can't catch a break.

[giacomino]

was a bull**** defense anyway

why isnt he unifying? the old man could probably clean out his division

[THe TRiNiTY]

I think Penalosa should either try to unify on the biggest stage that he can, or just forget it. He's at that point that his old ass can't waste time.

A rematch with Ponce would have been good, but that's now out of the question. He's like one of the last Filipinos left standing.

Honestly, that's still a good fight for the smaller, softer punching Penalosa. It still has appeal to an extent. Not as much as it once had, but still enough.

he should fight johnny g again

He's gotten a phobia fighting against Japanese, and has developed a fetish for Mexicans.
