Comments Thread For: Amir Khan-Josesito Lopez Could Be Next For April

[-Jay-]

If Lopez can make weight at 140 again I think there is a good chance he'll ko Khan if he leaves his chin hanging out.

This is the point: Lopez may not be that difficult to outbox, but can Khan do that for 12 rounds?

Lopez isn't a one-punch KO artist but he hits solidly. Khan is easily dragged into the trenches. Look at Peterson and Maidana. Once the pace of the fight changes, Khan can't change it back.

Lopez isn't an elite fighter but he's a durable kid with tons of heart. Khan probably can't possibly knock the kid out, and with a heart like he's got, he'll probably have Khan on wobbly legs at some point before the final bell rings.

I really don't see it.

I don't see Lopez giving Khan any trouble. He's not the kind of puncher to stop Khan and I can't see anyway he wins a decision.

As for Peterson and Maidana, I consider both of them to be levels above Lopez.

Lopez will bring it, and he'll land shots and perhaps win some rounds but I can't see anyway he wins. I'll root for him, but I just don't see him winning and I think he will lose badly.

I could easily see Khan stopping Lopez late aswell.

if all boxers were like khan;- taking difficult fights boxing would be saved.

Make this fight happen! I would have to pick Khan for this one, as long as he doesn't trade with Josesito.

Khan should be able to easily outbox Lopez but he doesn't move his head and leaves his chin exposed in exchanges so I wouldn't be shocked if Lopez won by KO

Boxing is doing very well. It doesn't need to be saved. (well, maybe the heavyweight division does but that's about it.)

It's sad to see some comments of boxing fans asking a fighter to cherry pick an opponent, because the other guy hits hard. LOL
