Fighter Matchups & Styles
- Jaycob Bradley “Baki” Gomez Zayas: 24 years old, 5′ 8″ (173 cm), southpaw. Caguas, Puerto Rico native/resident. Technical southpaw with sharp counter-punching, good footwork, and solid power (8 KOs). Has shown durability and boxing IQ against regional opposition; the draw on his record came early in his career.
- Corey “Too Smooth” Marksman: 25 years old, 5′ 9″ (175 cm), orthodox. Sanford/Orlando, Florida native (fights out of Evolution Boxing Gym). Slick orthodox counter-puncher with genuine pop (75% KO rate in wins) and excellent hand speed. Strong local following and experience in deeper fights against undefeated or seasoned foes.
Tale of the Tape edge: Slight reach/height to Marksman; southpaw vs. orthodox dynamic favors Gomez’s angles if he controls distance. Marksman’s home-crowd energy and finishing rate give him the stylistic nod in close quarters.
