    Vazquez jr was the guy who gave Donaire fits, I dont think thats a smart return fight

    he should take a soft touch to gain confidence a light puncher with a low KO ratio who will stand there to be hit

    he just got clobbered twice and needs to get a W, three defeats in a row would be derailing

    2 things

    Either

    Juanma just met his match in Salido, a tough chinned hard hitting relentless experienced vet who has been at 126 forever unlike Juanma who moved up to the weight, maybe Juanma is ok as a fighter but ran into something he cant beat

    Or Juanma has a **** load of glaring flaws and needs to go back to the drawing board take easy fights and get the confidence back and like Cotto get a new trainer fix his flaws

    Vazquez JR just gave Donaire a p4p guy fits this is not what you stick Juanma in with I know Juanma just lost to a puncher slugger like Salido and this guy doesnt resemble Salido but he is tricky and it would be a shame to lose 2 KO's in a row and then get outfoxed

    I dont think its safe but as a good fight its good for boxing

    No fight with Billy Dib in it is ever good....... unless he gets KTFO.
     
  6. Vasquez Jr. might be a tough comeback fight on paper, but Lopez is physically a lot bigger and would be able to take anything Vasquez gave. it would be a fun fight and all but I bet that ends similarly to Lopez vs. Rafa.

    I have no interest in seeing Dib anymore, he seems to enjoy making his fights stink. Vazquez is a good opponent for Lopez, he's a decent fighter who should make for a fun fight but shouldn't beat Lopez, but I picked Lopez to beat Salido both times so who knows.

    Translation: Arum has just finished crying about the lost money. Salido butt****ed him out of a lucrative Lopez-Gamboa fight. He spent the better part of 4 years trying to build this fight up and now its not worth any more than it was 4 years ago, if not a much less since Nobody would pick Lopez.

    Lopez is going to get cashed out soon.
