Peņalosa challenges Rafael Marquez

[mr. bojangles]

Peņalosa doesnt have enough power or technical ability to beat Rafael Marquez. One uppercut from this guy could put Gerry in the hospital.

One-punch KOs of Hurtado and the current WBO bantamweight champ isn't enough power? How 'bout that body shot he gave then WBC supafly champ Kawashima? The neat boxing & counterpunching lesson he gave Polo Saucedo wasn't technical enough?

He had style match-up problems with sleek boxers who moves a lot, that's it.

A clean shot from Rafa could send Gerry to the hospital - that I can agree.

Yeah, Rafa's style is perfect fit for the slugger/counterpuncher Gerry Penalosa. BUT Rafa is waaay too BIG for Penalosa, at fight time vs. Pastrana, Rafa weighed in at a whopping 132 lbs!

I say he takes on ex-WBC flyweight champ Chartchai Sasakul as a warm-up for a possible showdown with ex-victim and current WBO bantam champ Sor Vorapin. Forget WBC Veeraphol Sahaphrom he's been overly protected, his team is aiming for a bantam record of 20 title defenses (he's at #14 now).

Marquez by KO.

Gerry is hoping to get his retirement pay.

[JOM'S]

wooot!!! RAFA is OLD now at 31 ... but Gerry is older ... lol

Gerrys last fight although a WAR and FOY type of a fight, it was not impressive victory...

Gerry has to DO A LOT MORE against RAFA, like many I am not too optimistic on his chances, but he has to do whatever must be done...

Go Gerry Go!! Its NOW or NEVER!!
