El Tigre Beats Rivera!!! Now 10-0!
photos and report: Houston Boxing Scene
Light Heavyweight Alfonso Lopez of Corpus Christi pounded Gabriel "El Torito" Rivera of Harlingen!
Rivera was game initially and landed a couple of solid shots. But the outcome became clear in the opening seconds when Lopez demonstrated he was physically stronger than Rivera by pushing him backward.
Rivera entered the fight with a record of 7-3 with 4 KO's. He lost by TKO to Anthony Dirrell in the second round in August of 2005. "El Torito" would continue to try to come forward but took several big shots from Lopez early.
Lopez cornered Rivera in the second round and landed several combinations, but Rivera came firing back.
By the end of the second round Lopez was hammering Rivera at will, while at the same time playing matador, making "El Torito" miss in his shots.
In round three Rivera was still trying to bull his way in but was becoming increasingly frustrated at the fact that he could mount little effective offense, and was taking big shots from Lopez from all angles.
Rivera's corner stopped the fight at 1:54 of the third round.
Lopez remains undefeated at 10-0 with 7 KO's!!

EL TIGRE RISES TO 7-0 (6 KOS)!
On April 17th 2008, Lopez pleases the crowd with another exciting TKO victory! Journeyman Anthony Greeley with his 32 Pro-fights came into the ring looking to hand over Lopez his first defeat. "He was slick and a good counter puncher," el tigre said of Greeley. Greeley went down in the 2nd rd. and twice in the 3rd and like all Alfonso's other opponents found that a win against el tigre was impossible and retired on his stool before the 4th rd began. 
Stay tuned for Alfonso's scheduled fights.
