Lopez v Maidana June 8th

[QQQQQQQ]

far from a bum fight. really really looking foward to this. a year ago i woul dhave picked lopez, but with maidana having 3months of preparation with garcia idk . tossup

I gotta give it to Lopez! this kid is always willing to face top notch competition. I think Lopez brings his best, but fades in the later rounds. Maidana's an animal.

Josesito is quick and has a good reach but i think Chino has what it takes to break that face into peaces.

Maidana will show why he is still the fighter to watch. I favor Chino in an all out war of attrition. No one questions Lopez's heart, but his chin been tenderized by Canelo, and he has less power than Maidana.

I agree Maidana is a very hard puncher and will KO Lopez. Both Canelo and Maidana are big punchers but I think Canelo hits harder because he is a full 154 pounder while Maidana was fighting at 140 not long ago. Canelo went through Lopez like a hot knife through butter and KOed him with ease. I expect Maidana to get the same result but I think Lopez will put up a better fight against Maidana than he did against Canelo. Who ever is in charge of Lopez's career is sure matching him tough. I think he had a chance to do well at 140 but fighting big punchers like Canelo and Maidana back to back could hurt him. I would be surprised if Lopez wins this fight or even goes the distance.

Canelo was hurting Lopez to the body not the chin. And if you think Alvarez has less power than Maidana your a idiot.

147, i don't think maidana is going back to 140.

man, june seems so far away. the alvarez card would have been great to have it on. it should be a foty candidate. i'm leaning towards maidana on this one. if malignaggi still holds the belt when this fight is done, hopefully gbp can do malignaggi/maidana (since both men wanted it).

Interesting, I don't think Lopez is a good fit at 147; 140 seems to suit him better.
