I give Chino a small edge especially since he found a jab, but the fight is close and Josesito Lopez is F*cking iLL! I wanna bet all my points on The Peoples Champ, who wants to dance?
Who do you guys like in this match up?
I think Maidana will win by KO. Maidana is a bigger man than Lopez in my opinion. I also think Maidana hits much harder than Lopez and I think he is tougher and gamer than Lopez. Lopez has fast hands and he is brave to fight punchers like Canelo and Maidana. He took a bad beating from Canelo and I don't think that did him any good. I think he is in over his head again with Maidana and he should have stayed at 140. If you want to bet all your points on Lopez to beat Maidana I will take that bet. I am betting on Maidana to beat Lopez. PM me if you want that bet.
Its the fight to make next , you already have all the top WBA guys at 147 going at each other..

Alexander is a weird fighter..I'm always hype to see him fight(dude does fight a lot of tough opponents),but I'm always disappointed when the fight is finished..LOL..One of the weirdest fighters man..He's like a hot chick with a dry puss..
Bahahahhaha!

Lopez has some power, but i think the Jaw breaking was just one of those freak moments. Jaws don't get broken in many fights. Lopez made me a fan with that performance though a lot of bravery and heart.
I hope he comes to fight and makes it a war like advertised, i can understand if he dosen't but i'm selfish as i want a great fight.:boxing:
Your right and thats my point, jaws dont get broken in many fights. Lopez comes to fight, dude would fight GGG tomorrow no questions asked.
Im rolling with Lopez in this fight. I was very impressed the way his punches were so crisp in the Ortiz fight. He really worked on his power in training camp. If Maidanas in shape he has the ability of making it a slugfest and landing big shots. But ill role with Lopez. This is a big fight for him. This puts him right in the mix at WW.
The winner will no doubt get a big fight later in the year.

:boxing: Exactly, one of us will be right. Another factor here is that maidana might make it a brawl with his pressure and power even if Lopez hadn't planned on it.
Who knows but i can't picture it being boring, Lopez hasn't shown that to me in any other previous fights. For example in the Maidana vs Devon fight, my fear was that Devon would hold, clinch and bore me to death and he did.
(Credit to Devon, it worked wonders against Maidana, but it was horrible to watch)

Thats right! Also think Chino's power makes his edge slightly higher, but you cant sleep on Lopez's power. Dude is the Jaw-Breaker!
56 secs,My Jaws Broken Man!!!!Look at Oscars face when Ortiz quits,he looks horrified..
Excellent Point there! Im just not sure that Madana's power is that much greater then Lopez's. Sure hes got the edge in power, but he didnt break Ortiz jaw. It going to be a good one, thats for sure!

I can get with this for sure..I also agree with ya break down of the fight..Except your banking on Lopez not being able to maintain his focus and not get lured into the back alley brawl,and I'm banking on him being able too..May the best man win..lol..
But I will say,Maidana(at least in his last fight)stamina looks to have gotten better..Which will be a big plus in this fight..
