Danny 'Little Red' Lopez ~ Career

Danny Lopez

It was a real good fight. Jose Torres was a lot better than I thought he was. I saw him fight on TV a few
times, and he looked good. But, he's a lot tougher than I thought.

I went down in Round 2, but I wasn't hurt. It was good punch on the 'chops', and I went down. But I
was clear headed.

I didn't know a lot about Jose Torres, but I found out that he could punch. But he also could take one
as well. He fought hard in every round. He's one tough Cookie.

I'm lucky that they stopped the fight after the 7th Round. I was very tired during the Round, and my
right-hand swelled up. I was in pain, and I'm not sure how many more Rounds I could have fought.

Now, I'm going to take 6-Weeks off, and come back in November. I'll probably take another 10-Round
non-title bout to stay sharp.

I guess I'll be defending my Title against #1 WBC-ranked - David Kotey in early-1978.
