Atlantic City, Nova Jersey (Novembre 15, 2017)–Super Bantamweight contender Adam López is looking to getting back to the perch of being on a short list to fight for a world title.

he came up on the short end of that fight, però
Dissabte nit he returns to Atlantic City when he takes on Jorge Diaz in an eight-round bout for the WBC Fecarbox Super Bantamweight title at The Claridge Hotel.

“Camp was good. I am just taking off the last few pounds. I take my weight off slowly, and be comfortable, and then I rehydrate the right way,” va dir López.
Lopez knows a win over the tough Diaz would get him right back in contention in the 122 divisió de lliures.
“I think a win gets me back to the place where I was at before the Roman fight. I will be knocking on the door of a title fight.”
“Diaz is a rough fighter, and I expect a tough fight from him. He has some good wins, and even though he has lost a few fights, four of them have been to undefeated fighters and the other was to a fighter with one loss, so I expect and I am preparing for the best Jorge Diaz.”
“
I just want everyone to come out on November 18th,
and I will put on a good show.”
