Size indeed proved crucial as WBO superbantam champ Daniel Ponce De Leon prevailed on an easy unanimous decision over Filipino Gerry Penalosa.

Scores were 119-109 (twice) and 120-108 all in favor of Ponce De Leon, who threw a total of 1,399 punches compared to Penalosa's 481 all throughout the fight.
