who takes it..?

Funny you put this up, I just finished watching this fight on Title Bout an hour ago. Lopez won a close MD, I tend to agree with that except maybe a bit more clear. Ivan is slick, but he would have to come within range and Ricardo had great accuracy. Would love to see it.

Don't need to tell most of you who gets my vote.

Short of God, Lopez isn't losing to anyone with me. Man was pure, unadulterated magic.

Lopez beats Calderon fairly clearly, and possibly stops him. Calderon's slickness and speed have long been his saving grace in making opponents looks like unskilled brawlers, but Lopez had just as much ring intelligence, along with similar handspeed, greater power and longer reach. Lopez only ever had trouble with the naturally bigger and stronger KO-punch swarmer Rosendo Alvarez. Calderon wouldt give Lopez much to fear and I think Lopez would chase him down and beat him up when he cuts off the ring like the less-skilled Cazares nearly did.

I think standing off of Lopez & trying to be cute would be a recipe for disaster.

Really, in all likelihood you'd probably have to start naming off All-Time Flyweights before I'd favor anyone to beat Lopez (and even then it'd be iffy). he was just so supremely skilled that I could picture him even making the ATGs at 108 look foolish unless some of the heavier handed ones (Carbajal, Gonzalez) could lay hands on him.

Everything was a disaster when you fought Lopez 8)

Lopez by a wide decision or late stoppage.

Ivan CaldeRUN is a complete joke. El Finito would stop him late into the fight, possibly 9th or 10th round.

I don't even know why this poll is up, to tell you the truth.
