Gerry "FEARLESS" Peñalosa wants to fight JuanMa Lopez on Dec. 6 Hoya-PAC card

[XaduBoxer]

From a recent boxing article:

"The best fighter Keane is involved with, Penalosa, is not necessarily the easiest to deal with. The two-division champ turned down good money to face Abner Mares on the December 6th undercard, but he – get this – says he wants to fight WBO 122-pound title holder Juan Manuel Lopez.

God bless him! JuanMa is downright scary.

I think Penalosa would have a much better chance at defeating the still-green Mares, but major props must given to any veteran fighter who has the balls to call out the Puerto Rican puncher.

Hey, that’s a fight I’d love to see. If anyone can take Lopez the distance in a competitive fight, it’s Penalosa."


Woooo...

I am a big fan of Penalosa...This will be a good one

Gerry living up to his monicker... He has no fear in fighting bigger and taller boxers than him... He fought Daniel Ponce De Leon, Jhonny Gonzales and now he's calling out the young powerful puncher from Puerto Rico...

Hope Gerry gets this fight on the Dec. 6 Hoya-PAC card...

Penalosa would rather face the big punchers cuz it's easier to see there punches coming. At his age young fighters with great hand speed would dominate him. I knew he would find a way to avoid facing Mares. Hearing him turn down good money to face him is no surprise. He won't face Lopez easier.

I think Peñalosa is just returning the favor to Team Nacho Beristain... Gerry was calling out Rafael Marquez since November 2004 but Team Nacho didn't entertained him... Now one of Nacho's boys (Mares) trying to get a fight against Gerry but maybe he remembered how Team Nacho responded to his challenge to Rafa before...

Anyway, props to Peñalosa for seeking bigger challenges...

I don't think a veteran like Penalosa would turn down big money on the Dec 6th card just to get back at somebody. He's pretty much just hurting himself. I think Mares youth and like they said hand speed were most likely the reasons why
