Re: Thomas Hearns vs. Yaqui Lopez
A barrage of punches by Alvaro "Yaqui" Lopez in the 7th round and the fight is over. I don't think that the great Thomas Hearns, even with that KO power, stops Yaqui
It would have been a brutal fight. Lopez was a very aggressive fighter. And to beat The Hitman, you must apply constant pressure. And at light-heavyweight, Lopez was very strong.

Sounds correct to me.
Re: Thomas Hearns vs. Yaqui Lopez
The Hitman by decision after out-boxing Lopez behind his long range jabs and right hands without engaging him on the inside.
