Ricardo Lopez vs. Saman Sorjaturong

[kerokatsu1]

ウンベルト・ゴンザレスにＫＯ勝ちしたサマンに付け入る隙を与え­ず、文句無しのＫＯ勝ちしたリカルド・ロペスは、とても凄いと思­います。ボクサーの鏡だと思います。

[josemezatorrez]

When they asked trainer Nazeem Richardson who was the GOAT,he said I dont know but I can tell you my favorite fighter was Lopez,when in his prime he was almost the perfect boxer,superb defense and offense.

[MsEdy52]

otro guerrero azteca mas que pasa a la inmortalidad, tal vez de los 5 boxeadores mas tecnicos de toda la historia del boxeo mundial, librede escandalos y ademas un caballero dentro del ring.

[adanjunior]

La Chiquita his mistake was no to finished him, that's why he lost.

[adanjunior]

Ricardo was much better, He thaught the other dude how to box, he was just a pounching bag...

[amck72]

@adanjunior Ricardo was a far better all around fighter..Samon was far from a punching bag....he complained that he had issues with the weight. I didn`t believe it as much, but when he moved up and beat Humberto I was convinced

[User2308117]

For those Ippo fans out there, Lopez is supposedly the inspiration for Ricardo Martinez.

[TehRubson09]

According to Finito, this fight was one of the few where he openly attacked since Saman was that kind of fighter who create a bump wherever he landed a punch.

"This guy will destroy me if I don't finish him soon", so he finished him soon.

[memojr29]

@yllibotiv He's working as a tv commentarist for "televisa" in mexico.. and otherwise he handled his earns as a boxer very well... so he is doing it very good.

[skyly02]

サマンもスーパーと言える王者となりましたが、

ロペスの強さはさらにその上を行きましたね。



[josemezatorrez]

Ricardo Lopez es uno de tres boxeadores en retirarse invictos.Tambien tiene el record de mas defensas de Campeonatos con 26,igualando a Joe Louis.Unos de los grandes del ring Mexicano.

[autentikadamita]

UNAS DE LAS MEJORES PELEAS

[parracatau]

los marquez son una buena copia de ricardo en cuuanto a tecnica, pero ricardo es de otro planeta. el mejor

[Bustanez]

@parracatau asi es este Finito tenia tecnica y poder en ambos, gancho de izq de plomo y derecha que remataba, mi RESPETO , imaginense tener uno asi en welter,

[memojr29]

@parracatau El que mas se le parece es juan manuel creo yo, por que rafael me parece que es mas fajador que contragolpeador.

[jose539p3]

el boxeador mas tecnico que a tenido MEXICO. antes de empeser cada raun presenta la guardia..chingon

[ailife0608]

ロペスは立ち振る舞いからしてアスリートそのものだ。ロペスこそ­ボクシング、いやスポーツそのものだと思う。

[aob777]

Saman is Thai dude

[saman1820]

saman to my name saman

[lcvd1]

Ricardo Lopez---the only undefeated Champion...PERIOD!

[catwan1]

Ricardo Lopez　vs　Román González

I wanted to see the game .

： From Japan

[EdwardianWords]

Ricardo Lopez is one of my favorite boxers. He is masterful.

[KTF0]

Sorjaturong eventually won a world title against Humberto Gonzalez. He was no slouch. Lopez still blew him away.

Yeah Finito almost lost to Alvarez, but keep in mind that Finito had the title for 8 years prior to that match!!

[Kedbuka]

Beautiful fighter, El Finito. Really special, that one.

[gallero760]

Finito ass punked a lot of fucking Thai boxers. Pinchis peleadores Thai, le pelaron los huevos al finito.

[lorenzodemedici1]

Great fighter, Lopez was overlooked because he fought at straw weight and jr. flyweight, but hardcore boxing fans appreciate his skills.

[nobbin19]

great fighter but almost lost to Alvarez

[Ashtree1976]

@nobbin19 he didn't lose to Alvarez and it shouldn't have been a draw!

[mrdjmb007]

Finito one of the best fighters in the world to my opinion. Not for nothing but i see a lot of similarities between finito lopez & Juan Manuel Marquez. They are both trained by Nacho Beriztain so maybe that's the reson why. I love the way Finito changes stands n confuses his oponents. He makes it seem so easy to do and he's so smooth with his punches. Viva Mexico los mejores boxeadores del mundo

[vergitacha]

Finito Lopez was the last great fighter that Cuyo Hernandez made, Nacho Beristain took a lot of the way Hernandez train hes fighter, like with the guard real high and stuff like that. After Hernandez was dead, Tiburcio Garcia became hes trainer and then Nacho Beristain going the team.

[jose539p3]

@mrdjmb007 tienes razon

[bnygarcia]

eres grande Finito....eres grande

[OCOTLAN51]

viva mexico putos

[LEGIONARIO1970]

Mucha pieza El Finito!!!

[takiiiiiii]

強いわ。

パンチの振りが違う。

細身だが全身のバネ、スピードがあるのにグローブにハンマーが入­っているような重みを感じる。

そしてデイフェンスと精度、タイミング。

[toonny4618]

ดีครับ

[kalaslsl]

Is this Japanese?

[sean163686]

A lot of Lopez's fights that I have are in Japanese or with Japanese audio (international broadcasts), so I assume this one is as well.

[yukicisco]

Yes, it is reported in Japanese.  The 2 Japanese commentators kept saying how perfect Lopez is.

"It is very hard to find weakness in him."

" He 's really cautious,so never pushes himself even when he knows it's a chance to rush, as long as a risk is still there,he doesn't chase too far"

[kalaslsl]

Thanks for the translation.

[BrotherJR76]

@yukicisco

Thanks a lot for the transation

[tanga777]

@kalaslsl yes, its japanese.

[tingmju]

@kalaslsl No ,He Is Thai.

[AbuKhamrAlMaseeHee]

Thank you for posting this! I read about this fight, but never saw it.

I remember after the fight happened, Ring Magazine (or perhaps a sister publication, like KO) did an interview with Lopez, in which he said his arm was injured by a punch from Sorjaturong (Lopez then said Sorjaturong hit *very* hard). I kept thinking about that interview leading up to Sorjaturong's PPV fight against Humberto Gonzalez (and thus while many did not know who he was, I was not surprised when he KO'd Chiquita).

[CRAZYM3X187]

that's funny saman beat gonzalez but ricardo got him back!!

[mongoose135]

Actually...Ricardo beat saman. Then, 2 years later, saman beat Gonzalez. So, Saman got him back.

[NoMoreChallenge]

@CRAZYM3X187 No, Ricardo beat Saman in 1993 then Saman beat Gonzales in 1995. Saman got him back!

[enter5000]

いくらなんでも強すぎだろ・・

[buitrago73]

[garfieldlambda]

No es este mismo saman el que noqueo a la chiquita gonzalez ?

[sean163686]

Yeah, it's the same guy; Saman knocked out Chiquita Gonzalez to win the WBC/IBF 108 lb belts in 1995.

[000gallo]

el finito es de lo mejor y lo mas chingon que h dado mx.
