Gerry "FEARLESS" Peñalosa tells JuanMa:"Be ready"

[the_PRODIGY]

To penalosa's credit i think he will make it out of the first half of the first round though....

I agree. I think he sees the 2nd minute before it all goes black for him.

You gotta be kidding me. Penalosa is too smart of a fighter to engage early. he has great defense and stupendous counterpunching. And correct me if I'm wrong, I think he hasn't hit the canvass in his entire career. It's no secret that Juanma probably packs the hardest punch p4p, but fans are overexaggerating and is delusional if they really think Penalosa is going out early.

Many wrote off Gerry Peñalosa in the Jhonny Gonzales fight and got the surprise in their lives when Peñalosa KO'ed J-Gonz with one punch to the liver...

I was so pissed when that happened, Gonzalez had built a nice lead and everything was going well. And then the cagey old slipped and landed a perfect liver shot, you could see Jhonny was unable to get full breaths.
Jhonny is my favorite fighter, and he did me proud, but credit where credit is due....................Penalosa caught him.

I favor JuanMa, but I don't really know how he'll handle the distance, and Penalosa will definately take him rounds.

J-Gonz need to be careful at all times... I like how he handled Izzy with those long jabs but he's a warrior... He's not afraid to engage...

Better for JuanMa to be careful at all times too...

Well Jhonny is 6-0 (5 KOs) since the Penalosa fight, so he's doing something right.

I want Penalosa to take this,but he needs one shot effect to keep Lopez honest & off.Gerry is alot of things but a rangy power hoitter is not one.It will be close quarters

i'm sure he's been down at least once but the one i remember was a flush kd and he won the fight in the end.

I was there live in Sacramento for that fight. Johnny was fighting scared against Penalosa from the very 1st rd. Although he's winning rounds, I thought he's winning slightly but I thought Penalosa was breaking him down. A lot of fans booing Johnny coz he's backing off the whole fight. I wasn't surprised when Gerrry KO him.

I was one of the very few who predicted a Peñalosa win over J-Gonz...

Juanma wins clear decision or by late stoppage.

Gerry is very tough so him going the distance wouldn't surprise me.
