    Default Penalosa - Another Cinderalla Man

    After 10 years and past his prime, Gerry "Fearless" Penalosa again is a world Champion from a perfectly timed body shot to Johnny Gonzales. Nobody gave him a chance but veterans prove time and again that they always have something up their sleeves(gloves for that matter).

    Gerry semi-retired when his father died who's also a fighter as well as his brother Dodie Boy Penalosa(Only World Champ who was a Polio victim). And after failed attempts at the belt a couple of times he again is one of the champs Congratulations Gerry, 2 or 3 more fights then call it quits.

    Gerry Penelosa is a warrior. All of his losses are questionable and were close and he just keeps coming. Very skilled,tremendously tough,a superb fighter. I really like him and hope he does well in the future,there are some great match ups to be made for him.

    I like Penalosa's dedication to boxing. Many were doubtful of his ability to come back. Well, Gerry proved them wrong. Congrats Gerry.

    Agree. Did you know that he actually had polio when he was young? One leg is actually smaller than the other.

    Philippines and Mexico are like long lost relatives. If we are going to trace back history, the Philippines and Mexico are like brothers during the Spanish colonization. The two countries are also greatly influenced by the US.

    Both countries have people with great courage. No wonder, the two countries excel in boxing.

    hey mick i was wondering where you were man. I was rooting for gerry no doubt but I thought jonny would of won.

    Both gerry and de leon prove me wrong last night, good win for both of them. Remember our debate about boom boom and de leon, i was backing up boom boom endlessly but I was mentioning how I didn't like goldenby for sending him against someone dangerous like de leon at this age. Although philippines won the cup, De Leon destroyed the philippines baby boy bautista before he can grow into a beast. Great 1 round stoppage for de leon. I hope he rematch Caballero and knocks him out, I really don't like Caballero's style.
