Former Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation champion Allan Tanada suffered a one-sided beating at the hands of Puerto Rico's Gamalier Rodriguez in a super featherweight bout on the undercard of the Oscar Salido-Juan Manuel "Juanma" Lopez WBO featherweight title fight in San Juan, Puerto Rico this morning (Manila time).
Two judges scored the fight 79-73 for Rodriguez while the third scored the fight an 80-72 shutout.
Well-known TV boxing analyst Moy Lainez of the "In This Corner" gym where Tanada trains earlier told the Manila Standard that Tanada is "not in tip top condition and we are not impressed."
He said the 20 year old Tanada who has a record of 11-1-2 with 5 knockouts "is too cocky. He is not the old Tanada we saw win a terrific 10 round split decision against Jose Ocampo to grab the vacant WBO Asia Pacific Youth title on August 7, 2010."
Lainez said that in a sparring session with former OPBF champion Ronald Pontillas before he left Manila, Tanada was "badly beaten and I scolded him. He is much different now and thinks he is a world champion."
Lainez said he warned Tanada that his 25 year old opponent Gamalier Rodriguez is a good fighter with a record of 17-2-3 with 12 knockouts.
Rodriguez has won 7 fights by stopped and 1 by a unanimous decision with 1 technical draw since dropping a six round decision to lanky David Rodela, a regular sparring partner of pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao.
Rodriguez dominated the fight and reportedly staggered Tanada in the fifth round but couldn't put him away.
