Something Weird is Going on With Teofimo Lopez.................

As everyone knows by now, Lopez tested positive for COVID a few weeks ago and his fight with Kambosas got pushed back. But the weird part isn't him testing positive but what has preceded the positive test. You have Mannix and Coppinger saying this: https://twitter.com/BatmanBoxing/status/1410116164152442883?s=20 But then you have Bernardo Osuna saying this on the telecast of the Lomachenko fight: https://twitter.com/BadBeatsBoxing/status/1410007197254258688?s=20 So is he vacationing in Italy or is he really sick and having some severe symptoms? Remember, this is a guy that has had asthma almost his entire life. Why would ESPN report he is doing well and vacationing in Italy while his manager and boxing reporters are reporting he is still testing positive and is sick? Something isn't adding up here.

Yes, this is the real reason. Triller is going to lose serious $$$ on this and they're looking to minimize damage. Tyson and Paul cutting ties with them turned their plans upside down. And there's no way someone like Lopez is going to come out and say "We have to keep moving the fight around because I'm not a PPV draw yet." Triller is probably looking around to see if they can get a decent site fee by putting it on somewhere else. Yep, I agree. Teo wants that Triller $ bad. I think at the same time Triller realizes how bad they effed up with their mistake of such a bid. Their was a huge amount of money left on the table, it is ridiculous!

https://twitter.com/pugboxing/status/1411033418524086272?s=20 Good news, but going forward Bernardo Osuna needs to check his sources before reporting stuff on ESPN. What a clusterphuck!

Buy a couple tickets to the fight and he’ll recover quicker than sh.it.

why would he be allowed on a plane full of people with the virus? Teo "The Takeover" taking off on a private jet? ... :lol1:

His father said he had fully recovered a few days ago. And of course Teo Sr is a trusted SOB... right ? :cool:

And im almost certain he can’t vacation in Italy after just contracting the virus. And he definitely can't vacation in Italy if he is still testing positive. LIS, something isn't right here. Different stories are getting out and they don't add up.

Doesn't Teo have asthma? Even with as good of shape as he's in and youth on his side, I imagine the underlying condition may cause some issues. I hope he's well and recovers fully.

You are confused. Millions have tested positive without any symptoms. So even if Lopez is good, he could still have a positive result. PCR tests are all jokes I am not confused....Of course you can have positive tests while having no symptoms. But Mannix is reporting otherwise and Coppinger is saying Lopez was still testing positive by Saturday while Osuna is saying he is vacationing with his wife in Italy. Sorry, but you can't vacation in Italy if you are still testing positive.

it's a****kkkkking lie while their camp figures out how to avoid lomachenko after their fluke ass win a fluke win in which lomachenko didn't throw any meaningful punches until round 7 and was hurt in the 12th? that's the "fluke" you're talking about?

The Delta variant is so potent that it's causing Teofimo to be well while vacationing in Italy AND causing him to be severely ill at the same time. why would he be allowed on a plane full of people with the virus?

Maybe the rumor about them delaying the fight because of poor ticket sales is true

His father said he had fully recovered a few days ago. And his manager says otherwise. I don't see why his manager would lie and say Teofimo was still testing positive on Saturday? Like what does he get in lying like that? I'm guessing his dad was just running his mouth trying to make it seem like everything was good.

Everyone knows with all the PPV's around the original date and Teo's lack of draw, they had to push it back. Yes, this is the real reason. Triller is going to lose serious $$$ on this and they're looking to minimize damage. Tyson and Paul cutting ties with them turned their plans upside down. And there's no way someone like Lopez is going to come out and say "We have to keep moving the fight around because I'm not a PPV draw yet."

Everyone knows with all the PPV's around the original date and Teo's lack of draw, they had to push it back. I agree. The strange thing also is they keep moving this because of that until they finally put him under Oscar for Sept. Oscar is a sick man and can't be depended on at this point. I see another postponement or outright cancelation coming. I expect that IBF garbage belt to be vacated.

it's a****kkkkking lie while their camp figures out how to avoid lomachenko after their fluke ass win This. Teo's current main goal in life is to gain time and duck Lomachenko until the ucranian gets old, or he can escape to a higher division he knows an active, hungry Loma will school him you don't give rematches to guys you know are better than you, and you beat only due to fluke circumstances or luck this is why Salido never rematched Loma either

If he’s really an asthmatic he’s fooked cause even if it’s a mild case it will fook up his endurance abilities. For most young people it’s nothing or just a mild cold. For asthmatics it attacks the lungs. Even if it’s mild it can mess with even his everyday endurance for 3 months after getting well. He could be out 6- 12 months. And that's why it makes NO sense at all that they already have dates targeted for the Kambosas fight. Like there is no reason to do that. Let Teofimo actually get in the gym and see where he is at and if he can even workout without having breathing issues.
