    Lopez would be a good opponent for the Macklin/Pirog winner.

    True. But that's still the type of fighter Leija was.

    Maybe towards the end.

    A guy like Lopez won't ever get close to get a win that measures to Leija's over Nelson but I see where you're coming from.

    With Lopez's slippery southpaw style he would give kelly fits! lopez is one of the most avoided fighters in boxing, and is more than worthy of a world title belt

    You underrate both Lopez and especially Leija. Lopez is a legit Middleweight probably top 5.

    As for Leija when did you start watching him:huh The man was a very skilled champ at Junior Lightweight and went 2-1-1 with ATG Azumah Nelson. Hardly what i call a gatekeeper.

    PS: Suggested fight to watch of his Leija vs Nelson II One of the most perfect fights ive seen someone fight. He outclassed a still great Azumah Nelson.

    Yey maybe as an old Junior Welter,but you dont judge a fighter by the way he fought at the end. I get the feeling you didnt see him much in his prime to have that opinion.

    Lopez has fought better competition than any of those guys you mentioned,hes also been ranked longer I believe that Lopez should get a shot before those 3.

    You have a point Lopez has been shafted in terms of getting title shot Rubio pulled out of a eliminator they were going have for shot at Pavlik:twisted:
