Rafael Marquez-Juan Manuel Lopez Clash In Works For September

[savorduhflavor]

This works both ways my friend. Couple months later he is fighting for his life and people come up with the weight drained excuse. I see Lopez like Cintron, once he sees someone taking his punch he will be in "oh ****" mode.

You're a very respectable poster and you know I always give you props cause you're one of the few ones on this site that isn't biased.

Oh I know, I'm not attacking you, I don't think you're attacking me. We're discussing the fight like I wish the rest of the board could.

You could be right about Lopezs' reaction, but we don't know that for a fact of course.

But I was just bringing up that Lopez has shown a monster work rate as well. And I think Cab is more hittable, and Lopez is a bigger puncher IMO.

And I also agree with Warp that the workrate Cab showed against Yordan and Lopez showed against Penelosa are not accurate of the type of fight we'd see if they fought each other.

JuanMa vs Rafy makes me sadface...

The pride inside him should demand a Cab fight...I'm starting to wonder about JuanMa...I was in denial...but not taking on the best fighter in your division who's just begging to **** you up is just sad...

This is a real fan right here.

Its permma Banned!!!

if not I would bet the hole Million.

But lets make 500K ill be able to have that much when the fight gets made

!!! Pendejo. That's what you get for trolling.

The fight isn't going to get made. Team Lopez will find excuse after excuse.

I will admit Lopez has more boxing skills than Cab but skills doesn't always win fights.

I'm willing to be if this was Cotto he would of already fought Cab long time ago.

Lopez will have to eat some heavy punches to beat Rafa. I don't think he can and stay upright.

Marquez' stance, movement, and counter punching will keep the fight at a slower pace, unless Lopez is in the mold of Vazquez and will take some to dish out (I don't think he is).

I see Rafa slowing the fight down to the type of pace he likes and if he does, he will eventually stop Lopez late. If Lopez tries to take it to him, he will get raked in the process, but if he can take the shots (I don't think he can), he will win.

People forget that Rafa had 1 shot KO power at 118. He only fought one of the best conditioned and iron chinned fighter at 122. He has 2 3rd round KOs at 126, I don't think his power has gone anywhere.

Im a Rafa fan.. But at this point in his career i think he goes down to JuanMa..

With that said.. I think the Cab fight is alot closer than most think.. I still think JuanMa would outpoint him to a UD but then again i could be wrong.. I could see these two having a pretty epic trilogy considering how much they dislike each other.. I wish they'd make it happen...

Im on the JuanMa Train but thinking about hopping off if he doesnt step up the competition soon...

If it was for trolling you wouldnt be here jotto.

You know why I got banned, so dont front!!


Matters of fact 50K Juanma fights Caballero,Rojas or John after Rafa. and if it is Caba, 100K he doesnt win a round. Deal?

This is a real fan right here.

I can't support his [in]actions in regards to this fight

Him AND Arum are to blame, but moreso JuanMa since Arum works for him...everyone is talking about Cab being so easy...

I honestly think Cab would give Lopez the business but get served by Gamboa...Lopez is looking like he's losing that "it" factor...maybe that's whats really going on...

We shouldn't be having fantasy fights where we predict the ending before it starts...because nobody predicted Manny's rise to the top and so much more...

Overall, c'mon Lopez, don't let down your countrymen...W or L, you have to accept that challenge

Rafas chin is as good as Khans. His defense is nothing to write home about either. Juanma have a better chin.

Watch Rafa get mauled and chop down in 7 or less

I'm willing to be if this was Cotto he would of already fought Cab long time ago.

If this was Cotto, regardless of the odds...Cab would have been in the ring with him...which is why I believe Margarito/Cotto II will happen...

JuanMa just isn't built like Cotto...

Although I'll give props if JuanMa fights Gamboa
