Gervonta “Tank” Davis and Saul “Canelo” Alvarez both picked up recent wins while trying to stake their claim as “the face of boxing.” Undisptued titles have also been on the line of late, with Devin Haney edging out Vasiliy Lomachenko in a fantastic bout to retain his undisputed lightweight title, and all-time great and undisputed women’s lightweight champion Katie Taylor coming up short in her bid to become undisputed super lightweight champion against Chantelle Cameron.

Many were questioning if Lopez’s best days were already behind him despite being just 24 years old. Instead of fading away, Lopez put on one of the most complete performances of his career to put the boxing world on notice.
