We are automatically looking for the "next rican great". LMAO.
The stupidity on these boards is amazing. The ratio for good and bad posters leans towards bad 25-5.
Where would Hopkins be if this sport was finished and you were written off after one loss. Where would Pac be. How bout margarito , he accomplished some decent stuff(?). How about El terrible. Didnt he give us an amazing fight the other day. How about Mosley. How about JMM. The list goes on and on. From all weight classes , races and nationalities.
I think every person has a different opinion of Lopez. Regarding many aspects of his life and his skills.
I think its pretty obvious what his skills , attributes and flaws are. I think it all comes down to , can he work on his flaws , and can he adjust and fight with a strategy. Instead of trying to ko everybody they put in front of him.
If you ask me , I think he was trying to impress Gamboa who was ringside and had already been talking about Lopez , and not in a good way. And I understand why.
He has a world of talent. He has a ton of heart. His flaws had been exposed since the Mtagwa fight. Is not like we didnt know he had a suspect chin. And I dont know if you saw the replay but Salido caught him with a vicious right hand.
But whats interesting is that he stood up, finished the round and the next round he seemed to regain some type stability and reflexes. But he couldnt fight smart. After the kd he was still up on the cards. And with the right corner and instructions he could have made a comeback. IMO. Patience is a virtue.
He is either going to come harder than ever and work on his flaws , or he will be an even bigger underachiever than Judah. (Even tho Judah is still in the pic, But he could have been higher in it)
Shame on you if you have given up on this talented kid. Wether you think is is arrogant , a coward or a bum. Its pretty ******ed to write him off.
30 (27) - 1 is not a bad record. And might wake up a whole different beast.
