Video: JuanMa Lopez: I’m at a point in my career that I can’t afford to lose any fight

July 12 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, in the televised portion of the Canelo-Lara PPV, Puerto Rican star and former world champion Juan Manuel “JuanMa” Lopez battles Mexico’s Francisco “El Bandido” Vargas in a 10-round bout for the WBO International Super Featherweight Title.

As part of the pre-fight festivities, Juan Ma held a workout and autograph session with fans today. After the event, JuanMa took time to talk to several members of the media.

“I’m at a point in my career that I can’t afford to lose any fight. I’m not thinking of losing, I need to win all of my fights.”

Puerto Rican power puncher Juan Manuel “JuanMa” Lopez (34-3, 31 KOs) is undergoing a career resurgence at 30-years-old. With wins in three of his last four bouts, all by knockout, he is soaring in the 130-pound rankings. In his most recent match on March 15, Caguas’ Lopez stopped Daniel Ponce De Leon in the second round of their rematch. Considering that his last Las Vegas bout was a stirring eighth-round stoppage of Rafael Marquez in 2010, Lopez is confident of victory on July 12.
