Oliver’s opponent Reynaldo Lopez, 28-5-2, 19 KO’s, is a trail horse Colombian that has had only two fights in the last 18 months, both losses to championship caliber fighters Daniel Ponce De Leon and Cristian Mijares. Against Ponce De Leon, Lopez was blown out in 5 rounds by KO after stepping up 7 lbs.ESPN2 boxing match-up. to the 122 Lb. Division for the first time in his career. The slick southpaw Mike Oliver, 21-0, 7 KO’s,  isn’t a big banger but he is a great combination puncher that is well-trained by former fighter John Scully and should be able to dominate this fight if he stays to boxing not brawling.

Lopez, 34, is a gutsy pro that knows how to fight but probably and has enough speed an power to stay competitive. Mike Oliver is the house fighter and this is a fight that he is being showcased in. Oliver’s promoter Rich Cappiello said this about the fight: “We had the TV date had it’s my job to keep Mike active,” Cappiello said. “These are the sort of fights Mike has to win.” The OVER\UNDER on this fight is at 9.5 rounds with the UNDER at +350 boxing betting odds. While Oliver is more boxer than puncher he has true talent and should have about a 50\50 chance of stopping Lopez or getting stopped himself wit the big hitter Lopez. The UNDER has enough value to take a flier bet on.
