    The thing with Lopez is he was such a good fighter that I rate him higher than I would other people who had similar levels of opposition. Its not that he fought a parade of bums, but he doesn't have the opposition of SRL, Hearns, Hagler, Duran, PBF, Morales, Barrera, Pac, even Oscar, and it goes on.

    Would have liked to have seen a Carbajal fight.

    I have no idea how long ago it was that I did this thread, just noticed it at the bottom of the screen

    I would disagree, his resume is not among the very elite just in terms of pure opposition but he is a first ballot hall of famer clearly IMO.

    Also check out Sorjaturong's fight with Chiquita Gonzalez if you haven't seen it.

    Such nice footwork and balance

    Kind of a crappy feed though.

    Just depends, obviously the later you go in his career the better, there's a good Petelo feed, the Ohashi fight isn't that great.

    I've always wanted to see his 2nd fight with Rosendo Alvarez, but i've looked all over and so far nothing. I've been looking for atleast over a year, i've heard such much about it i would love to see it.

    Lopez was pure class and quality.Two major strikes against him IMO....he was at Strawweight or 'minimumweight' (how insulting is that) and had little 'mainstream' appeal,name recognition,no english....should not be held against him.He was a puncher but at the same time a styalist and pin point accurate hitter....I also dont think King did him any favors at times by sticking him on undercards as an after thought.Would have loved a jump up to meet Carbajal...who in contrast had the Olympics,ESPN up bringing and big push.Lopez is a Great,period!!His comp was there,he just swept them up...Nene,Alvarez 1,2 (all time brutal scrap),Grigsby,Ohashi,Sorjaturong,Petelo......Now Porpaoin,that would have been nice
