Yoelvis Gomez (born 24 September 1997) is a Cuban professional boxer who currently competes in the middleweight division.

Amateur career

Gomez was inspired to box by his father Jose Gomez Mustelier who was also a fighter. He had a prolific amateur record of 207 wins and 35 losses.[1]

Professional career

Gomez vs Cota

After needing just 7 rounds to win the first 5 fights of his career Gomez was forced to go the distance for the first time against former contender Jorge Cota. Despite not getting a stoppage Gomez won every round on all three judges scorecards. The only good shot Cota landed was on the referee in round four.[2]

Gomez vs Taylor

Gomez suffered a huge upset against American Marquis Taylor. Despite being a heavy favourite and causing a cut above the eye of Taylor early on, Gomez was dropped in the second round and lost on all three judges scorecards.[3]
