vs
I think this fight is pitch perfect for both fighters at their respective points in their careers. They have both recently made huge advancements against heavily favored opposition they were not expected to gain triumph over initially; Paulie with a foreign TKO victory over Vyacheslav Senchenko and Lopez with a classic, underdog win over Victor Ortiz. Style wise, they are fire and ice and I think it would make for an explosive clash that could end abruptly for either of them. If Paulie won, he could showcase to home-country boxing fans his threatening skills and go on to face greater opposition in Bradley, bite into the Ortiz drama, or a comeback fight for Mayweather. If Lopez won, he would earn his right of passage in to the "A-Ranking" sanctum and become a brand name. To top it off, they are both classy and tough as hell.
What do you guys think?
