Don't know enough about jhonny to really comment other than I think he got unlucky in his fight with penelosa since if I remember right he was dominating him and penelosa landed that beatiful body shot on gonzalez. Seems to be somewhat to nervous in there he seems to do bobing and weaving without a purpose behind it really in his case.for the finish dam nice double hook to the body/head , and he's definitely got a killer instinct that guy wasn't getting out of the round.

He gave Izzy a hell of a fight too. One things for Jhonny is young enough and stays busy enough to keep coming back over and over.

Wow I just looked at his boxrec and he's had 5 fights since the penalosa fight so he dam sure is keeping busy!

That's one of the main reasons I like him, he takes a loss and gets right back up and stays more busy.

Jhonny's a handful for anyone, I've heard talk of prospects being moved up against him which is risky as hell, he was controlling Izzy for a while much more than Rafa ever did. He's just got to hold it together for 12 rounds.

Agreed, he chose poorly in his workrate against Vazquez, definately a good learning experience, but 2 KDs against Vazquez are something to be proud of. I know this much Jhonny is the last gatekeeper I'd want to meet at 118, 122 or 126.
