Does the lightweight deserve this world title opportunity? The 14-0 so-called "Knockout Artist" is against IBF Lightweight Champ 29-2 Richard Commey under the Crawford card. The fortnight dancing ESPN top prospect has gained popularity for his fast knockouts.
Is he taking his career too fast and with his experience can he handle being a world champ?
Screw this statement he ****ing killed it. Congrats to the young champ.
I hope he is rushing and hurting his chances. He is an arrogant disrespectful bragger who says he is taking over the sport. I don't like the guy and hope he fails. I don't want him to become a big star. If he is good enough then so be it. If he can beat everyone then he deserves it but I don't think he is good enough to back up his big mouth. Is fighting for a world title after only 14 pro fights rushing things? Yes it is but that is his decision. If it was up to him he would have already fought Loma.
- -If up to U, U be a cat.
Agreed. I was just watching the Easter/Commey fight yesterday. Easter hurt him more than once. Are we even sure Commey has a granite chin. I really wouldn't be shocked if Lopez KOs him after watching that fight.
We just continue winning. Lol

- -Boxrec #4 vs #2.
U got fainting goat syndrome?
Whether he is rushing or not remains to be seen but he has asked for this opportunity. He will be fighting at MSG in his hometown for the world
Title. Fighters dream of this opportunity so props to Lopez for seizing the day.
That said I don’t think he wins and expect Commey to come out victorious. I’m rooting for Lopez though as a Central American fighter.
Too late to consider that now, we find out Saturday if he is ready and as good as he and his father say he is
I'm rooting for the Kid but Commey MIGHT be a bit too experienced for him but we shall see. It would be HUGE for him if he can beat Commey. It is the toughest test so far out of that next generation group of fighters (Stevenson, Haney, Garcia, Vergil Ortiz, Balderas...)
If he lose then with him being so young, plenty of time to rebuild and work his way back up
Commey gonna be to much to handle for Lopez imo
Commey can bang also , don’t believe Lopez has a mighty chin
That’s what I think will make the difference
That’s true. Commey is solid but as i mentioned on another thread, Top Rank has the best matchmakers who rarely fuk up.
Commey is somebody whose capable of giving him different looks and maybe even a scare or two in the process but Lopez is supposed to beat guys like him if he’s the real deal.
I got Lopez winning

Was Mike Tyson or Ali rushing? Richard Commey isn't all that special. Solid fighter but very beatable.

We will find out soon enough and I would rather him go for it now than to simply pad his record by knocking out the Mason Menard's of the world for the next three years.
agreed
its his career...im sure there are people around him that have told him he might be going too fast....but its his career...he wants this fight and he wants loma....
not every guy is mature at his age...but hes certainly an adult
usually people complain when prospects are coddled and fed bums....but now this guy is targeting loma? theyre all like "slow down fella" and suddenly care and are joining the "teo protection agency"
