Steve Leuvano v Juan Manuel Lopez

[Rantcatrat]

I like Lopez in this one, but I hear ya Sheep - Lueveno is definitely a live dog. I plan to be at this fight. Anyone else? Gamboa versus Mtagtwa too.

How great is it that these two fights are happening?

I think Gamboa stays true to form and gets off the deck to overwhelm and stop Mtagwa.

All of a sudden Featherweight is becoming a very well stacked division, Molitor has also moved up (I haven't written him off yet), Jhonny Gonzalez will also be putting in more Featherweight battles and finally Celestino Caballero will definately be entering the Featherweight ranks as well. A very exciting year ahead at 126.

Rafa looked very sharp in his comeback, but I gotta ask how much can these guys have left? I mean they left so much of themselves in the ring during their trilogy. But yes I do concede they are also there now.

i agree Vazquez looked the more worn out of the two though

i agree that on paper, juanma should do away with luevano but on paper, wilfredo gomez was also supposed to dispose of salvador sanchez as well. not saying juanma is as good as gomez or luevano as sal sanchez but there are similiarities in this fight. gomez was thought of as this ferocious and he was, but when he went up against the very intelligent, counterpunching sanchez, he was suddenly in a world of trouble. the same could happen here. and don't be deceived by luevano's low KO ration because he does have deceptive KO power as witnessed when he floored mario santiago. this fight is a toss-up imo.

and we've also seen him squeak out a dq win when he was on the verge of being ko'd

Hopefully the way Juanma struggled last time out was due to making the weight. If it turns out he doesn't have the same kind of power up at featherweight he could be in for a long night. I'm picking him to win though.
