Josh Warrington vs. Luis Alberto Lopez
Warrington said this to boxingscene.com about his upcoming fight against Lopez, “It’s good to have a fight coming up. Without a fight coming up, we’re a bit all over the place, so it’s good to have a focus. It’s always a bit in the dark when you’re fighting someone people don’t know much about. He’s a hungry young fighter, confident and full of himself thinking he’s going to come along, spoil the party and take the belt and I’ve got to make sure I’m switched on for the job. I’m confident in myself. I don’t think he’s mixed in the same calibre I’ve done, but then again, I’ve said that before when I fought Lara.”
