penalosa is old but he's about the same age as winky and has been active while winky had been in a long layoff.
phillips is even older than both.
juanma looks spectacular.
juanma look better, but penalosa was a smaller fighter moving up.
pwill moved up from 147 to 160 while winky has always been a 154 lber who has fought at 160+ late in his career.
But remember before the Wright fight, Williams last two fights were at 154 and 160, and Winky was coming from a long layoff were Penalosa was still boxing.
Gerry had only fought at 122 once before I think, but Winky was comin off a long lay off also.
Both were great wins but I'll give the slight edge to Juanma for getting the stoppage.
Which fighter looked better? Williams against Winky or Juanma vs. Penalosa?

i say juanma, because winky was a stationary target and not slick at all, a good counter puncher, but easy to tee off on. whereas penalosa is a slick fighter who is hard to hit. penalosa has never been down and never stopped and he was forced to quit.
i think that is more impressive and more dominant. stopping penalosa or making him quit, i would equate it to someone stopping james toney, or steve forbes, slick guys with granite chins..................... junama stopped a guy on those guys level........ that is impressive.
