            It takes just as many gifts to fight like Lopez as it does most other styles.

            Just different gifts.

              He was a complete fighter, but its not easy to do everything he could do and do it well. Lopez always looked good and a lot of that had to do with his skill set, but part of it had to do with the level of completion he fought. He never really had anyone that challenged him until the end of his career. He reigned in a where his division wasnt very deep.

                Just look at his stance, the way he throws the straight right and the left uppercut. Very similar to JMM.
                Yup, and they look like each other too lol

                JMM is more of a counter puncher on the back foot though, Lopez was a bit more aggressive but they basically use the same style, stance, its a matador style no covering up, no tying up, no blocking just a lot of countering when the guy makes mistakes. JMM gets hit a lot more though because he isn't used to going forward all his knockdowns have come from when he tries to mix it up or walk a guy down.

                  Finito is so underrated, you never hear his name mentioned at all, but this guy was the greatest most technical little man ever, and had devastating power from precision. These knockouts are all from precise technical timed punches.

                  The only knock though is his competition is pretty subpar. So I guess its why you never really see him rated to highly.
