He did all the talking he needed to do with his right hand and his left.Quote:

I picked him all along but have to say part of that was me just wanting him to win, I thought he could do it but wasn't totally convinced, but all along I never bought into the idea that he was another Bautista.
Great stuff, he may be cracking my top ten favorite fighters.
Check this out. :)

What is about Puerto Rican fighters these days and that kind of little hop step thing they do as far as footwork goes? Anybody notice the way JuanMa moves is a little like Cotto? Hard to explain but that kind of hop step they do is similar.
I may not be making any sense :confused:
Yea. He does move like Cotto with the peek-a-boo style and footwork.Quote:

Lopez was outstanding. I thought he was going to get smashed. Instead he did the smashing. The way he did it was impressive. Very calm and composed. And I give credit to Macho and Rican. They called it from the beginning.
Thanks for the credits Violent Demise .....................;DQuote:

Great pix Macho. Thanks!
I dont think he can be called a sensation just yet. Impressive he was, I really didnt expect him to get him out of there so quick. I thought it was bit too much of a step up for him. But that hes first decent fighter beaten. A wild swinger, in comparison with the other fighters at 122 isnt as well rounded as them. The road for him to being called a sensation has just started and dont get me wrong hes impressive, but a sensation isnt the word for him...yet. I look forward to seeing more from him, he would give problems to most fighters at 122.
Thanks for the shout out VD. For once I called a fight the right way!! Juanma did it so easily that it's scary!! I hope HBO/Showtime and the powers that be put this kid on tv more. I'm tired of having to travel to PR, or Mohegan Sun, or Chicago to watch this star!!Quote:
