Salvador Sanchez vs Danny Lopez 2, what a performance. A master at work.

Feel sorry for Little Red coming across a guy like Sanchez, who would be just about the worst matchup for him possible at the weight. That granite chin and fifteen round stamina just strip any chance out of him being able to chin-check or wear down his opponent. He was never going to be all that competitive, but I do think Lopez looked a little shopworn in these two fights as well. The years of takings lots of punches and having to impose himself fully to win fights had taken a notch or two out of his speed and workrate compared to the circa Kotey/Olivares peak.
