Light heavyweight prospect Najee Lopez has what it takes to be something special, according to his coach, Marc Farrait. And Farrait should know. He trains super middleweight Edgar Berlanga.

Lopez most recently knocked out Lenin Castillo in the sixth round on January 24.

A 25-year-old Puerto Rican fighter from Atlanta, Lopez is an emerging name in a division in need of some young talent. Farrait has seen his share of great fighters, so when he pays a compliment to Lopez, it speaks to the potential the trainer sees in him.
