Andy Cruz Analysis: Looking to make a statement

He’s been training with Derek Ennis and is now based in Miami after signing a 3 year contract with Matchroom Boxing. While he has great speed, ring intelligence, and a solid jab, he’s not really known for having the hardest punches (mainly due to his wingspan). So far, Cruz has a professional record of 4 wins and 0 losses, with 2 of those wins by knockout.
- Standing at 5’9” tall with a reach of 68.5”, he is a bit smaller than usual but makes up for it with great speed.
- Cruz started his professional journey training alongside Ennis and his son Jaron, who is the current interim IBF Welterweight champion.
Omar Salcido Analysis: Hoping to stop the speedster
Gamez is only 25 years old and has a record of 20 wins and 1 loss. With 14 of those wins coming by knockout. He fights out of Lakeside and turned professional in 2018 as a teenager. Since then, he has gained 93 rounds of experience. Standing at 5 feet 7 inches tall, he is two inches shorter than Cruz, and his reach isn’t listed. Gamez has impressive power, with 70% of his victories coming from stoppages.
- Rewinding back into his last 3 fights, he has gone the full distance twice after previously stopping his last 5 rivals.
- His only loss was to Jose Nunez 2 years ago, where he lost by unanimous decision after a tiring 10 sets.
Salcido might be younger than Cruz, however the Cuban has showcased more speed and energy. With our boxing picks suggesting that will be his key in this bout.
