I don't think that it was intentional though. I remembered seeing him attempt to engage, but Lopez punished him for it and was more willing to exchange. Which makes sense considering he's the larger fighter with more K.O. power. Loma would enter, Lopez would step left cut him off and send his right into Loma's body. I love Loma but Lopez fought the perfect fight against him.
