    I think Lopez should be in top 10 P4P.

    He isn't knocking out bums, he is knocking out world class fighters in his weight class.

    not yet, like gold he needs to be put in the fire and be truly tested to see what he's really made off. Because of fighters never being tested and proven like this is that we get so many overrated hype jobs.

    He shouldn't even be in the top 25.

    Everyone: GO find the Penaloza/ Ponce deLeon fight. He made Ponce look like a boxer. And now he is going up in weight. I will say Lopez by KO in less than 8.

    How can you put him #11 on the basis he has one win against the over-rated Daniel Ponce De Leon?

    based on his last fight against a guy who was paid to quit? I don't think so...

    So where do you have Joan Guzman, is similarily skilled if not more so, is more proven and but has similarily a relatively weak resume?
