Lopez vs Salido

[Violent Demise]

Lopez biggest problem is he's always been a sucker for the right hand. He was very lucky to have faced an injured 65% Marquez

his defense used to be a hell of a lot sharper, he's just gotten lazy and kinda egocentric with his power, by the 5th round Salido wasn't landing only the right hand but the left hook as well, all of that was due to Lopez' defensive laziness and his own ego thinking he could come back just cause of his power

He was. But it was the right constantly landing that open the door for the left

one thing i didn't get at all either was, Juanma was having success early on with the 1,2 , why the hell didn't he then shoot the right to the body, and work the body when he would back Salido up, his guard was spot on tonight, so Juanma should have tried to bring it down with body work

Really I think fighting in Puerto Rico is one of the worse things Lopez should be doing. He tries to impress to much and gets away from what's working for him in order to try and score the stoppage

completely agree, i said it earlier in the thread, that he was fighting for the crowd instead of boxing and using his jab to work in the shots down the middle

[No Contest]

I think it was stopped early, but was probably going to happen eventually. Juanma showed some good toughness, just couldnt get away from those hooks. That first knockdown was a brutal left hook then a brutal right hook, was surprised he got up from that one.

Taking the prior two rounds into account and the fact that his head was bouncing around like a pinball, I'm not gonna think too harshly on the ref for the stoppage. Sure he was fighting back, but there was nothing on his shots and Salido was landing at will. JuanMa has been into heavy trouble more than a few fights now, that has to be considered as well.

juanma was throwing but not connecting. he got hit too much and is pretty much throwing punches in the air just to survive.

Up until he got knocked down in the 5th round, Lopez seemed to think this fight was going to be a walk in the park. Lot's of credit to Salido for taking JuanMa's title, and becoming the new WBO featherweight champion.
