Comments Thread For: Luis Alberto Lopez Blasts Out Michael Conlan With Brutal One-Punch KO in Fifth

Conlan appears to be OK now, I actually like watching him fight now after he was a terrible bore early in his career. His style works better at a higher level where guys come to fight. I'd like to see Conlan vs Kiko, tough test for Mick against a hard man, but Kiko is also faded at this point. Would be a good crossroads fight for Conlan

Yeah I was going to mention it when I saw him warming up in the dressing room

Shades of JMM in the 4th Pac fight. His back was plastered with it. I love JMM but nobody can tell me his condition in that fight wasn't su****ious at all.

Pacquiao didn’t want to do stricter testing so he kind of got what he deserved if JMM was on something.

What a KO! Venado sparked conlan the fk out! ...well it looks like another visit win for the mexicans

Conlan couldn't avoid the uppercut, this result was never in doubt after two rounds. A beast indeed.

I became a fan after the Flores jr fight, man Lopez has an ugly style but he loves to fight and sometimes that's enough.

I think he looked better tonight than against Warrington. Conlan gave him exactly the fight he wanted. He fought too flat-footed and believed too much in his power.

Unification against Rey Vargas would be a good choice for Lopez.

Unification against Robeisy Ramirez would be risky.

Did anyone think this wasn't going to happen? Conlan was walking right into the uppercut and never made any adjustments. I see people mentioning back acne but nothing about Conlan's gloves being skinned to the max no wonder his power has increased a bit it didn't matter though. Is that still allowed in Northern Ireland?

We don't get to watch the Paddy McCrory fight? That sucks

He needed to alternate between his former and current style to beat Lopez. I think he has fooled himself into believing he's a big puncher. You don't stand and **** with an unorthodox puncher like Lopez. Even Warrington knew he had to use his feet.

Conlan seems to have average durability which isn't good when you're trying to be an elite fighter.
