It should be a good one. How do you see this playing? Will Concepcion spoil the future plans? Will the 99 year old JuanMa finally show his age? Will him being at 135 help him? Will Concepcion be at a disadvantage coming in at 115? :rofl :rofl This content is protected Name: Juan Manuel Lopez Age: 99 Height: 67 IN Weight: 135 LB Reach: 69 IN Record: 28-0-0 25 KO's vs Name: Bernabe Concepcion Age: 22 Height: 64 IN Weight: 115 LB Reach: 64 IN Record: 30-2-1 17 KO's http://sports.sho.com/boxing/events/lopez-concepcion-jul-10-2010.html :deal :deal :deal :deal :deal
Even if JuanMa has a worse "off night" than he did against Mtagwa, he will beat Concepcion easily. Concepcion in a title fight is a joke.
Concepcion earned it by defeating Mario Santiago. Concepcion is also WBO #5 ranked featherweight contender. I think the champ can defend his title against any of the top 10 (or top 15) contenders.
mtagwa doesn't know how to throw a punch compared to concepcion. juanma better not take him too lightly
Wow really IB? I know the guy has limitations but he has some skills too. It wasn't long ago he was being heralded as something exceptional by some. I think he could have beaten Luevano if he didn't hit him late in what I felt was unintentional, and yes, Santiago came out and dominated him in the end of their match.....BC needs better conditioning, but he seems to look great in spurts, top notch. Not saying he wins here, but I wouldn't say he is a joke.
Concepcion is a worthy opponent and JML shouldnt take him lightly. I will be at the fight and I expect a late TKO right around the time Concepcion starts gassing.
