Give him a chance, he's just staying busy. Molitor didn't want to fight him, he'll fight ann old Caballero instead, of course in Canada. Juanma wants to fight the top guys at the division, but that seems to be an opportunity for 09.
Juanma Lopez: "Cesar Figueroa Won't See The Sixth-Round"

All this talk about Juanma. Saying he's overrated and stuff. So far he beat everybody they put in front of him, most by K.O. Also, he is a fighter not a matchmaker. If the top guys are scared or have scheduling conflicts, Juanma is going to stay busy. I don't think he is the next Trinidad as someone said. He is going to be better. He has really good boxing skills and is not one dimensional. Trinidad only relied on his power, especially that left hook. Juanma can move and punch like the best. And his power... well ask Ponce de Leon about it. If he can still talk. If thay do the fights in MSG is because the attraction/ticket seller will be Juanma. Once more people know him, he'll beat anybody even if they fight on the moon.

No way in hell do I see him being bigger than Trinidad. I just don't see it. How can you say he punches/moves like the best when he hasn't fought the best. He's coming up. You really think JuanMa is a bigger attraction than Rafa or Izzy? Maybe in NY or PR but that's it, those 2 have produced some amazing fights. JuanMa hasn't even produced anything on their level nor do I see it happening. I wouldn't be suprissed if they give him another easy fighter in Dec. He may be a champion but not a true champion yet.Comment

If Juanma was Mexican you would be calling him the 8th wonder! Even if he fighting a bum now does not erase the fact that in the very first round he made a gatito out of De Leon!No way in hell do I see him being bigger than Trinidad. I just don't see it.

bull****, he is like a prime trinidad who was unstoppable at his comfortable and natural weight class. not like the arrogant trinidad who thought he could retire and move up 2 weight classes and beat the number 1 contenders, bottom line, trinidad always fought everyone and feared nothing>> just as juan manuel lopez will> only he will be much more dedicatedComment

Nope, if he was Mexican I would be even more disappointed. Why do you think I mentioned JCCjr? Also, when I saw the fight everyone around me was giving me **** cause I said Ponce is going to get his ass knocked out by the way he was throwing his punches. Your boy is Overhyped, he's no Cotto, especially no Trinidad.Comment
