This is how I see it playing out:
Loma will beat Lopez, like a matador defeating a bull.
He will use angles and footwork like Lopez wouldn't have believed possible, and Lopez will not be able to apply his power. Lopez will get frustrated. His youth and fitness will help, but by the 8th round Loma will be dominating Lopez and imposing his will totally. Lopez goes down somewhere around the 9th or 10th from an increasing barrage of clean hits.
i see it happening like this as well.
This fight is like putting the 8th grader who just promoted to high school, in the ring with a college graduate. Lomas footwork is going to help his hands carve up Lopez face.
I have the fight 7-3 in favor of Loma. His experience is too vast compared to Lopez. The young talent is either going to get the KO in the early rounds 1-3 rounds or Loma is going to pick him apart and end it 8-10 rounds. Loma is just too great.
Ricardo Mayorga vs Vernon Forrest
or
Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Canelo Alvarez
I was thinking it would be either Floyd/Corrales or ODH/Vargas if I was betting right now. Loma would be Floyd and ODH.

I don't think Lopez has enough experience to deal with the many angles Loma offers. Loma will probably not have much difficulty in figuring out Lopez and go on to a shut out.
I think that loma will overwhelm lopez in the fight and cath him with a good shot. He hasn't been tested in the dept yet because hes been coming up real fast and knocking everyone that stands in front of him out. He hasn't came close to being in the ring with someone like loma. Its gonna end bad for him.
I also think his team will talk a lot of trash talk and try to get in the head of loma. In the past this has only made loma train harder and fight harder. :boxing:
It's a pick 'em fight for me, too hard to say.
The factors I see would be Lopez's mentality. Obviously Loma would be the biggest fight of his career, he's still young and that pressure could be too much too soon.
For Loma, he's been showing some physical issues, minor injuries the last few fights that have slowed him down a little bit. Loma's definitely got the experience, but I don't think anyone would want to go up against Lopez feeling less than 100%.
Can't wait though - I'm truly hoping this one goes through! (And Davis on the horizon after that? BEAUTIFUL!)
Great post. Captures what I think as well. Green K.

Loma side steps Lopez with his expert footwork for 10 rounds and busts Lopez up pretty good. In the 11th, Lopez lands a monster shot and hurts Loma pretty good but Loma uses his high boxing IQ and makes it to the bell. Loma stays away in the 12th and wins 116-111.
Idk who wins but I want to see it, they cant let Loma lose his prime, hes in the last stage of his prime get him now if you can
Loma doesn't get hit much, will see if Teo can land his big punches
Thats the key. Being there to hit. I dont think Teo will get frustrated at the movement and also the punches in bunches he will get . I think its gonna be a good fight . Good build up also.
Where’s the poll
Anyway Loma will box circles around him and even maybe get a late ko
I didn’t think he would get by Commey
Just don’t think Lopez would catch Loma like he did against Commey
Loma would break him down , certainly not engage in a war so early in the fight
poll should be up now.
