    Nice intense Vid there.Awesome find.Lopez was a sensation with laser sighting on his punches.Shame King kept him buried on cards early on while all along he was, in many cases, the best fighter he had. It seems he is one of those greats that is fully realized only after the career is completed.Prior to him and not until the sun was setting on Lopez's career,Ring Magazine did not even recognize 105 in the rankings.

    It always frustrated me that he would not jump up and tangle with many guys mentioned.The dream fight was with Carbajal who,with the two fisted help of Humberto Gonzalez,was busy putting the Jr.Flys on the map.Lopez vs. Carbajal would have been a great battle.I Love Carbajal, one of my all time favorites.But all things considered.....Lopez beats him.Oh that hurt just to say.I think Lopez could manage the weight and takes a tough 12 round decision.Carbajal was stellar but he could be boxed.If you only boxed on the back foot,Carbajal would cut you down and assert himself,nice left hooks.But if you boxed him and used mobility AND brought a decent punch (and yes,a good chin) you could pull it off.Gonzalez made very nice adjustments in their follow up meetings with strong boxing,even with a crimson mask.I thought Michael took the 2nd fight,scoring objectively,of course.

    Lopez was just too damn mobile/versatile,very accurate pin point combination puncher and could come off the back foot so fast or off the side to touch you up badly before you knew what hit you,kept you very honest and if you wavered,he would take you out .

    I'll say the guy that probably tested him was Rosendo Alvarez. Some people were questioning the draw and he was the only guy to knock him down ever in his career and leave his face full of blood. I would have to go see it again. His victory against Vorapin was nice. A guy with KO power who I believe is still fighting in Asia.

    Perfect poise, balance, skills, jab, right hand, left hook. What is there not to like about the perfect fighter.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
