Penalosa looking for Juanma Lopez!!!!!!!!!

[KananKrus]

I'd like to see that! Penalosa vs JuanMa Lopez. Gerry is getting up in age. He has but a few good fights left.

JuanMa can win this fight and solidify his bid for greatness! Especially if he knocks out Gerry Penalosa, and can claim to be the first to do so. It will be entertaining, I say Penalosa has even chances or slightly an underdog.

I read that Penelosa has already been offered the fight.

Should be a decent match, a perfect one to see how Lopez's stamina is at the very least. Penalosa is one of the hardest guys at the lower weights to land cleanly on. I look forward to this if it happens with great anticipation.

I read that Penelosa has already been offered the fight.

I think Penalosa's camp wanted more money, believing that the offer tendered was a way bit low for what they thought was fair market.

For as long as they don't go fighting somehwere else for a fraction of what is on the table, its all good and makes sense. You got to look out for the big payday, if it is a big fight.

Otherwise, he'd just go full time as a trainer. I understand he works in the capacity of a consultant/trainer for Nonito Donaire.

Yeah, love Gerry too. He is one effing magnificent boxer almost always handicapped by his short stature. Almost always gives up in length and makes up for it with superior tactics and ringsmanship.

In this match with JML, if it ever happens, I am not sure if he is not to taste the best leather served by the most devastating puncher to date. If it lands, he better pray it knock him out, otherwise serious damage will be inflicted upon him by Lopez.

Juan Manuel is surely one famished fighter for “trophy” wins!

i think lopez will be to much for penalosa

true this, but i think he still intends to stay in the fight game while he trains Nonito.. who just fired his father as his triainer..

they have all had enough fights to know how to train and manage their bodies right so penalosa and nonito training along side eachother is a fine enough idea

his bid for greatness?!? gettin a little ahead of yourself there don't you think? IMO Cotto is a far superior fighter than Lopez and Calderon is the most technically gifted of the 3 and neither one has proven themselves as greats yet, the closest one is Calderon and that's because even at his age of 30+ he schools dudes a good 8 to 10 yrs younger than him, and although he doesn't have much power he's fast as fuck for his age, should be a p4p pick but for lack of attention or sadly enough interest in his division, he doesn't get the credit he deserves
