Comments Thread For: Lopez: Maidana is My Toughest, Most Important Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Josesito Lopez is making his return to the ring June 8th against hard hitting Marcos Maidana in a fight that many expect will be a war from beginning to end. Lopez is also making a return to a weight class that is better suited for him at Welterweight where he feels he’s now more acclimated to the weight.

Lopez was dubbed the “Riverside Rocky” for his now classic win over heavy favorite Victor Ortiz last June as he pulled off arguably the upset of the year and broke Ortiz’s jaw in the process. Lopez was immediately catapulted to a new level and so was his popularity. Even with the loss to Saul “Canelo” Alvarez last year when he tried his luck at 154 pounds, his stock didn’t drop as it was understood he took a chance and was simply too small for the Junior Middleweight division.

Lopez- Alvarez was a huge scandal. That fight should never have been allowed.

If Lopez had chosen to go back to 140 after beating Ortiz, instead of padding Alvarez's already overrated record, he could beat anyone at 140, including Garcia and Matthysse.

Loopez needs 2 use all his speed & technical skill or he'll up like Lamont last Sat...of courze Alvarez was a WBC orchestrated sham, just like when Alvarez won the title vs a '47#er, unranked at 154# Hatton...
