By Dan Ambrose: 34-year-old former two time world title challenger Alfonso Gomez (25-6-2, 12 KOs) kept his career alive on Friday night in defeating #12 WBC, #12 WBO, #15 IBF welterweight contender Yoshihiro Kamegai (25-3-1, 22 KOs) by a 10 round unanimous decision at the Fantasy Springs Report Casino in Indio, California.
The final judges’ scores were 98-91, 98-91 and 98-91. Those scores were a little off though, because Gomez gassed out badly in the last three rounds and clearly lost those rounds unless you want to count holding and running as winning rounds.
