[@Alex-cw3rz]

His 4 loses were all to Hall of Fame boxers, just showing the level he was at even when he retired.

[@vencejito]

Taking in count that he was robbed against Pintor

[@HaraDuran]

-arguable loss vs Pintor -arguable technical decision vs Jeff Fenech -was sick vs Gomez The only time he loses convincingly without any circumstances behind is the Zaragoza fight,yet in that fight he's already slipping out of his prime.

[@bola5671]

7:50 was probably the most beautiful thing I've seen in boxing. The guy hit an opponent and immediately jumped to help the guy from suffering further damage by falling off the ring

[@willromez]

The lower the weight class the bigger difference there is between durability and power making KO artists at lower weight classes seem more impressive than those at higher weights classes. Carlos fighting at 118 and putting everyone in stretchers makes him really special

[@benjaminphipps8325]

I really like your book, “Aggressive Defense”. I’m a kickboxer and it helped me build a long guard that really works well for me.

[@nickbeef4824]

Brilliant analysis.

[@gragrn]

I had the pleasure of seeing him fight live once, in Sydney against Jeff Fenech. It had a disappointing ending, being stopped on a cut to Jeff from an accidental headbutt, but it was still great to see two legends from different eras fight each other. I believe Carlos was 39 at the time, and making a comeback.

[@pavlovsdogman]

Both guys were legends and both were not given the respect they deserved in America!

[@serenityinside1]

@@pavlovsdogmanwell .. that’s America 🙄

[@theparalexview785]

Great analysis. Zarate and Zamora helped put the bantamweight division on TV back then, especially after Zarate easily demolished Zamora. Even I didn't expect that after Zamora KO'd Eusebio Pedroza. But unlike Zamora, whose career stalled, Pedroza shrugged off that loss, moved up to featherweight and had a long, dominant string of title defenses. Great era for boxing, and much of it was on TV if you were in range of Mexican broadcasters.

[@am2382]

He had a higher successful KO rate than the all-time greats 🤯

[@foxybingo1112]

Zarate was absolutely among the all time greats

[@GuardianNewtonTurner]

I feel like that makes him a part of that.

[@nomad2772]

He is an all time great

[@michaelh.117]

Thanks for shining a light on Zarate. He was one of my favorite fighters back in the '70s. His fight with Zamora (the Z Boys!) was a huge deal, like Crawford-Spence or Beterbiev-Bivol nowadays.

[@betoj3161]

Thank you very much!, one of the greatest legends in the history of Mexico!❤❤❤

Ik you’ve very busy with finishing off videos but if you could squeeze in a breakdown of Toney vs Mcallum 1 I would eternally grateful. If your unable too then I want to say thank you for all the high quality videos you’ve been pushing out over the years

[@GuilhermePereira-yf4sh]

My god, I was thinking so much about zarate and out of nowhere there was a video of him here, but anyway, great video of one of my favorite Boxers and now how about a video of Brazilian legend Éder Jofre?

[@psalmerperena4120]

Him and Mexico's Ruben Olivares both deserve a video of each of their own. The 2 greatest bantamweights ever. I'm surprised when people talk about the most durable chins in boxing, nobody talks about Jofre who was never stopped in his entire career.

[@00tntprice]

Carlos was one of the best punchers ever, good skills with Power is what everyone dreams of.

[@makoshark7122]

Jose Mendoza levels of power

[@nyquil762]

Awesome breakdown. Thank you.

[@conlan1015]

My comparison for him is like a taller version of Ricardo Lopez, since both are fundamentally sound and punch selection is kind of similar. I notice that a lot of Mexican boxer punchers are really good with their lefts especially how they set up the lead uppercut and left hook in combinations. It’s risky but the payoff is great

[@pavlovsdogman]

Lopez was just smaller, he was 105lbs soaking wet! Both were awesome and highly underrated! 🇲🇽

[@char-lee212]

[@JoelMarquina]

No es raro ver a un noqueador en categorías pesadas, pero que un peso gallo tenga la fuerza para tener más de un 90% de Ko es algo especial, el gran Cañas. La verdad me gustaba más cómo peleaba Zamora, pero esa pelea era garantia de cloroformo.

[@bh1422]

A common thread that weaves through all power punches is that they dont punch against an opponent but through them. The full range of motion of their arms maximizes power. Add the shoulder and hip rotation with speed and that power becomes exponential.

[@serenityinside1]

As js taught in , proper , karate .

I've been subscribed for a while now and fell in love with this channel, going through the Four Kings and even going further down a boxing rabbit hole that had me in love with the sport. Hell I followed the breakdown videos for Wilder V Fury II just before their rematch. I only just found out that a video was done about the Ward V Gatti trilogy and that video is four months old now. Either way, I've got some catching up to do and I recommend you press the bell if you haven't.

Fighters With the Most Knockouts in the History of Boxing The knockout is the crescendo of a boxer physcially, mentally, and emotionally dominating his opponent in the ring, and the spectacle of seeing one of the toughest guys in the world dropped to the mat with one punch never gets old. These boxers, who come from a variety of time periods and weight classes, epitomize the brutality of the knockout and still stand as some of the most dominant forces ever to step in a ring. Who Has the Most Knockouts in Boxing History? 1. Billy Bird: 138 2. Archie Moore: 132 3. Young Stribling: 129 4. Sam Langford: 128 5. Buck Smith: 120 Most fighters nowadays would be lucky to even get in the ring half as many times as these guys have knockouts. The first half of the 20th century, when the top four fighters spent most or all of their careers, was a strange time for boxing. That just means special congratulations are in order for Buck Smith, who fought from 1987 to 2009. Who Has the Most Knockouts in Heavyweight Boxing History? 1. Primo Carnera: 69 2. George Foreman: 68 3. Ezzard Charles: 58 4. Max Baer: 52 (Tie) 5. Wladimir Klitschko, Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis: 49 Among those who just missed the cut include Greg Page (48), Tommy Tucker (47) Mike Tyson (44), and Larry Holmes (44). Who Has the Highest Knockout Percentage in Boxing History? Two boxers have a knockout percentage of 100 percent with a sufficient number of fights: Edwin Valero was a perfect 27-0 with 27 KOs at lightweight, but his legacy was tarnished following his suicide after being named as a suspect in the murder of his wife. Active Russian light heavyweight Artur Beterbiev is 15-0 with 15 knockouts to date. Right behind both of them? Deontay Wilder, the one and only Bronze Bomber, with 42 wins, one draw, and 41 knockouts, good for a 95.3% knockout rate in 43 total career professional fights. Wilder is one of the few modern boxers on a select list of the most proficient knockout artists in boxing history, and his tale is still being written. A generation from now, the all-time list coud look a lot different. Go you see your boys name anywhere, because I do not.?

[@jrayner21679]

Gomez wasn’t a likable fighter in my opinion. He hit Zarate more than once when he was technically down and then after he’s got the best of a great champion (that moved up in weight btw) he rubs it in his face with his his celebration. There’s ways of celebrating that doesn’t disrespect your opponent or the sport. Some might say oh he was emotional and in the moment he just couldn’t help himself to which I say BULLSHIT. Boxing has been around since sports were invented. None of the great fighters at least that I respect ever celebrated like that All combat sports are emotional, I mean how can it not be?? These athletes put themselves through grueling training camps to basically beat the shit out of your body to make weight. They put their lives on the line to weigh a certain amount in order to be competitive. We don’t realize just how much work these guys put in until after they’re retired when we see their true walking around W8 which is usually astonishing. Gomez knew exactly what Zarate put himself through leading up to fights. Gomez‘s career and payday we’re in part because of Zarate’s willingness to take the fight. To me that grants respect and decency. My two cents.
