Go to the G. Penalose Last fight thread there's a video of him and and some good comments about his style.

There is a highlight reel, designed to make him look good. It's not really accurate.

GP is a southpaw, so he's naturally slick, and he's more of a counterpuncher with OK pop.

If you watch that highlight reel, the first thing that should become obvious to you is that Martinez doesn't know how to fight a southpaw. He allowed GP to keep his lead foot on the outside, therefore allowing him to move in and out and set up the left hand (his power hand).

I hope that PDL knows to keep his left foot on the outside to make his straight right more effective and neutralize GP's left.

It'll be a good fight, for sure. Gerry P has been around for a while and he was a sparring partner of Manny Pac at one point. Gerry is a veteran and is getting older. The highlight reel was of his knockdowns of his opponent....but he pretty much dominated that whole fight. I have seen him fight before and he's got a good defense.

I think Oscar has him signed on as one of his fighters.
