Guy has been getting trashed on here by most...then soon as he becomes an opponent for Loma SOME started to try to make him out to be some great boxer...The truth is he is somewhere in the middle and we just have to wait to see how he develops
Man, you need to stop all those other guys from making themselves look like ****ing fools.
He's only been trashed because of all his trash talk and his refusal to take this fight.
Personally i think hes a nobody but we won't know until he gets in the ring, but nah, people want to talk him up and tell people he's worth all this money he isnt.

Yeah. But you have their manager saying they haven't ever been offered anything, even before CORONA-19. Then you have the Lopez's saying they're being low-balled and were previously offered 3.2 million or three million.
I mean, which is it? You never got an offer or you were offered three mil? Why can't we get the story straight out of the Lopez camp?
If anyone is bull ****ting the public, it's got to be them because I only find inconsistencies in what they are saying.
Yeah it’s definitely his team, I’m just saying it’s usually not the fighter, usually it’s the people behind him.
What’s wrong with being a fan of a boxer before he gets some big wins?
It’s cool to jump on a bandwagon before it takes off.
With that said, I think Loma schools Lopez.
I can see both sides tbh man... imagine you got offered “x” amount to do a job then a few months later got offered less than half to do the exact same job.
Fighters fight at the end of the day. It will be the people behind them causing issues in terms of the finances.
I just really hope the fight happens, I think it’s an excellent fight between the two top guys at 135.

Don't know what planet these anti-Loma crowd lives where $1.2 million in these pandemic times is not enough for a guy who's best known for twerking while his opponent (what's his name?) was down.
same here. All these fake fans acting like Lomachenko is price Lopez out or low balling him or some ****.
That's a very good offer in these times. If there was no COVID-19 very obviously he would make more. But by doing nothing he's just wasting time.
He was just complaining that he might not be able to make 135 anymore.
Now its not enough money.
After all that talk. Come on!

Easy to become overrated because you looked good in your recent fights. But you still have to beat an established champion to become one. Turning down such opportunity will get you nowhere.
Yeah not a fan of his "Philly Shell Shoulder Roll" at all and I think Loma will pick that apart and come over the top and find holes in that Defense all night which is why I favor him
Yeah he should go ahead and take it, great leaning experience even if it is in a losing effort. He is 23 years old, nobody is going to hold it against him that he lost to the P4P #1 Fighter this early in his career.
Teofimo can easily bounce back and become champion again at 140 even if he loses to Loma
A lot of the guys at 140 will be moving to 147 soon. So the window is there.
If he loses it aint worth sticking around at 135 but still would have the publicity from fighting against loma.
Loma just has more game than Lopez, at least what we've seen. Since salido lomachenko has learned learned how to fight on the inside and has adapted a more brawler esque fighting style compared to before.
Lol. Im glad you can see what I'm talking about. Floyd popularized that defensive strategy but its a HIGH level technique that requires timing, anticipation, and precise distance management. A lot of the time to me it looks like lopez is just trying to look good. Problem is he's flat on his feet.
I've never Lopez infight either and don't know if can win chasing an opponent that's going to be hard to catch. I think he'll get frustrated, like against nakatani. When his best shots weren't landing he gets sloppy. Weve never really seen him and what kind of gas tank he has.
This is a big chance for him to show what he's got.
Hes talked and talked and talked. We havent seen enough.
His best win is Commey, whose best win is Ray Beltran. Lol. Yeah, Richard looked good in that fight, but he got hit a lot, too. But still, it's probably enough for some fans to overrate such fighter and a mega win for Lopez. And now he wants huge money for the Loma fight.
Look people. Someone who has an answer. Not speaking to you but all these "fans" here.
I perosnally don't care if you root for him that's everyone's right. But come on. As one of his fans even younhave to admit that he's being ridiculous and all these people who aren't even Teofimo fans.
Yes hes young and hes explosive but those adjectives literally can be used to describe a lot of young fighters.
Ryan Garcia
Tank Davis
Shakur
Devin Haney
Etc etc etc
You and I agree that he has a punches chance but literally thats it. He has a left leaping hook that he favors and he has some counter punching ability. But he also has a super spotty defense and is super reactive to shots. This means hes susceptible to feints.
Teofimo isn't even more popular than Loma nor is he a bigger draw.
Talk some sense to me. What do you think?
Should teo take it or not?
Yeah not a fan of his "Philly Shell Shoulder Roll" at all and I think Loma will pick that apart and come over the top and find holes in that Defense all night which is why I favor him

He was offered 3 mil and don’t wanna settle for 1. Makes sense, giving kid a hard time when in reality it’s Bob that’s fuccing up.
Bob don’t care about his fighters, he don’t wanna take a cut even though he don’t go in the ring.
Big Loma fan but Lopez is legit. The Commey win proves that. Lopez is a very good fighter, good enough to beat Loma? Probably not, but I’d like to see him try.

The only thing not to like is his fragile mentality. He has cried about several things "bothering" him already, even talked about retiring if he can't have things his own way. In the ring he has a lot of potential, although I personally believe he needs a lot more seasoning before getting in there and standing a chance with the Lomachenko's of the world. Teofimo could make a long career from stacking titles and money, but the way he is mentally weak, I'd worry he may go the way of a Jeff Lacy if he gets outclassed and humbled at this stage.
If you're a Boxing Fan (not just a Loma Fan) What is not to like, he is a young exciting and explosive fighter who looks to put on a show every time he fighters
Many jumped off the bandwagon after the Nakatani and thought Richard Commey would expose him and he came out and destroyed Commey who is/was considered a very tough and durable fighter.
What he does well in the ring...I would say he has excellent timing for a very young fighter. Also very quick and of course that Power!

When I became a fan was from the Olympic Trials, him beating Maliek Montgomery twice and should've been on the 2016 Olympic Team but I don't know I don't remember exactly what happened something about 60 kg weight class and Carlos Balderas already qualifying or some garbage a lot of BS Politics in Amateur Boxing and Olympic Trials
With that being said, I do favor Loma to beat him because of experience...however yes a 23 year old Teofimo is more than Capable of pulling off the upset especially with that size and power. If he Catches Loma like Linares did, Loma probably doesn't get up

So Loma shouldn't take him as lightly (If the fight gets made) as some of his fans are taking him and kind just laughing at and brush Teofimo off, that would be a huge mistake. Loma is much smarter than that though, I think he will come out to Humble Teofimo a bit and give him a boxing lesson so I got Loma by UD in this one BUT Teofimo does have a Punchers Chance! Or if he comes with the right game plan and attack the body early and often like Salido did then yeah he could slow down Loma

I can't stand the arrogant disrespectful bragger but he looked very good crushing a champion in two rounds. I don't like him pricing himself out of the fight he screamed for and I think Loma beats him if he ever gets the courage to fight Loma.
