I think one of the problems is he has eaten TOO many punches. He had slurred speech after Salido, and, hopefully not, but I think his career is not going to last long.
LMAO, Cotto>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Juanma by a country mile!!!
I have never seen Cotto perform out of his caracther, his skills are always there, lol
Anyways, juanma needs to hire Freddi Roac, Nacho or Nassim, stay away from the ring for 4 months practicing in the gym fight 1 or 2 gimmes to practice and then go for the big boys!!!
I know, right? They're always joshing me about how I can root for someone as "crappy" as Cotto. Ellos dicen: "Cotto ya es una porquería de boxeador...mira la pelea con Pacquiao."
And I'm thinking: "C'mon now...who's looked against Pacquiao in the last three years anyway besides Márquez in 2008? Nooooooooooobody."
It's like Kellerman said on the Cotto-Foreman broadcast (referring to Cotto): "He lost to Pacquiao, but...so what? That's like losing to Roy Jones, Jr. in his prime, I mean...what are ya' gonna' do?"
But anyway...in regards to Juanma, he needs to ditch the trainers and concentrate on his career and forget about his corner's feelings and whatnot. It's his career and his money.
My father and I were talking about this yesterday and he was saying: "Si Juanma sigue asi, dentro de cuatro años (y estoy siendo generoso), Juanma será reducido a peleador en carteleras pequeñas por poco dinero."
Juanma NEEDS to switch something, because his trainers obviously haven't corrected absolutely anything. Either that...or...Juanma was never really that good.
I'm hoping he can fix those huge flaws, but I doubt it. :(
His defense is still ****ty.
What defense?
juanma is not a star to me...he is an average fighter and no heir apparent to trinidad at all..salido will destroy him again
It sucks but id have to agree, Lopez just isnt a great fighter his defence is poor and his form sloppy, Salido KO win again... Im a Juanma fan btw
I wouldn't call him average but He is not great. He is just good.
Yep that's exactly what I thought yesterday when I was watching Lopez - Oliver. His defense seems to get worse every time he gets in the ring, and he was extremely slow. In fact he was stunned by Oliver in the first round, and if Oliver had more power he would have KOd Juanma pretty easily. I don't see how Lopez is going to beat Salido, in fact I think that Lopez is going to be easier to beat for Salido right now, something like Segura - Calderon, where in the second fight Calderon was just destroyed faster by Segura.
I have to agree with many of the guys here, JuanMa has actually gotten worse as his career has gone on. He looked terrible against a weak opponent in Oliver. Lopez was waaay too slow. I can't believe how many punches JuanMa ate in two rounds, even though Oliver spent much of the time on the canvass! If it wasn't for Lopez's power...forget it.
Before, I thought JuanMa stood a good chance of winning the rematch with Salido. Not anymore. What were Lopez and his people doing these last few months, playing Playstation? "Siri's" camp must be salivating....
The truth is, you never know what the future holds, but, right now, Lopez's career certainly doesn't appear to hold the promise it once did. There may never even be the once highly anticipated "showdown" with Gamboa.
I think you're a little late. Should've done it several months ago like me when people still THOUGHT Juanma had a chance in a rematch.
I was pretty sure Juanma would lose again, the match last night just solidified for me.
Juanma ain't going anywhere. When you get stunned, albeit briefly, by Mike Oliver who only has 23% KO rate, your chin's pretty shaky. In addition to that, Juanma looked sloppy and had no coordination in his punches. ON TOP OF THAT, his DEFENSE is non-existant...throwing punches wildly and his chin wide open. You could even add slow in there.
Juanma's got power but if you put someone like Salido in there who can actually TAKE a punch...Juanma's a sitting duck.
Not late. I have always said he has been coming downhill ever since... the Lontchi fight! Yes, as early as that. He won't go anywhere.
I was watching the fight at my in-law's house and everybody there (most of them really casual fans) was saying that Juanma has become like Cotto: slow, no defense, taking too many punches, a bum...
I'm like WTF?! Cotto has never looked THAT bad in his career like Juanma did last night in a gimme fight.
Cotto>Juanma
And yes, Juanma DID fall in love with his power. I think that 2008 year with his three 1st round KO's caused him to believe that he could knock out anyone. He actually fights better in his past fights. He really HAS looked worser and worser as each fight has gone on. With probably Luevano as the only exception, ever since that Mtagwa debacle, he's been stunned/gone down in every single fight.

If Juanma was to fight Salido again like he fought last night, he would get stopped again.
He badly needs to work on tucking his chin in and keeping his hands up. He also needs to start boxing again instead of trying to knock everyone out.

Watching the fight again Juanma's chin is so wide open even someone like Malignaggi could KO him.
Its sad to say, but he looks better in his 15th and 16th fights than right now. He felt in love with his power, he regressed his technique so bad, that Rocky Martinez looked way better than him last night. He doesnt use his jab anymore, he doesnt use hsi legs, his combinatios doesnt look as sharp!!!
Anyways, the guy is a total mess. He went from P4P caliber start, to WTF???
He needs to dump that bunch of retards he have as trainers, he needs to stop being arrogant and humble himself. Admit he needs help with better trainers and look for it!!
He is losing his fan base to, a lot of people who was at teh fight told me, that most of the fans there, where saying that Juanma just sucks now and they wont be buying PPVs or tickets to his fights unless he shows improvements!!
I hope Arum forces him to dump his trainers and find a trainer, I say NAcho Beristain, Freddi Roach or Pernell Whitaker would do!!

After watching Juanma's last night performance, I'm 100% sure. Taking bets.

Like many have said Juanma's techniqhe has regressed badly, he is slower, no defence, he doesn't move at all. Juanma was a future superstar now he is on his way to becoming just another guy. He needs a new team but I doubt he changes it.

Juanma didn't look good at all. Horrible defense, wide looping punches. He needed to put some rounds in and be smart. I can't believe people thought he would beat Gamboa. The speed difference is to much and Juanma leaves himself wide open.
