tony penecale’s Box Fan Expo Ringside report
De: Tony Penecale
Quick video intro here:
https://www.facebook.com/TornadoTP/videos/10156003723726436/
Last weekend’s middleweight title showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Daniel Jacobs also featured the annual Box Fan Expo, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The amazing memorabilia on display and live amateur boxing action complemented an array of past and present world champion fighters available for quick meet and greets.
As a lifelong boxing fan, it was a shame that I only had a little over two hours to spend at the event before heading back to the T-Mobile Arena for the start of the undercard bouts. The time I was able to spend was thoroughly enjoyable. The prices were reasonable to meet these fistic legends and have a few moments to talk and take photos. The average $20 -$25 price for a photo op was significantly less than what would have been lost at the casino in a single roulette spin.
James Toney was there in a suit, proving that he can even make plaid look stylish. For a guy known for a surly nature, he was very accommodating and mentioned he will be in Philadelphia for a live show on June 7 and hopes to see me there.
In the booth next over was Hall-of-Fame broadcaster Al Berstein, who I had the privilege of interviewing in 2011. When told of my admiration of his classy work and being a fan since his days with Barry Tompkins on ESPN’s Thursday Night Fights, he was humble and appreciative.
The line to meet Roy Jones Jr. was long but worth the wait. While the time to talk with Roy was short, I was able to mention what an honor it was to meet one of the greatest performers of my generation and how I sat only a few feet from him when he was on the Creed II set.
While the line to meet the legendary Sugar Ray Leonard was exceptionally long, you could see he was truly enjoying himself, flashing that million-dollar smile and doing his famous fists-raised photo op with fans. Unfortunately, with time running short, I did not have the opportunity to meet one of my favorite fighters growing up. I would have loved to have shown him a photo when I was four-years-old, swinging away on the Sugar Ray Leonard punching bag I was given.
A few feet away was one of Sugar Ray’s most-famous rivals, the great Thomas “Hitman” Hearns. While the Hitman has shown some slowing as he has aged, he still proves to be an imposing figure, but he now replaces that fearsome glare with a warm smile.
Also coming up to meet Thomas Hearns was current IBF Super-Featherweight Champion Tevin Farmer, a fellow Philadelphian, who I’ve had the opportunity to watch grow from a 7-4-1 journeyman boxer to a 29-4-1 Monda ĉampiono.
My visit wouldn’t be complete without stopping to see “The Pazmanian Devil” Vinny Paz, always one of my favorite action fighters and charismatic personalities. Instead of a handshake, he greeted me with a big hug and expressed disappointment that my dad didn’t join me at the expo.
In the short time frame, it was impossible to meet all of the great fighters there including Michael Spinks, Riddick Bowe, Errol Spence, Anthony Dirrell, and Earnie Shavers. With it being Cinco de Mayo weekend, the lines for some of the Mexican legends wrapped around the convention center floor. Mikey Garcia, Marco Antonio Barerra, Erik Laborspiritoj, and Juan Manuel Marquez all proved to be exceptionally popular. But nothing compared to the roar of the pro-Mexican crowd when the great Julio Cesar Chavez was introduced.
Attending this event was a dream come true and I could only wish I had more time to spend at the event. Everything was so professionally done and those in attendance were beyond accommodating.
Kudos to Skatola Fervorulo Ekspozicio for such an exceptional event.
Listen to our radio show episode from earlier this week for more insight from Tony “La Tornado” Penecale about this event.

FNUa Batalo Sporta Rezulto: UFC 214 breakdown, Nobody Likes Dana White, Tom and Tony break down Broner vs. Garcia and Lomachenko vs. Marriaga
This week’s combat sports show is a split personality situation. We had technical difficulties getting all of us together for the show, so we recorded Tom and Tony chatting with each other on Thursday night. I’ve added my portion today. It all worked out to some incredible insight about Mayweather vs. McGregor, Dana White’s growing problem with disgruntled stars in the UFC, Broner vs. Garcia and Lomachenko vs. Marriaga. We also break down Jon Jones beating Daniel Cormier at UFC 214 and the implications for a Brock Lesnar showdown in the Octagon. It’s far from likely, but it’s intriguing. We also touch on the retirements of Juan Manuel Marquez and Wladimir Klitschko.

STYLE
Mayweather:
A pure boxer with great speed who does everything well with an arsenal that includes a snapping jab, accurate right hand and a left hook that can be doubled and tripled with tremendous effect. Uses feint moves to freeze opponents and open punching lanes. Tucks his chin well behind his shoulder to roll with punches. Even on the ropes, he is a difficult target to land a solid punch on. He doesn’t have great punching power. Most of his stoppage victories come from outpunching and outclassing his opponents but rarely scoring clean knockouts.
Pacquiao:
Pacquiao boxes from a southpaw stance, moving forward and bobbing and feinting his way in. Once in close, Li uzas lian ĝustan manon trovi la gamon kaj tiam ellasas lian potencan maldekstron, Aŭ rekta aŭ looping, and he will often double and triple it to the body and head. Uses quick head shifts to slip punches while moving forward. Has soundly developed under the tutelage of Freddie Roach, Evoluiganta decan ĝustan hokon, either as a lead punch or thrown behind the left. Uses quick head shifts to slip punches while moving forward. Estas ne pli longa la timiga finisher li unufoje estis antaŭe en lia kariero.
FORTOJ
Mayweather:
* Sperto – Boksanta estas en la sango de Mayweather, and he’s been involved in the sport since his childhood. Completed an extensive amateur career by winning the bronze medal in the ’96 Olympic Games. He has been competing successfully on a championship level for the past 17 Jaroj, Alfrontanta kaj venkanta batalantojn kun vario de stiloj.
* Preparanta – Mayweather is a fitness freak with an amazing work ethic when it comes to training. Few fighters push themselves as much as Mayweather does in the gym, even doing midnight training sessions. It is evident in the ring when his stamina carries him in the late rounds.
* Ring Generalship – Mayweather knows every inch of the ring and how to control a fight. He knows when to attack, when to box, when to turn up the heat, and when to coast. Mayweather owns the ring when he is in there. Even the rare times when he has been stunned in fights, Li estis kapabla rapide solvi malsupren kaj subpremi la minacon.
Pacquiao:
* Neortodoksa Stilo – Pacquiao estas tre neortodoksa, even for a southpaw. He moves straight in but is hard to time with his bobbing and head feints. Before most opponents can time his onrushes, Li estas ĵetanta fulmrapidajn stampilojn de vario de anguloj.
* Rapido – Pacquiao estas aro de piedo kaj la posedanto de tre rapidaj manoj, especially for a boxer with such considerable power. He quickly moves into position and fires rapid one-two combinations. Li’s vastigis lian armilejon inkluzivi blindanta kombinaĵojn de hokoj, Uppercuts, Kaj duoblo aŭ trioblaj maldekstraj manoj.
* Stamina – Pacquiao estas ĉiam en treega formo kaj batalas tiel malfacile en la lasta rondo kiel li faras en la unua. He applies a ton of pressure and is constantly punching, Portanta oponantojn malsupren en la procezo.
MALFORTOJ
Mayweather:
* Maljuniĝanta – Mayweather povas havi unblemished rekordo, but Father Time has never been defeated. Mayweather has been more flat-footed in recent bouts. His first encounter with Marcos Maidana was a rough and tumble affair where Mayweather looked very ordinary. The rematch was more definitive but unimpressive.
* Distraĵoj – Maweather amoj esti en la publika okulo kaj neniam shies for de polemiko. Most notably are his public disputes and reconciliations with his father and trainer, Floyd Mayweather, Senior. The most recent camp turbulence came in the form of a training camp dispute between Floyd Sr. and Alex Ariza, working as the strength and conditioning coach. A non-harmonious training camp could lead to unnecessary distractions.
* Punching Power – Most of Mayweather’s stoppage wins came from an accumulation of punches. The usual result is the referee or opposing corner stopping the bout to prevent further punishment. Notwithstanding his controversial and explosive knockout of Victor Ortiz, it is rare to see Mayweather finish a bout with one punch, dating all the way back to his days as a 130-pounder.
Pacquiao:
* Killer Instinct – Pacquiao was once regarded as a ruthless buzzsaw, cutting through opponents until they succumbed. He has since lost that edge, failing to win a fight by stoppage since 2009. More of a concern is that on several occasions he eased up on outclassed opponents, allowing them to survive the last few rounds.
* Trouble with Counterpunchers – Pacquiao is an aggressive, Ofendo-unua batalanto kiu libere ĵetos stampilojn, but he can be timed and is often open to be hit with counters. Juan Manuel Marquez gave him fits with movement and counter punches, Eĉ trafanta sensacian knokaŭton super Pacquiao kun perfekte-timed sumigilo ĝusta mano.
* Aĝo – Pacquiao is no longer the phenomenon he was in his 20s. He is now in his mid-30s. As he has physically aged, Li ankaŭ prenis sur ekstra homa horaro kun politikaj aspiroj en lia hejma lando, Multenombraj propraj aperoj, Kaj pluraj malfacilaj vicoj.
ANTAŬA VICO
Mayweather:
(09-13-14) Mayweather neutralized and outboxed Marcos Maidana in a rematch from their closer-than-expected bout from four months prior. While the action was sparse, Ĝi estis kazo de Mayweather uzanta liajn superajn kapablojn kaj spionaro malhelpi lian agresan sed limhava oponanto.
Pacquiao:
(11-20-14) Pacquiao won a dominating unanimous decision over the game but vastly inexperienced Chris Algieri. Pacquiao was in control from the start and scored a total of six knockdowns, Iel malsukcesanta trafi la knokaŭton kelkaj fakuloj pensis lin devis esti en pozicio por la Mayweather batalo okazi.
THREE PLEJ BONAJ ELFAROJ
Mayweather:
* Diego Corrales (1/20/01) – Experts were torn on who to pick in this one with many leaning towards Corrales to win by KO. Mayweather never let him in the bout, Frapanta lin malsupren kvin fojoj antaŭ la ludgvidisto haltis la vicon en la 10a rondo.
* Arturo Gatti (6/25/05) – Kvankam Mayweather estis solida vetada ŝatolisto, many expected Gatti to make things rough for Mayweather. It never happened, Kiel Mayweather kahelis Gatti en la unua rondo kaj eltraktis severan batadon antaŭ la angulo de Gatti haltis la vicon post ses unu-sided rondoj.
* Ricky Hatton (12/8/07) – Hatton was undefeated coming into the bout and set a gameplan of constant pressure to wear out Mayweather. After a few uncomfortable rounds, Mayweather estis kapabla trovi lian gamon kaj transpreni, Kahelanta Hatton dufoje en la 10a rondo kaj deviganta halton.
Pacquiao:
* Oscar De la Hoya (12/06/08) – Ĝi estas malfacile imagi nun, but the consensus at the time was that De la Hoya would destroy the smaller Pacquiao in a landslide. It was a landslide, but it was Pacquiao dishing out the beating, ripping De la Hoya apart with both hands. After eight one-sided and brutal rounds, a swollen and bloodied De la Hoya was beaten into permanent retirement.
* Miguel Cotto (11/14/09) – Pacquiao impressively dismantled the larger and physically imposing Cotto. Pacquiao dropped the Puerto Rican superstar twice early. From the 6th round on, Pacquiao had Cotto in a defensive shell, battering him until the referee stopped the bout in the 12th round.
* Ricky Hatton (05/02/09) – Pacquio ran through Hatton in fast and destructive fashion. Hatton–while still an underdog–was expected to provide a challenge with his strength and mauling tactics. Pacquiao unveiled an improved right hook and had Hatton down twice in the first round before crushing him with a devastating knockout in the second.

Ŝlosiloj al VENKO
Mayweather:
* Get Pacquiao’s respect early, timing his rushes, and hitting him with straight right hands.
* Use clinches to smother Pacquiao and thwart any offensive momentum.
* Do not try to trade punches with Pacquiao.
Pacquiao:
* Use feints to get Mayweather to make the first move.
* Don’t aim strictly at Mayweather’s head. Focus on the body, arms, and torso?
* Do not let Mayweather control the tempo.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
* Can the fight live up to the hype? Unless this turns out to be Hagler-Hearns, Gatti-Ward, and Ali-Frazier all rolled up into one, it will be nearly impossible to live up to the hype that has surrounded this match-up for over six years. The hype might be inflated and overbearing, Sed ĝi ankoraŭ povas esti amuzanta.
* Estas la batalo okazanta tro malfrue? Both fighters are in their late 30s. Dum ĉi tiuj du phenoms estas ankoraŭ elitaj konkursantoj, they are past their primes. Even so, Okazoj de batalantoj pasinta iliaj primoj egalanta supre perfekte kaj turnanta en eksterordinara renkonto okazis sur pluraj okazoj.
* Kiu havas la plej perdi? Mayweather without a doubt has the most to lose. Pacquiao is an icon in his home country, Do neniu gravi kion okazas, he will remain a beloved figure. Mayweather is boasting about himself as “The Best Ever” and relishes his undefeated record. He even said recently that he’s better than Muhammad Ali was. Perdo elviŝas la “0” sur Mayweather’s rekordo kaj provizos pli da paŝtaĵo por la argumento ke li estas eĉ ne la plej bona de lia generacio.
* Kiel volas iliajn stilojn egalas supre? It figures to be a classic boxer vs puncher match-up. Mayweather is a consummate strategist. He is a master of figuring out his opponents, Ĉagreniĝanta ilin, Kaj instalanta sumigilajn stampilojn. Pacquiao will press the action, Provi superforti, breaking through Mayweather’s defense with a high volume of punches. It will be a clash of Quantity against Quality. Pacquiao will throw more punches, more punches than anybody has ever thrown against Mayweather. Mayweather will throw less but land at a higher connect rate, Kun akraj sumigilaj stampiloj.
* Kio estas la ŝancoj de Knokaŭto? Pacquiao is known as the better puncher, but he has failed to score a stoppage victory since battering Miguel Cotto in 2009. Mayweather has scored only one stoppage victory since 2007 against the weak-chinned Victor Ortiz. The two most likely scenarios for a knockout win would either be Pacquiao becoming reckless and leaving himself open to Mayweather’s straight right hand or Mayweather suddenly becoming an old fighter and wilting under Pacquiao’s relentless pressure. Likely, Ĉi tiu batalo iros al la poentokartoj.
* Will la oficialula faktoro en la konkludo? Kenny Bayless has been assigned as the referee and is regarded as one of the best in boxing. He has worked as the referee in six previous Pacquiao fights and four previous Mayweather bouts. The only backlash he received from those ten total bouts was the Mayweather-Maidana rematch where he was criticized for breaking up the inside clinches too quickly, seemingly favoring Mayweather against the mauling style of Maidana. With Mayweather naturally bigger than Pacquiao, Rompanta supre vinktas rapide (especially if Pacquiao has any momentum) would serve more as a disadvantage to Mayweather. The judges are Burt Clements, Dave Moretti, both veteran officials in Las Vegas, and Glenn Feldman, based out of Connecticut. Moretti has worked nine Mayweather bouts and six Pacquiao bouts. Clements has worked three Mayweather bouts and one Pacquiao bout. Feldman has only worked one Mayweather bout early in his career.
* What happens next? If the fight turns out to be entertaining, Egale, or controversial, rematch eblas dependanta sur la rezulto.
Se Mayweather gajnoj, Li estas 48-0 and can walk away from Pacquiao and seek a different challenge for his final fight. He could even seek a possible move up to grab a title at middleweight and another superfight with the next big sensation Gennady Golovkin.
Se Pacquiao gajnoj, rematch estas preskaŭ donita, Precipe kun tiom da mono sur la tablo.
Tiro volus ankaŭ plej probable devigi rematch por la fina batalo de Mayweather’s kariero sometime en septembro.
PENECALE PROGNOZO
The anticipation as the fighters make their way to the ring will be electric. The growing crescendo of excitement will continue through the introductions with Mayweather sporting a confident smirk and Pacquaio fixated with an icy glare.
The waiting will be over when the bell rings and both fighters come out to the center of the ring. Mayweather will be moving to his left, rolling his hands and probing with a soft jab. Pacquiao will be like a coiled spring, bouncing back and forth and feinting with his jab. Pacquiao will throw a few wild left hands that Mayweather backs away from, his back hitting the ropes as he slides away to his right. The round will end without anything conclusive landing for either fighter, Faranta ĝin malfacila trafi.
Pacquiao will look to increase the pace in the second round and outwork Mayweather. While Mayweather is the center of the ring, Li postulos la rapidon kaj la agon, keeping Pacquiao limited to throwing one punch at a time. When Pacquiao is able to cut the ring off and back Mayweather to the ropes, he will unleash combinations. The flurries for the most part won’t land, Sed la labora indico instigos la amason en furiozeco.
Pacquaio daŭros la altan volumon de stampiloj tra la 3Rd Kaj 4Th Rondoj ĝis Mayweather alteriĝas ĝustan manon dum iliaj piedoj estas implikita, causing Pacquiao to sprawl to the canvas. He will protest while Bayless administers the count, Sed li ne estos dolorita. Mayweather ridetos kaj movo en, Ĵetanta kelkajn ĝustajn manojn, truly seeing if Pacquiao is stunned. Pacquiao will respond with his own vicious left hand, Alportanta la amason al iliaj piedoj kiel la sonorilaj ringoj.
Mayweather denove boksos singarde komencanta la 5Th Rondo, staying on the outside and pivoting away when Pacquiao gets close. The fight will resemble a cat and mouse affair with Pacquiao trying to corner Mayweather and Mayweather trying to bait him into making a mistake. Pacquiao will be the aggressor, throwing far more punches. Mayweather will be timing him with single counter punches throughout the 6Th Kaj 7Th Rondoj.
Akra maldekstra mano de Pacquiao en la 8Th round will startle Mayweather and cause blood to leak from his nose. Pacquiao will try to press the advantage and unleash another torrent of punches. Mayweather will pull away against the ropes, Kaj Pacquiao koncentros lian atenton al la korpo kun kombinaĵo de stampiloj al la brusto kaj ŝultro, Deviganta Mayweather vinkti kaj rompi la impeton.
Mayweather vekiĝos sur liaj piedfingroj en la 9Th Rondo, using lateral movement to keep Pacquiao from setting his feet and unleashing more than one punch at a time. Pacquiao will step in with a few lefts that are blocked, but Mayweather’s movement will keep him from throwing any follow-up punches. As Mayweather slips out, Li alteriĝos liajn proprajn sumigilajn stampilojn, Faranta ĝin alia malfacila rondo trafi.
Dum la 10Th Kaj 11Th Rondoj, Mayweather will execute a plan to counter Pacquiao with single punches and avoid most of his counter flurries. Pacquiao will step in with a hard left to the body, forcing a Mayweather clinch. When the action resumes, Pacquiao rigardos ataki la korpon denove, Nur esti renkontita kun rekta rajto transdonas la supron.
La fina rondo en tre proksima vico vidos Mayweather sendanĝeriganta la peladojn de Pacquiao, Alteriĝanta ununurajn sumigilajn stampilojn kaj pivotanta for de danĝero, sharpshooting from the outside. Pacquiao will desperately try to corner Mayweather but he won’t allow it, Movanta sur la ekstero kaj vinktanta en proksima, Alportanta anticlimactic fino kiel la finaj sonorilaj ringoj.
Ĝi prenos plurajn minutojn por la poentokartoj esti entabeligita, Kun la interkonsentiĝo kredanta Mayweather gajnis 7 Rondoj, including a knockdown. Pacquaio will pray in his corner while Mayweather smiles and laughs with his entourage.
The decision will be as follows. Glen Feldman will score the bout 114-113 for Pacquaio. Burt Clements will score 115-112 for Mayweather. Dave Moretti will score the bout a very curious 115-112 Por la gajninto de la plej granda superfight de la jarcento…. MANNY “PACMAN” PACQUIAO!!!!
Kun la decido anoncis, malestima Mayweather postulos rematch antaŭ ol elsturmanta de la ringo, Instalanta alian profitan eventon en septembro kaj ebla trilogio.
