Bad fight for Penalosa. I see Mares dominating. To much youth and speed
Bad fight for Penalosa. I see Mares dominating. To much youth and speed
Mares is very smart for how young he is, But Penalosa is a crafty one. As we saw in the Gonzalez fight, Gerry is slow enough to be outboxed nowadays. Mares is an absolute master at finding angles I'd have to say this is a huge step up for Mares, I don't know that he's ready yet honestly, he hasn't been in within anyone that has a plan b and Penalosa always has a plan B.
50/50 on this one for me.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
Yep Penalosa has troubles with quick boxers (specially if they're running away from him) but Mares never been with a boxer in Penalosa's caliber. Penalosa is old but he was still very impressive in his last fight against the tough Sor Vorapin and even stopped/TKO'ed the guy.
This fight reminds me of Genaro Hernandez-Floyd Mayweather. Hernandez had never been dominated and had never lost at 130. Until he met Mayweather. Now Mares ain't no Mayweather. And Penalosa isn't the fighter Hernandez was. But it's the way I see the fight playing out. Mares retiring the old veteran.
BIG i mean HUGE HUGE Step up for Mares. is this a done deal?
