Advice:
Have a maximum stakes wager on Saturday nights fight action where WBO Bantamweight Champion Jhonny Gonzalez (W34-L5-D0) takes on the former WBF Super Flyweight title holder "Fearless" Gerry Penalosa (W51-L6-D2) at the Acro Arena in Sacramento, California.

Gonzalez is on the crest of a wave right now after his 9th round stoppage of previously once beaten Colombian Irene Pacheco (W33-L2-D0) at the back-end of March.

Penalosa has never been stopped in a career spanning 59 fights and 18 years, a record that any modern-day fighter should be very proud to own.

The well traveled Philippine was convincingly out-pointed in his last outing by big hitting Mexican Daniel Ponce De Leon (W31-L1-D0), who coincidentally tops the bill on the same card as this fight. It is noted that Penalosa lost EVERY round on all three judges’ scorecards in that bout.

At 35 years of age and counting, Penalosa is in the very twilight of his career and cannot realistically hope to get anything out of Saturdays fight against a man ten years his junior, except a very large pay-check to put towards his looming retirement.

Although he may not be able to stop the rugged Philippine native, Gonzalez will be so far clear on the score-sheets he should be able to coast this one by the odd round or ten !!

Of the few sportsbooks that have managed to price this one up, Pinnacle Sports are by far the biggest on Gonzalez with their 1.216 quote. Bet365 are next best at a still fair looking 1.16. But probably nearer the mark is the 1.06 quote from experienced fight layers Stan James, who, like us think that Gonzalez is in for an easy ride...

Gonzalez is absolutely nailed-on in this one, and should take his opponent apart over the maximum distance for a wide-margin point’s verdict.

With these factors in mind it is advised for all subscribers to have a maximum stakes wager ($750) at the 1.216 at Pinnacle Sports to scoop a cool $162 profit.
