Comments Thread For: Michael Conlan: Lopez Is A Ballsy Road Warrior; Definitely A Better Fighter Than Leigh Wood

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

By Keith Idec - Michael Conlan conceded that he'll have to be the absolute best version of himself Saturday night to dethrone Luis Alberto Lopez. Northern Ireland's Conlan considers Lopez a better fighter overall than Leigh Wood, who knocked Conlan out of the ring in the 12th round of Conlan's first featherweight world title shot 14 months ago. Lopez especially impressed Conlan by traveling to Josh Warrington's hometown of Leeds, England, and beating Warrington to win the IBF featherweight title in Lopez's last fight.

I've seen Conlan do some dumb things, all that olympic drama. I would have given him more stick but for Shakur utter breakdown. Mike has skill if not the best chin. Conlan by back foot aggression.

Conlan look's like a Sherman Tank next to Lopez, let's see if he fight's like one. He usually fight's the good fight, so this one should be an exciting fight.
I could be wrong, but I'm picking Conlan to win this fight, and walk away with Lopez's title.

Conlan is obsessed with Wood lol. Maybe he should just focus on the guy in front of him. He got ktfo, and it's eating away at him. If he's not careful it'll happen again.

Woods beat you so this guy definitely should then , was going to watch but no point then

I meant Conlan has a thing for Wood. (Insert joke here).

If Conlan makes it to the final bell (or should I say bell's end?),
chances are he'll win.

Wood knocked him outside the ring, im sure he doesn’t remember how good Wood was

[deathofaclown]

Did he forget Wood ended up wearing him down, then knocking him out cold through the ropes and sent him to hospital?
