Win Methods
Benito Lopez, better known as "Golden Boy", brings a 10-2 record into every walk to the cage — and in a division as crowded as bantamweight, every single win matters.
Volume is the weapon: 4.39 significant strikes a minute on 47% accuracy. Rounds get won on attrition — opponents drown in output long before the final bell.
He's coming off a loss to Mario Bautista. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.
