  • Comments Thread For: Coach: Juanma is 100% Ready, But I'm No Magician

    Experienced trainer Freddy Trinidad said former two-division world champion Juan Manuel Lopez (33-3 30 KO's) is in excellent physical condition after two months of intense work for his upcoming rematch on Saturday night in Bayamon against Daniel Ponce de Leon (45-5 and 35 KO's), where the International title of the World Boxing Council will be at stake.

    However, he was emphatic in saying that he 'is not a magician' and Juanma is the one who has to execute his moves and strategy in the ring.

        GBP wouldn't have an issue letting him retire but let's be honest..this dude is just now 31 you think he was saving money like that? Like his career was about to be over? Therein lays the problem..he's used to a lifestyle and the only way to keep it is to keep fighting..practically the same story for every boxer who fights beyond his best moments.

          Sounds like he is making an excuse before the fight even takes place.

            ....So much damn potential. If Juanma could take it half as good as he can give it, he would be a beast

              He can't even give it anymore. This dude is the definition of "shot", I hate to say.

                  Translation; Juanma is fit but I can't make him a better boxer and he'll most likely lose to Ponce

                    I like both guys but I think Juanma needs the win most. I think what the trainer is saying is that he put together a good camp and a good gameplan but he cant MAKE Juanma break his old habits such as standing flat footed and trading shots. He probably sees how Juanma has a tendacy to back straight up while dispatching with his jab and lateral movement as potential for disaster if he doesnt stay on course with the gameplan. Me personally I disagree with the whole box PDL early strategy. I think Juanma's best chance is to jump on him early before he gets warmed up and get him out of there or at least set the tone and establish himself as boss. PDL reminds me a bit of Juan Manuel Marquez, in that u can hurt him early but he is usually stronger and more resilient as the fight wages on.
