      I'll tell you something about the Irish that Engishmen complain about. They're too Mexican. Small rings and hard heads and such.

        I know Venado is IBF titlist. I'm saying he's the last guy in the division anyone should be gunning for. He was smacking good fighters (Vences, Flores Jr.) at 130. 126 is a piece of cake for him.

          I've only seen Lopez once, against Warrington. That performance wasn't exactly inspiring, but I"ll reserve judgment. Let's see how he performs against Conlan.

            What nonsense are you talking about now?

            English fighters don't complain about Irish fighters. You've just Made that up. The only complaints with the Mexicans is all the fraudulent advantages they have before they take fights. Remove them, the Mexican loses. Why do you think it's a national identity with them all doing it? They know they can't win fights otherwise. It's why they've been forced to do this from top to bottom.

              Go watch his fights against Lowe and Flores Jr.

                To what "Fraduilent advantages" are you referring to?
                Did Lopez not beat Isaac Lowe in his home town.
                Did he also not beat and take Warrington's title in his home town with home judges and a home town ref who was working against him??

                  Read some English history Oxford edition. It's Whig history, but that might be too deep for you. Why would I make it up? To rattle your cage?

                      Lopez was a cherry pick though, at least earlier in his career. Lopez was picked by both Andy Vences and Gabriel Flores jr to be just an stepping stone opponent for them and Lopez beat them both. And I say Conlan and Top Rank cherry picked Lopez because they think the #6 ranked Conlan can beat Lopez despite Conlan being the #1 contender for the WBC belt.
