    I think you are the melodramatic here. I just pointed out the irony and we wouldn't even have this conversation if you didn't ask back "no disrespect??? :blood"

    I guess I'm struggling to see the irony :huh Penalosa was actually an incredible defensive fighter who was very hard to hit during his prime. Non-comparable to the plodding Margarito.

    We need the original quote in Tagalog before you guys bash each other to bits.

    The sports page guys love to tweak quotes to make it read more interestingly, have better headlines, and sell more copies.

    Yet he turned out to be a punching bag and calls Margarito one, that's the ****ing irony. Why do YOU get melodramatic about me pointing out the obvious? I like Penalosa, but he shouldn't call another fighter a punching bag, unless he wanna be called one. It's fair, no? (last post here)

    It's possible that something got lost in translation. Doesn't seem like Gerry to intentionally disrespect another fighter, and irrespective of what BigBone thinks, I don't think that's what he is doing here.

    Its called the catchweight division because he only fights at catchweights.

    He has created his own Division Jr. Pacweight, any weight other than the original weight classes.
