Ali Walsh was riding a five-fight win streak heading into the fight with Lopez, who was undefeated at 3-0. Ali Walsh has been groomed as an amateur, winning four of his previous four PFL appearances, all by finish.
He's mentioned that, if he won this fight, it would probably be the time to turn professional.

βGod willing, I put this guy to sleep in November, and Iβm going to sit down with my coach and see what he thinks is next,β Ali Walsh told reporters at a media scrum at Xtreme Couture in early November. βI like to listen to him, Iβm still a baby. He has so much more knowledge than I do. This is not a sport to rush in, but personally, if you were to just ask me individually, I think after this next fight I get the win, God willing, I think Iβll be ready to go pro.β
He said on the mic that he wasn't sure what his next move would be.
Here's how Twitter reacted to the fight.
Biaggio. Ali. Walsh.
