This guy looked sharp in dispatching the big punching Ponce De Leon. I was very very impressed with him even though we didn't get much of a chance to see how solid he'd be for the duration of a fight. Who needs that, though? With performances like that, forget about going the distance. I see more early, crowd-pleasing victories coming his way. Granted, De Leon has never been confused for being Sweet Pea, but he got worn out like I would have gotten worn out. Puerto Rico has got to be psyched. They already knew about Cotto on the fast track to welterweight and maybe even pound-for-pound supremacy. Now they've got another guy who just might ride straight to the top with him. Congrats to Lopez.

The way he looked last night, it might not even take that long.

I was impressed! He's one of the future P4P fighters for sure.

I would love to see him fight Marquez/Vazquez but im guessing they fight each other again and again until there both dead...

:laugh::laugh::laugh: Those would be great fights for him. I'm even expecting for him to move up in weight someday and challenge Pacquiao.

I wouldn't mind. They are bloody soul mates.

got bck from Atlantic City today and what can I say about this kid. I was most defenately impressed with the way he dispatched of Ponce. I haven't seen the hbo playback yet but I know it will look impressive on there as well. Ponce came out determined at the bell I'll give him that, they both came to fight. very surprised Juan jacked him up that fast though.:thumbsup:
