the what fights did you watch today\scorecard thread.

No, not at all. Just look who he was looking amazing against.

I still think anyone who thinks Lopez is as gold, great or whatever than Chang is off their head. No I'm not biased, crazy or wrecked, I genuinely think it's clear to see who was better, whose division was stronger, etc etc

The '0' doesn't do much for me.

 

I have no problem with Chang over Lopez. But the distance between them is small not huge.

True. He is very pleasing to the eye.

 

Like Ashley Ferrara?

 

I think Lopez vs Chang would probably end up in a Duran vs Leonard 1\Jofre vs Harada sort of fight.Competitive potential classic, but Lopez would end up the one being a bit befuddled and frustrated, trying too long to get the fight textbook polite and into his preferred outside\mid-range punching zone while not being able to dictate exchanges like he usually could.

It's one of the best modern great little men "what if's" imo.


Lopez was very mechanical in his style despite undeniably being great to watch for punching delivery(as good looking and efficient as anybody for mid-range\outside stuff really).as an all-round boxer-puncher viewing experience i'd rather watch Moore, Charles, Robinson and a plenty of greats and very good's that were a bit more smooth and supple upperbody movement wise, intuitive and willing to take risks and change up their punching form more(ie use looping punches, unorthodox angles etc as well as textbook stuff) even if it results in them not always as perfectly regal looking as lopez.

Ricardo is crack for punching form junkies and puritans like Mcgrain though.:yep

 

Lopez + Isidro Perez= A better fighter

 

Yeah, Arbachakov was great.

 

Despite Kittikasem and Sasakul I'll take Lopez>Arbachakov

Though if they'd met I'll take the Russian.

 

Longevity means nothing - live fast, shine bright, fade quickly.

 

obviously either Carbajal or Gamez >>>>> both d serial hometown fighter and d serial bumbeater .
I take Melchor Cob Castro over them in terms of p4p "gr8ness" at least , just far more proven . Who could guarantee that Lopez or Arbachakov would not have been KOd if they fought far from home suffering from a jet lag and who knows what more and against a good fighter at that ?

 

Frank Lopez fought away from home fairly frequently.

 

Is it me or did Burruni completely school fading Pone?

 

No it's not just you, lora and I have ripped weight-drained Pone many times for not showing up there.
