Up-and-coming boxing superstar Luis Alberto Lopez is going to defend his title against Joet Gonzales, Lopez has beaten some of the top names in the featherweight division, has beaten Josh Warrington to win the IBF belt then knock out the popular Irish fighter Mike Conlan, this fight is a questionable pick because Joet Gonzales loss 3 of his fights but those three losses come from tough champions

Shakur Stevenson, Emanuel Navarrete, and Isaac Dogboe

I've created this as an introduction to Luis Alberto Lopez for boxing fans here who are not aware of who Lopez is, I like the guy's style, very aggressive and always comes  forward this is his recent fight

Joet Gonzales is one guy who never backs out of a fight and is a very tough fighter in the ring, the kind of fighter that you want to see if you want all action

This has the making of a good fight as both fighters do not know how to back up, this is good boxing to watch

I first saw Luis Alberto Lopez when he fought the then-favorite Gabe Flores Jr, this Flores is a bully but Lopez teaches him a lesson in boxing, it's like watching an amateur and a pro, Lopez is too good against Flores and from then on he becomes a champion and now he is defending it for the second time, remind me of Arce small but pack power with his punches.

This is the video of the Lopez - Flores Jr. match https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkdsHLIkb_Y

After Inoue beat Fulton, he could unite the Bantamweight division by beating Tapales, he is going to be a heavy favorite here, and the next stop will be the Featherweight division and here in the featherweight division, one of the champions that he could face and oppose Inoue is Luis Alberto Lopez, he is a natural Featherweight who loves to slug it out so better check the guy's performance against Joet, Lopez keeps getting better in every fight he loves to take punches so he can give on his own.


Here's one of his fights before he became champion he is the underdog here

I'm initially on Gonzalez on this one from looking at the tape but I can't be sure anymore after reading his way of fighting. It will be a waste of that reach advantage if he's not going to dance around while making full use of his jabs. I'm going to watch more of their previous fights before deciding to bet.

Joet has fought the best fighters in his division and if there is one thing good about him is his toughness, both fighters are tough, but Lopez has a better ring generalship I already decided on this one I have Lopez here winning by stoppage or decision after knocking out Conlan it establish his reputation, it reminds me of Arce they have the same style, the same aggressiveness and he is a real Mexican warrior.
I have seen four of Lopez's videos so far and he is good to watch no boring moments he always goes forward even if he is also facing a slugger like him.

[robelneo]

The fight is going to happen two weeks from now, Lopez already hinted that he wants to fight Inoue after he beat Gonzales, so there is a possibility of unifying the title against WBO featherweight champion Robeisy Ramirez, but they want a fight that will attract big attention and big money so they opted to fight Inoue if he beats Tapales and decides to move up in the featherweight division instead of unifying the featherweight title.
What do you think, Can he match Inoue's speed and power, Lopez is a tough fighter but I doubt if he can subdue the Monster if they meet in the ring, I believe Inoue can carry his speed and power even in the featherweight.

Luis Alberto Lopez Wants Inoue After Joet González “Robeisy Can’t Sell”

[FinneysTrueVision]

Joet Gonzalez has come up short in his previous attempts at conquering a world title and I don't see the outcome being any different this time. Lopez's resume speaks for itself. He has beaten an undefeated prospect and has back to back wins in the UK.

Robeisy is not a draw but neither is "El Venado" Lopez. Inoue has options if he decides to move up. Unifying the division is a great way to become a frontrunner amongst those options.

Once Lopez wins maybe he will have a unifying bout with Ramirez.
Conlan was actually a good contender to fight Lopez but the man seemed to be in a hurry and gassed out in the end. Despite the head movement, it just took one shot. Quite a fun fight to watch.  No assurance he can win vs. Gonzalez though, he is also a tough opponent. One can say it's not an easy fight for Lopez.

There are interesting matches on the card like Xander Zayas vs Roberto Valenzuela. This is worth watching also.

And yet he is not considered a top-drawer with all these good fights, Lopez is such an underrated and his camps know it but until Inoue goes up he needs to fight whoever can give him a good reputation in the ring, one thing that draws me to Lopez is he was never been hurt in all of his fights.

This guy has a good chin and body, and he loves to come in he may not have an excellent ring generalship but his moves are imposing enough, if ever Lopez is the real opposition to Inoue's road to greatness.

I can see these two clash in the future, Lopez started this idea so We'll see if Inoue's camp is ready to take this idea for them to meet in the ring after they both hurdle their respective opponents.

I'll watch the fight I want to see great action, Lopez is a good prospect in the boxing world his style is very much similar to Jorge Arce and Fernando Montiel, he is a small guy but loves to mix it up in the future he'll have a lot of great fights and I see him fighting Navarette in the future or even Pitbull Cruz.
I expect Lopez to knock out Gonzalez probably in the late rounds, Lopez loves to punish his opponents before knocking them out just like in his last fight against Conlan.

It's really a blessing that Top Rank is showing its fights for free through Facebook and YouTube. Just like coin-investor I also first saw Luis Alberto Lopez against that arrogant hype Gabriel Flores Jr. And the next time I heard him is when he was given his first title shot against Josh Warrington. I was rooting for him but I honestly did not expect him to win in the UK. Lopez is really underrated and I assume he was underdogs against Flores Jr. Warrington and Conlan.

Joel Gonzales is another popular Mexican prospect but he always loses every time he steps up in competition. He lost to Shakur, Navarette and Dogboe. One thing is sure though, he is one tough contender so this fight might be 50/50. I doubt Lopez can hurt Joet so he better be ready for a 12-round war because his opponent will keep pressing him.

As for Lopez's future, I think he better stay at 126 and try to unify the belts first before considering moving up to 130 for Navarette. Also, an Inoue fight at 126 will give him the biggest money compared to Navarette and Cruz at 135. So he better keep that belt around his waist and try to lure Inoue to move up.

That's good to know I don't have to look for links to watch it for free all I have to do is wake up early to watch the fight, I wonder why only in these three countries, is Top Rank promoting boxers in these cards to these countries, Top Rank and DAZN are two of the promotions that let countries to watch their events for free I hope other promotions will follow their leads to promote their unpopular fighters.

[Ziskinberg]

It's great that this thread has been bumped. It's happening tomorrow, so hopefully, we will be able to find a free stream online. Personally, I'm not familiar with these fighters, although their names might be well-known. Whoever wins this fight might have a chance to face Inoue if he decides to move up. Judging from their statistics, there's nothing particularly interesting as they aren't KO artists or they only have a low KO rate.

Anyway, I think I would choose Gonzalez to win, as he has the height and reach advantage.

[TravelMug]

It's probably the last chance of Gonzalez for a world title, he has lost to some of the best, Shakur Stevenson, and Emmanuel Navarette. However, I would say that Luis Alberto Lopez is a good champion and not sure if Gonzalez has the tools to defeat him.

For me this is not going to last for 12 rounds, I would say that Lopez might win in less that 10 rounds via knockout. It's just going to be very difficult for Gonzalez unless he had earn that experience already in a championship fight, just saying.

[Kemarit]

This is going to be the last ticket of Gonzalez to try to become a champion. He had other chances before, but it was against the top dog of that division that time.
On the case of Lopez though, this guy solid, he travelled to England and beat their champion in Josh Warrington.
And then go to Ireland this time for his first defense against Conlan and knock him out.
As per bookies, Gonzalez is 7:1 underdog so that speak for itself how though this fight is going for him to finally win a belt.
I doubt that he can do it against Alberto Lopez.

[robelneo]

The fight is a give-and-take between the two fighters but Lopez is getting the most out of the exchanges this is a fast-paced fight one of them could lose a gas if this goes in the championship rounds I have Lopez ahead by 2 rounds here, check out the live feed here.

UPDATE: Luis Alberto Lopez retains his title via unanimous decision It was a great fight but Gonzalez cannot keep up with Lopez's rapid punching and good ring generalship.

Kudos to Gonzales for going the distance despite being outgunned by Lopez. It was clear from the start that Gonzales had no opportunity to win as he does not have that pop that could intimidate Lopez but nevertheless, it was a good fight.

One thing i observed on Lopez was that his defense wasn't so good and this is crucial if he fought Inoue in the future as i think Top Rank will be cooking this fight to make Inoue a 4-division champion as Lopez is very beatable.
