i agree that tapia doesn't have the power to ko gerry. but tapia's agressive show boating style is tailor made for an elusive counter puncher like gerry, who has never lost to an attacking fighter. make mine gerry by ud or late rd ko.

Im guesing all of you guys are Pinoy's?
Penalosa was champion for like a year and never beat anyone of any worth and no one who knows anything about boxing and can speak about him without an agenda would never even put him in the same breath as Tapia let alone pick him to beat Tapia maybe the greatest ever at 115.Comment

I'd like Penalosa to face JMM's kid brother Rafael. Both him and rafa love to trade and Jerry has power, has never been KO'ed, and could get lucky. I think he's got better defense but Rafa obviously has one of the strongest punches P4P, although I have seen him being hit often by lesser opponents. Maybe Jerry has a chance on this one and it would be a big catch indeed if he succeeds.Comment

My god talk about delusional fans.
Penalosa is 72 years old and has done nothing in years and not only are his fans calling for a title shot at Rafeal Marquez some are actually saying he would have a chance in that fight.Comment

LOL
C'mon Jose, dont' be too hard on them. It's their opinion and they're entitled to it just as you are with yours.
Do you agree that styles makes fights? If so, Rafa's style would fit nicely to Gerry's, don't you think?
Rafa - boxer/puncher
Gerry - counterpuncher
Both have KO power, although Rafa undoubtedly hits harder and is perhaps the hardest puncher in boxing today P4P. My point is, Gerry could catch Rafa with a perfectly-placed counterpunch.
I'm not saying Penalosa will beat Marquez, heck I'd like him to face either Martin Castillo or Kawashima @115...or, either aging WBC champ Veeraphol Sahaphrom or former TKO victim WBO champ Sor Vorapin @118.
Anything can happen in boxing. Peace.

Jerry would've outboxed Tapia and eaten him like a smoked Tilapia. Tapia was one of the most overrated boxers there ever was. He sure got many fooled including you with his braggadocio in the ring. He was just in the same league as Paulie Ayala. Both were made fodder for MAB in their old age. Pathetic.Originally posted by jose
