PE?ALOSA, JR KO?S BUCKIE IN NINE (PHOTOS) By Rene Bonsubre, Jr. PhilBoxing.com Sun, 22 Apr 2012  MANDAUE CITY ? Dodie Boy Pe?alosa,Jr sailed into uncharted waters when he went past the fifth round for the first time in his career. But he still had too much of everything to eventually finish matters in the ninth round. Alex Buckie of Indonesia went into a defensive shell in the early rounds as Pe?alosa landed at will with his jab and one-two combinations. In the 4th, Dodie Jr sent Buckie down with a barrage of rib rattling hooks but the Indonesian got up only to go down again from another fusillade. The second knockdown woke up Buckie and he decided to punch back. He surprised Pe?alosa when he charged forward but Buckie got a point taken for holding and hitting on the back of the neck. Pe?alosa became more tentative as he answered the bell for the fifth round for the first time in his career. In the 8th, Buckie stunned Dodie,Jr with a right and sent him on the back foot. Pe?alosa looked winded but in the ninth, Pe?alosa?s left straight found a way into Buckie?s jaw sending him down for the count.
