Wow, some might say it's a bit early for Juanma, but if he forms a good plan, Ponce De Leon is beatable.

Yea Donny and that doesn't at all , JuanMa said that is his turn now , he had been waiting for this moment patiently to aspire for a World Title.
" Now the fight is done , we get at the last agreements and this is a reality ".......commented Lopez
" Now I'm more peaceful to know that my focus going be just in Ponce D`Leon , now i know that i going face against him and not with any other boxer ".......

1-The journalist ask him How he looks to you , now that you looked him face to face?
" Well in TV the people looks more bigger , i heard from people that i looks like 140pnd , but personally i looks like Ivan Calderon , Ponce D`Leon is a normal and a strong boxer , though a great warrior . I saw him fighting a few times and i know that i have to prepare for that "........

2-Then , Shouldn't you get at your limit ?
" Definitely no. I know that i going win by KO , between 8th and 10th round , i always saying , probably will get at the limit , because Ponce D`Leon is good boxer , assimilate and always comes in a great conditions , but i will get to the limit , i will prepare for that if that happen"........

Juanma Lopez bet , that his fist potential going be the key to convert in next Champion #58 in P.R. history.......
" Ponce D`Leon receive the straight of left , right hooks , that are the shots that always received and if we see both are my best shots , he fight open , you have try fight him at short distance , avoid run because i see that he is disorganize and can hit when you comes in , so is better be facing him counter punch ".........
He going start his training sessions with some local boxers and U.S boxers as Jhonattan Gonzales , Juan Cruz and Pascali Adorno a southpaw boxer , similarly as Ponce D`Leon.......

3- Do you worry on his power punch ?
" I don't underestimate any boxer. I know that Ponce D`Leon is a hard hitter too , but I'm going prepare for avoid that he connect me with his hard hand that his straight left ".........

4- Do you think this is ones of reasons in which some peoples doubt yet on this fight because never seen you in problems ?
" Theres who think that i never received a good shots , but in my fight #10 i received a shot that put me in really bad condition and Cuauhtemoc Vargas hit me with a right shot that exploded me an ear in the first round , i have experience receiving shots , some people think that i didn't fight yet with nobody , but the thing is , that when i come up to the ring i do my job , if they receive a KO , that is part of the game "..........

That was an interview in P.R..........here is some Pics......

gr8 pics MACHO.........

i don't know this might be a little ify for JUANMA. that chin looks like a welcoming party for PONCE but who knows this is set to be a gr8 match.

to be honest I never heard of Lopez, going by his record he seems to have good power but has never really fought anyone on Ponce De Leon's level. I was hoping De Leon might have got a fight with Vasquez or Marquez, hopefully if he wins this it might happen
