Is gerry Penalosa getting undeserved attention for his KO of Gonzales?

[miron_lang]

same type of bodyshot. lucky punch punch my ass. ya'll underestimating gerry clearly has no track of world boxing and only knows the US scene.

I think this was in Korea. Gerry suffered the only KD of his career in this fight.

I'm sure he has a good body attack, but that's never really worked against Jhonny. Mostly, his chin has been checked a couple of times. Gerry's knocked people out with a chin shot. So, why didn't he go for that, too? I'm sure he looked for the opening. But when you're getting outworked and outboxed, and you land one shot that ends the fight for you, LUCK is involved. Unless his game plan was to block shots with his face for close to a handful of rounds, then land ONE PERFECTLY AIMED BODY SHOT. Unrealistic.

whatta an ignorant ****er you are. Its Luck because you're rootin for the other fighter. The main objective is to land that body shot so if you consider iit luck when it landed you're defeinately an idiot.

Penalosa = lucky bum overrated by the pinoys who dont know **** about boxing

This pretty much proves you don't know anything about boxing as much as you think you do. Penalosa is a very decent fighter. Why else would GPB pick him? Just watch Penalosa fight and ask yiourself. Unless you're just to racially biased to give the man props coz he's from the Philippines.

I didn't know Penalosa was ever dropped. What punch dropped him miron_...? Where did it land?

[grayfist]

I think Penalosa went to Korea only thrice... Two times to face In Joo Choo. He lost by Split decision on both occassions: he lost his WBC belt in the first and failed to regain the championship in the second.

The third time (actually the first of the three trips to South Korea), was to take on Young Joo Choo, whom he KO'd in the 10th.

In Joo Choo only has less than half of his wins by stoppage. Young was the bigger puncher. He had 9 of his 11 wins by KO. Was it Young who KD'd Penalosa?
