That's a fact he's got pure punching power, his opponent Bellows will be a good example of how much power. Due to the fact that he's a seasoned veteran of the ring, with knockout power, that's never been knocked out. Looking to see how well Berlanga handles Bellows power, also if he can become the first to knock Bellows out. Lastly to see if Bellows can extend Berlanga, past the first round, and into the later rounds.

I saw the weigh in. Lopez did look significantly bigger (bone structure) but we knew that...Lomachenko is fighting above his best weight.
Lopez does have very good power as he spars with much bigger guys and apparently has very good punch resistance.
Guys he sparred include Ivan Baranchyk 140lbs, Yordenis Ugas 147lbs. They hit very hard.
But they don't have the movement of Lomachenko. And Teofimo himself likes taking breaks between punches.
I think Lomachenko's non-stop work rate (after 2-3 rounds) will not allow Teofimo to settle into his 'comfort zone'.
What I dont get is people saying Lopez is so big and possess so much power.
Anyone can knock out low level opposition and youre expected to. Luke Campbell and Linares are not light punchers nor are they small guys.
I doubt Teofimo punches harder than they do and if he does its because he consistently over commits on his shots.
ANYONE could knock out anyone if they loaded their shots up and threw them at a stationary target.
Could he land? Sure. But boxing history has always shown us time and time again that the better boxer is the betting favorite and the difference in skill is HUGE.
Aka Fury/Wilder and Lopez doesnt posses near the kind of equalizer Wilder has.Comment
