I think Lopez can pull it out but by no means is this an easy fight!

Point taken. The other thing to worry about is that Machine Gun, unlike most Thai fighters with great records, has actually fought decent opposition. I may have to revise my thinking on this one a bit more.

Still, that loud crown in Bayamon might be a factor. The other thing is that the only time he fought outside of Thailand, he lost (to Montiel). This will be only the second time he has fought outside his home country. Interesting stuff.
Your right most Thai fighters don't travel well! But Lopez although he has been in very good recent form is no Montiel & although he knocked Montiel down when they fought he was beaten much more convincingly!

This is a great cross roads fight!!!
