Romero makes his first defence of the WBA title he won by upsetting Ryan Garcia in May 2025, dropping Garcia in the second round before claiming a unanimous decision. He has since been upgraded from Regular to full WBA champion but enters the fight after more than a year of inactivity.
Lopez is making his welterweight debut while chasing a third world title in a third weight class, having previously dethroned Vasyl Lomachenko at lightweight and Josh Taylor at super lightweight. He is coming off a wide unanimous decision loss to Shakur Stevenson in January — a result most attribute to Stevenson's brilliance rather than any significant decline in Lopez.
Romero brings unpredictable movement and physical strength, but Lopez's athleticism and world-level experience make him a clear favourite. BoMac, for one, sees no contest.
