Snapping a head back warrants a stoppage? **** off.

Lopez was taking a lot of punishment and losing rounds but he was still throwing and seemed like he got his second wind. Wish ref let it keep going.

Main event next: 26-2 Joel Diaz Jr vs 32-3-3 Mercito Gesta at 135. Interesting fight, kind of last chance saloon for these guys, Gesta as a gatekeeper and Diaz as a failed prospect. Never been impressed with Diaz and I was one of the few people at the time that picked Prograis to beat him, he was favored (on this site at least) going into that one. Gesta solid but unspectacular and always a bit below world level. Not sure how much either guy has left.

I really, really hope the winner of this fight does not get Ryan Garcia. Would be a wipe out

Exactly it was a landed uppercut nothing more. Ref sucks butt.

I'm glad Joel Diaz is fighting at lightweight again. He had no business up at 140.

Isn't this fight at 138? It's superlight.
