Ricardo-Lopez
Ricardo “El Finito” Lopez Nava (born July 25, 1967) is a boxer from Mexico, who as an amateur won the silver medal at the 1991 Pan American Games in Havana, Cuba. As a professional, he defended the WBC Strawweight Championship a record 22 times. He also won the WBA and WBO championship of the same weight class. Lopez also won the IBF Light Flyweight Championship and defended it twice before retiring.
Notable fighters he defeated include Hideyuki Ohashi, Saman Sorjaturong, Kyun Yun Li, Kermin Guardia, Andy Tabanas, Ala Villamor, Alex Sanchez, Rosendo Alvarez, Will Grigsby, Zolani Potelo, Rotanapol Sor Vorapin, and Manny Melchor.
Ricardo Lopez was the third champion in history to retire undefeated. He also holds the record for most consecutive title bouts without a loss at twenty-six title. This streak began with his knockout of Hideyuki Ohashi to win the WBC minimumweight title in 1990 and ending with his knockout of Zolani Potelo to defend his IBF light flyweight title in 2001. Ricardo only had one draw, which came against Rosendo Alvarez in 1998 in Lopez's 48th bout.
He officially announced his retirement from boxing at a press conference on 28 November 2002, in Mexico City.
