I just saw the Caballero vs. Molitor fight and honestly, not that impressed with Caballero. He throws his whole weight behind those long punches... one well placed punch from Juanma during that whole motion and Caballero will go down. He's klutzy too... he throws some punches like an amateur jumping around the ring. The one thing that does worry me about Caballero is his reach advantage. He knows how to use it. Hopefully Juanma knows how to neutralize that as well. Should be a good fight, but I'll be praying for a Salvador Sanchez- Wilfredo Gomez type beating... let him feel his power early but don't knock him out until a few rounds of punshiment.

Juanma: "Caballero Dreams of Being Like Me"

The anticipated meeting between Puerto Rican Juan Manuel "Juanma" Lopez and the Panamanian Celestino Caballero now has a date and place: January 23, 2010 in Puerto Rico.

Now the whole world can witness his appointment.

The president of Puerto Rico Best Boxing and promoter of Lopez, Ivan Rivera, confirmed that the brawl to unify the super bantamweight title of World Boxing Organization Lopez and the scepters of the World Boxing Association (WBA) and International Boxing Federation (IBF) of Caballero would be broadcast by HBO in open signal to everybody.

"We parted date of January 23 here in Puerto Rico. There is a 90 percent chance of that occurring. It would be unification on HBO, the second time that Juanma-stars on HBO, "said Rivera.

"This is a fight that Caballero wants, Juanma wants, the public wants and HBO also wants. Still have to sit and talk about the economic aspect, but there should be problems, "he said.


But first, Lee will face Rogers Mtagwa (26-12-2, 18 KOs) on October 10 at Madison Square Garden in New York, which will serve as a preamble to a future presentation on the City of Skysc****rs weekend of the Puerto Rican Day Parade.

The Junqueño reaffirmed that his fight with Caballero will be the last he will do at 122 pounds.

Caballero dreams of being like me ... I will fight him because he has insulted and offended me, offends Puerto Rico and many Puerto Ricans are upset with him, "said Lopez.

"After I KO Caballero, we will have no one else at 122. In the 126 there are more options, "said Lopez.

In Spanish

El esperado encuentro entre el boricua Juan Manuel “Juanma” López y el panameño Celestino Caballero ya tiene fecha y lugar: el 23 de enero de 2010 en Puerto Rico.

Ahora, el mundo entero podrá ser testigo de su cita.

El presidente de Puerto Rico Best Boxing y promotor de López, Iván Rivera, confirmó que la reyerta para unificar el título supergallo de la Organización Mundial de Boxeo de López y los cetros de la Asociación Mundial de Boxeo (AMB) y la Federación Internacional de Boxeo (FIB) de Caballero sería transmitida por la cadena HBO en señal abierta para todo el mundo.

“Ya separamos la fecha del 23 de enero aquí en Puerto Rico. Hay un 90 por ciento de posibilidades de que se dé. Sería unificatoria y por HBO, la segunda vez que Juanma estelariza por HBO”, manifestó Rivera.

“Ésa es una pelea que Caballero quiere, Juanma quiere, el público quiere y HBO también quiere. Todavía hay que sentarse a hablar del aspecto económico, pero no debe haber problemas”, indicó.


Pero antes, López tendrá que enfrentar a Rogers Mtagwa (26-12-2, 18 Ko's) el próximo 10 de octubre en el Madison Square Garden de Nueva York, lo que servirá como preámbulo para una futura presentación en la Ciudad de los Rascacielos el fin de semana de la Parada Puertorriqueña.

El junqueño reafirmó que su pelea con Caballero será la última que haga en las 122 libras.

“Caballero sueña con ser como yo... Voy a pelear con él porque me ha ofendido y al ofenderme a mí, ofende a Puerto Rico, y hay muchos puertorriqueños ******os con él”, manifestó López.

“Después que noqueemos a Caballero, no nos queda nadie más en las 122. En las 126 hay más opciones”, subrayó López.
