mal parada más bien sabían ke Gómez podía perder de un buen golpe porque si le entraban muchos eso se lo dije en vida al Kid pero acaba de fallecer supieron cuidar a Gómez en esta pelea que no se hagan pendejos
IT'S SO HARD TO WATCH A GOMEZ FIGHT WITH JUST KEITH JACKSON AND NO ONE ELSE AS COLOR COMMENTATOR. IT'S JUST LIFELESS AND COLORLESS.
en nuestra familia Meza ....nunca se aclaro si Kid Meza si era familiar de nosotros !!!!!.............solo se hablaba de que familia de nosotros muchos Meza eran de los Angeles !! pero por el apehido siempre lo llegamos a apoyar !!!!!!...............
Estoy viendo este video porque hoy anunciaron la muerte de Meza en Mexicali descanse en paz

No era en realidad noqueado mas bien tenía mucha condición física atosigaba a los rivales a pesar de que ganaba siempre salía más lastimado que sus rivales del rostro
Why would he ask for Sanchez again ❓ he wasn’t in Sanchez’s league woulda got killed again 🤷♂️
Never
Porque julio cesar chaves no pelea otra vezcon oscar de la hoya.
Gomez was partying and doing drugs like an idiot. If he was more dedicated in the rematch it would be a lot harder for Sanchez. Maybe even a draw.
Yeah gomez shouldn't have moved up in weight he was dominate in his division
Yo soy mexicano conosco el boxeo Wilfredo Gómez fue un peleador bien marrano con los codazos golpes bajos era un peleador maruyero muy hocico Sánchez le dió 2 pálidas nomás le faltó la j c chavez
