I'd go with Penalosa now, but it's easy to say that because his prime is completed and Mares' may not have even began yet. I do think Mares will EVENTUALLY be better, however.
agree....
gerry was a technical fighter...
with a very big fighting heart..
his desire to comeback from a loss was very noteworthy

I saw the fight. He lost it by not being active while deleon threw like a hundred punches per round. A hall of famer? You must be kidding.
most of his punches landed in the air and on Penalosa's gloves..bet you think williams won the lara fight didn't you..his record speaks for himself..all of his loses are controversial except the lopez fight..maybe not a first ballot HOF but he deserves to be a HOF in the future..,
He was getting schooled by gonzalez landed a punch out of desperation to the body you dum piece of sht. Penolosa is a bum who lost to ponce.
watch the ponce fight..he got robbed..peñalosa is a future hall of famer..something ponce and gonzalez will never achieve
Please , Prime penalosa dodged Vasquez and Marquez. And then after winning the title from Gonzales he hide in the phippines till they stripped him of it.
Don't bring him up now as if it would be any different.
more like they dodged him..he was stripped because he wanted to fight Lopez..the one that made Marquez quit..
Penalosa by murder. Actually, he dominates Mares and makes a fool out of him with his clever boxing. He could also stop him in the long run, Gerry had a decent punch. Remember his ko of Gonzalez? He scored 37 kos in 55 wins.
