On April 4 is the date that the powerful television network HBO offered to mount the expected battle between the world champion of the Puerto Rican 122-pound version of the OMB, Juan Manuel Lopez, to the Filipino champion and current of 118 pounds , Gerry Penalosa. This would be the third defense of the Puerto Rican monarch, who also plans this year during the summer unificatoria a fight to the champion of the CMB, the Mexican Israel Vazquez. "Peñalosa is the first 'choice' (option) to fight with Juanma, and decides to increase Peñalosa division Morel (Eric) would have to find another fighter. And Fernando Montiel, and will climb to 118 pounds and is the 115 champion, put it in the highest position Morel and would fight with him, "said local promoter Peter Rivera, confirming that the outlook was weighted a few weeks ago.
Will they have Penalosa at gunpoint before the fight making him say he will go down when Lopez huffs and puffs?
The split proposal they made was insulting for a guy like Penalosa. It was something like JML 300,000 and Penalosa 50,000, JML isnt that big of a star yet it should be 30-70. Manuel Medina made 30,000 for doing nothing and is a nobody. Give Penalosa some credit hes accomplished and a good name to have on any resume.
Lopez KO1 Medina. Median:''They threatened me with a gun,if I don't go down in the first they will kill me''.
dudeI dont know where the hell you been but medina stated he was lying...Trust me lopez needs no extra help to k.o. anyone...Medina got shook and that the bottom line...Guys like Medina should find work elsewhere not boxing...:deal
im glad to know you were there to hear that convo...You must read the inquirer and watch all the oprah channels...lmao
