    I had 7-4-1 to PDL

    it was funny how deleon was running from a much smaller guy in the championship rounds

    Yea it was not a one sided fight. I dont blame the judges for giving it to deleon cuz there were couple of rounds where penalosa was on the defense for most of the rounds and deleon was the one doing all the punching.

    I mean how can you not give it to deleon even though most of his punches were block by penalosa. He was still the aggressor of the two. Penalosa is a good boxer but he tends to defend more than offense. If he just throws more punches he can win a lot of his fights. :good

    te fight was closer and more competetive than teh scorecard suggests. Gerry's a very good defensive fighter and hin punch combos are topnotch. wonder how he'll do if the juanma fight came through

    but you cannot deny that its true. i will try to watch it again but i think from round 5 up, de leon was running and pot shotting at gerry.

    and it sure made a lot of mexicans ashamed of what he did.:rofl:rofl:rofl

    The name of the game is hit and not get hit.

    while you may have a point there, you do imagine how funny it will look if godzilla was running away from winnie the pooh right?:hey

    there is no question that in boxing, the aim is to hit and stop your opponent before he does the same thing to you. :rofl

    The point is the fight with Ponce was a close match. And now he is coming up in weight to fight Juanma??? I don't good things happening in Penaloza's future!!!!!

    Lopez will have a much harder time against Gerry than he did the free-swinging Ponce. He may even get outboxed.

    Lopez is gonna have a lot of troubles with Penalosa. No doubt.

    Lopez' footwork and questionable speed is going to be shown up.

    IMO, the Fearless one won against DPDL.

    Gerry, I'm afraid, is biting more than he can chew with JuanMa though...
