Philboxing.com would like to congratulate Golden Boy Promotions vice-president and international matchmaker Eric Gomez and wife Cristina for their newborn baby boy Christian Leonardo Gomez, who was born last February 4, which was also the 35th birthday of boxing superstar Oscar De la Hoya.
Christian Leonardo, the second child for the beautiful Gomez couple, weighed in at 8.2 lbs upon birth and was measured at 19 inches.
"We had a healthy, natural birth. I guess God works in mysterious ways," said Gomez in a message to Philboxing.com today.
Cristina, who reads Philboxing.com especially when her husband is visiting the Philippines, is a big boxing fan just like her namesake Christine Aldeguer, with whom she hit if off immediately during a recent dinner in Las Vegas between the Gomezes and the Aldeguers.
