Tell me who ever feared or avoided Berto or Broner that was world class. You could maybe make a case for Ricky Burns for Broner.
    who has lopez even tried to fight cept pedraza? pretty sure there are more fighters out there than that. also lopez is an undercard fighter meaning he doesnt bring much money to those opponents. he just made 20k. its not really ducking if you can only offer that much to guys who have made hundreds of thousands in the past. those other guys like broner/berto were headlining very early in their careers so its a completely different dynamic. they werent offering opponents 20k or less to fight. lopez simply cant get the opponents unless he builds his star power. that just takes time but top rank usually does this pretty well.

          I don’t see Lopez as a threat at all. Lomachenko plays with him and stops him. Do I think he would put up a better fight? Yes, I think Lopez beats Crolla right now. But he still doesn’t have enough experience to touch Lomachenko at all.

            Let's be Real . Walters had just come off a Draw and Arum still sat him on the shelf for a Year before feeding him to Lomachenko .
            Ok win .

                I think my little sister would put up a better effort. It was pathetic.

                I mean what did he do really? Ran around visibly shaking and landed maybe 2 shots of about 12 thrown.
                Absolute joke of a mismatch as expected.

                    He needs to at least prove his worth against a good opponent. Loma will not get any credit for beating him right now.


                    What we should be doing is putting pressure on the boxing powers that we need Loma vs Mikey and Tank. Let Lopez earn his way into the fight with his hands instead of his mouth.

                      Agree, but i'd be more likely to pay for that fight than crawford-Khan
