Official Josesito Lopez Will Win Thread

[greynotsoold]

The other night I was talking to a kind I used to train (he is 32 now, has a daughter and owns two homes), and I think he used to spar with lopez. Neither of us can remember for sure (though I know he did spar several times with a guy that is currently 27-5 as a pro, having lost to Guzman a couple fights back). All that aside, it would be a really good thing if Lopez won, and I think some collective good will might help. Not to take sides, just that Lopez go out, fight his fight, and let his hands go.
I spent a lot of time in the gyms in Riverside (Calif.), and every story I tell of boxing treachery, I learned in those same gyms. But they were good times, and the guy that originally trained lopez was a very good man. I met him at the Forum, the same night I met Azumah Nelson. He was working with Yori Campos at the time and Yori tried to charge me $5 to shake his hand. This was just after the Trinidad fight, and I was amazed that Campos was still ambulatory. The trainer and I sat next to one another and talked through the card, and he invited me out to the gym where he trained his fighters in Riverside.
A lot of fond memories, and it would be good if Lopez stopped Ortiz.

That's cool, and in truth I know nothing of Lopez at all However I'm still going to hope Ortiz wins this one in style. I think he'll matchup very well with Canelo Alvarez and give him a great test, should that come off as planned.

haha

Seriously ?

I've always liked Campas and thought him a pretty humble guy. Shame he quit in every one of his losses.

Anyway Ortiz is an idiot, but he is a beast. If Lopez can do it then it will be a good upset.

Nice Story about Yori. As for Lopez winning? I don't see it. I see Ortiz inflicting a first stoppage tonight!

Well...it happened.

Thanks to Ortiz quitting again, but he seemed to have a broken jaw so who could blame him this time.

Made my day...I'm 6 tall cans into my celebration.

Good call. Although you didn't really say Lopez would stop Ortiz, but hey, it happened.

[greynotsoold]

I didn't think he'd stop him. I was just hoping. And I'm 12 tall cans into my celebration.

I bet you had a good buzz going, haha.

Still do. I think a fight with Bradley is the way to go for Lopez. Beat Bradley, then fight Ortiz again.
