It’s been a while since I visited the fame Wildcard Gym so I decided to pick up the old camera and took a trip to the place to check out the Filipino fighters training there for their Valentine’s eve fights at the Las Vegas Hilton.
First I visited with Gerry Penalosa who is deep in training for his fight with Eric Morel for the WBO Interim Bantamweight championship.
Gerry looks trim and fit and ready to rumble.
