Can anyone give me more info on Juan Manuel Lopez?
CC. Linares looks pretty good. I don't know if he and Valero are with the same people but its possible. I don't know exactly when Linares and Ponce sparred, I read about it I think about 2 or 3 months ago but I'm not sure when it happened. Keep in mind he is a bit bigger than Ponce although I could see his style giving Ponce some problems.



I've only seen Lopez once, it was on the undercard of some PPV, can't remember which. He looked pretty good, although he was fighting a guy brought in to lose, but that's no different than most prospects. If I remember correctly he was a southpaw, kind of a counterpuncher but looked like he had some power too. Looked pretty good.
LOL,yeah,I can imagine Ponce being schooled by someone who is a technically astute boxer. I'll keep my eye out for Lopez. I tell you who is a good fighter,someone we have spoken about before, Lorenzo Parra. I saw some more of him,he's really impressive,does everything well.

Great prospect from the Philippines:

Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista

W21 L0 D0 KO16

Age: 20

Peace
Cool Clci,I#m really really impressed by Boom Boom and I'm glad he has opted not to rush into a fight with Ponce De Leon,Ponce would savage him at this point but I think in a years time, Boom Boom will be a handful for anyone. Anyone likie Z Gorres? I have yet to see him fight,meant to be really good though.
