Emmanuel Lopez is looking to revamp his career as he makes his Telemundo debut in a battle of Experience vs Youth. Boxeo Telemundo is known for fighters making great comeback stories in their careers, most recently Dennis "Martillo" Contreras has fought his way back into title contention.
"We are happy to be back in the ring after a long layoff" stated Lopez " We took some time off my career due to Covid-19. We are now ready to give a great performance on Friday night" Lopez closed "May the best man win"
