    Rafa looked very small in there against Lopez who looked like a LW or JWW to me, and his age showed especially after the 4th round.


    Juanma is decent, but this win doesn't change my opinion about him, if anything, it reinforces it.
    He showed a pretty good chin as he was tagged repeatedly, and yeah he definitely was the bigger man which we all knew before.

        I find it somewhat ironic that Rafa buckled him a few times anyway. The fact that Lopez sat there and egged Rafa to hit him more only proved Lopez cowardice. He knew Rafa was too small from the time the fight was signed. Kinda pisses me off tbh.

        And when Gray asked him about a rematch, Rafa said yes, and Lopez said "its up to Bob".... what a ****.

        Caballero is all class. There's a reason they're avoiding him. He'd take em' both to school.

          pwill=caballero, don't let anyone tell you different.


          stop trying lopez, he beats rafa 9 out of 10, IN 2010. prime rafa would have brutally ko'd him in 5 cuz juanma can't keep his right hand up under any circumstances.

            Rafa did better than I thought he would and if you remember is still a good puncher while JuanMa stood up to his power. Sure he is past prime and small but its a name on JuanMa's resume.

            If he did fight Rafa again, c'mon Jacky you would be saying he ducking Caba or Gamboa. Wait and see he will fight all of these guys.

              lmao, you're insane. There's no similarities at all.

              I'm not trying Lopez, whatever that means.

              I don't wanna see a rematch, I think Raffy should retire. I just thought it was telling that he was eager to go again whilst Lopez took the political route.

                Lopez showed why he is vulnerable and so dangerous once again. Props to Rafa for showing the power to hurt juanma and taking the beating he took for as long as he could. Juanman vs Gamboa will be a toss up fight with both guys having serious vulnerabilities.

                  you're trying lopez by talking shi t about his response to the rematch. he's always been very classy towards his opponenents and deferred to bob. don't try and sneak in subtle disrespects.

                  no similarities at all? how bout we start with tall volume punchers. there's two

                    ok maybe not complaining...but after every fight people seem to only focus on the negatives on this forums instead of just giving a guy credit and moving on, JuanMa can guard good enough and move around and dodge punches good enough, of course he is going to get hit, he clearly came to FIGHT tonight, he wanted to stand in and trade

                      It was a weak response when Rafa was standing right there accepting with no second thoughts.

                      As for your comparison yes, they're both tall and they both throw punches, but you can make that comparison for almost anyone within those wide parameters.

                      The similarities stop there. Caba is a skilled technician with great skills, Williams is just a big guy fighting small guys who throws a **** load of punches.
