Salido stops Lopez!! Is this it for Juan Ma?

[Majesty]

Come on now guys this is overboard. Lopez's career isn't over just as Mosley's wasn't over after he lost twice to Forrest or Forrest's career after he lost twice to Mayorga.

Granted this one was a particularly brutal loss and war, but Lopez can still beat some other top guys. Salido just has his number is all.

Juan Manuel Lopez is still a world class talent, just needs to possibly get a new trainer and/or seriously work on his defense.

The difference between Mosley and Forrest's losses were in the rematches they were both close and depending on who you talk to questionable, but neither second fight was a beatdown and Forrest didn't really sustain a beating nor did Mosley aside from the round Forrest dropped him in.


But Lopez has just been stopped twice, one you could say was questionable but in this fight he was battered around the ring, dished out all he could and got knocked out even worse than last time, he took a beating like Mugabi took from Hagler. And even tonight Juanma looked gunshy and his legs went whenever he got hit with a hard punch regardless on whether he recovered fast or not, I didn't like the way his legs shook when he got hit by Salido's left hand early in the fight. It was very Meldrick Taylor post Chavez-like.

That plus Lopez didn't seem to fight with confidence, he had confidence when he dropped Salido, and then when he went out for the 6th and was hit again he went back into his shell. I think mentally Juanma doesn't want to be knocked out again, I think mentally he's ruined. So even if he comes back, he won't be the same fighter, mentally or physically. And when you aren't the same mentally, get out while you still can sustain yourself physically.

I disagree Barrera came back after Junior Jones, Morales after being twice stopped by Pac Man.

It can be done.

Didn't see Lopez behaving nearly as gun shy as Roy Jones did after his KO loss to tarver. Lopez was intimidated by Salido sure, but nothing to that degree.

Time will tell.

But to hastily say Lopez's career is over because of two losses is childish in my opinion.
