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!

Gomez did an excellent fight in front of a rival with reach advantage and much stronger and younger than him. Gomez was capable to show that he is a very good technical fighter despite the fact of his present records.
