    After watching this past weekends fight I have got to say that it looks like Lopez is the next Cotto, although a bit smaller he does have the same stance and the same plodding style but boy is it effective as hell. I can't wait for the marquez fight this fall. What do you all think?

    Different stances, Lopez is a southpaw. Also Lopez bangs more than Cotto. Cotto has a fantastic jab, whereas Lopez' doesn't impress me that much.

    They are Puerto Rican and vulnerable though, i'll give you that.

    JML looks more vulnerable at this stage of his career when Cotto was the same age, also Cotto has accomplished much more. \

    Cotto is fighting bigger stronger fighters though.Juan Ma is the harder puncher of the two.

    I think he means Cotto is fighting fighters bigger than him. JML has always had the benefit of the size advantage from his opposition

    If Juanma was anything like Cotto, he would have fought Caballero, and Gamboa by now.
