Salido really damaged Lopez when Juanma started to press the fight in the 8th. Lopez understood that he wasn't winning the fight on the outside and tried to change his strategy. The PR crowd was cheering, but Salido abused him on the inside (clever offense and defense) and the punch stats reflect that.
During the rest before th 10th, I heard Juanma say "estoy mal", before cutting off to Salido's corner.

Salido was going to get robbed, everybody knew that, even Salido himselft. In the post-fight interview with Azteca Tv, Chavez Sr said to Salido that he was happy that he got the KO since he was going to get robbed, and Salido admitted that he knew that he had to go for the KO in order to win in PR.

lol they were going to rob salido....but i'm surprised that salido didn't ko juanma earlier considering the amount of hard shots juanma was taking prior to the start of the 10th round. it was a damn good fight better than the first one.
