    or the site of the first meeting, Puerto Rico. On Saturday night in Puerto Rico, Salido overcame some early trouble to drop Juanma hard and then follow it up by stopping him in the eight round to capture the WBO title.

    At this point I don't have any interest in the rematch. JuanMa needs to regroup and work on the defense & testing it out in a tune-up or two, where Salido should move on and look for another champ or something. It was just a bit one-sided in my view, Orlando had the close early rounds under control with crisp right hands and then put on a beating, neither it is the kind of fight that shouts for a rematch nor would it do Lopez's health any good at this point. He got figured out before the fight started (particularly the overhand right opening) and once Salido, a B+ fighter set things in motion it was not very competitive.

    Same result really. It will have lots of fireworks but until Lopez works on his d and ties/covers up more when he is seriously hurt than I predict another Salido TKO/KO win. Lopez just can't help himself when it comes to wars and Salido with his pressure and toughness will always get him into those and stop him. A rematch could be Hearns-Barkley 1 all over again.

    :good Exactly, Shows you the type of dude Arum is... All he is really saying is PR's give me all your money to watch JuanMa again.

    Salido as champion should be rewarded & given the opportunity to host on home/neutral territory. But this is boxing.... Money talks.

    Calderon had balls enough to go to Mexico, Why not JuamMa?

    I agree with the consensus here.

    Lopez could have been having the time of his life personal issue wise, he just can't stop being hit.

    A rematch any time soon would have the same outcome.

    Because there would be mass Rican suicides after the card.

    Either Juanma improves his defense or his days as a top fighter are over.
