    Hes lucky to be in the division at this point where Caballeros i perhaps his toughest opponent. Izzy and Rafa are out of it and have nuthing left. I think the toughest test for JuanMa would be Robert Guerrero, Gamboa,and linares but at this point I would love to see him whoop on bernabe concepcion.

    I hear the concepcion fight is going to happen some time later this year, that would be good. So would a Gamboa matchup at MSG, now that is a good match up!

    Caballero would be easier then Izzy or Rafa. I think Juanma knock him out in less than 3 rounds

    seeing as how the gamest dogs in his weight range are geting long in the tooth, i expect him to dominate a 10lb range for a while. i still havent seen him against good enough comp to gauge how good he really is compared to other big names.

    He can go far, especially if he can move up in weight and be effective, similiar to Pac. He may have no other choice actually, because people tend only pay attention to the higher weight classes(except harcore boxing fans)

    I wish NONITO could really make it up to 120 or 122 and be given a chance
    to fight this PUERTO RICAN hero... two explosive fighters at their prime.. :)

    ..for now, let's wait for the more feasible GAMBOA vs JUANMA installment.

    :)

    He's got all the tools to go far. I see him being in the top 5 p4p in 2 years.

    The Flash Donaire would pick Lopez apart and drown him in the deep waters. He's perfect for Lopez' southpaw style.. Straight right hand followed his forte punch, lethal left uppercut.. Lopez would get destroyed.

    I'd like to see how he'd get on with Caballero- other than that I think he's got the beating of all others at Super Bantam, considering that Vazquez and Marquez have moved up to Feather. As for moving up the divisions- we'll see if he can clean out Super Bantam first.

    not far. It only took him 5000 punches to finally put away Penalosa.

    I see him stopping at 135 and calling it a career. I can't wait for the Gamboa/Lopez showdown.

    There are big names ripe for the picking all the way up to 135 imo.
