    Great fighter, I wish he would have fought Too sharp Johnson in the catchweight fight that was offered...It was really his one shot at making a big splash. Plus I think it would have been on the the biggest fights that could have been made at the time...Not in terms of money but in terms of two p4p meeting.

    He was good no doubt and worthy of his atg status but his competition was not the best. He tends to be a bit overrated to be honest.

    nice vid of Ric Lopez.

    I must make time to view more of him, I heard Morales say Lopez was the best Mexican fighter today - this was when EM & MAB were in their primes early 2000s - so he must have been good.

    I also hear that Lopez opponents were not that great, thats a shame, nothing worse than a great fighter being born in the wrong era were he cant prove his ATGness.

    Eder Jofre was a pretty good fighter in the lower weight class.
