Josesito Lopez to be Terence Crawford's next opponent?

Josesito Lopez (38-8, 21 KOs) is among potential rivals for WBO welterweight champion Terence Crawford (37-0, 28 KOs), who is expected to return to the ring in June. The fight will take place in the USA.

Lopez, 36, was one of the candidates to face Crawford in the fall, but then the World Boxing Organization champion turned to Kell Brook. The Briton lost in the fourth round.

In the last two professional fights, Lopez defeated John Molina and Francisco Santana. The last fight of the Californian boxer took place in December.
