If Lopez learned anything from that fight, it's that he has to remove the judges from the game by removing his opponents if he fights in their backyard. The good news about Lopez is that he is fighting on a neutral ground in the US, so he won't have to worry about being given a job by the judges. In addition, Leo does not focus on roughhouse tactics, such as using hips and hitting below the belt.

Lopez, 30, didn't get as much attention for this fight as his peers, perhaps because Leo was beaten by Stephen Fulton a few years ago by a 12-round unanimous decision.

#10 IBF Leo has won his last four fights, putting him in a position to challenge Venado Lopez for his title. It is difficult to ask Leo, 30, because he is not a striker and will have a hard time dealing with Lopez's striking power. If Angelo Leo can't stop Lopez, it's going to be a long night.
