Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez Positive For COVID-19; Entire Lopez-Kambosos Card Postponed Until August 14

We don't know if Lopez got the vaccine but seems most likely that he did not. For one, it's hard to get COVID when you got the vaccine and if you do get COVID, you're almost never symptomatic. Plus he has asthma! Pretty hard to become a star when fighting once a year.

Honestly glad to hear this, makes it easier to watch all the fights this weekend, was ridiculous how many competing cards there were going to be on Saturday

I don’t think he’s ready while Kambosos is in the shape of his life so this is just a cover story to get Lopez primed for a real challenge against a top 135lber not a blown up featherweight.

Another pathetic excuse for a boxing fan. No proof to back up a outrageous claim, and it’s all because you’d rather see boxing fail… coward

This is absolutely incredible! Damn, what a huge blow to Teofimo and his family? Here's wishing you a very speedy and full recovery my friend! Get back into the ring soon. We need you.

This. But no fret, the Munguia Rosado Bek card is the best card this weekend. Inoue being fed a sheep as well as Charlo

"coronavirus tests" dont actually test for the virus, much less the specific "covid-19" virus which shouldnt exist anymore because of the much touted gain of function which should have mutated the original strand over a year ago. The tests only tests for generic residues of any coronavirus, including those that cause the common cold. But the sheep are gonna go along with the Okee Doke.

Wierd timing
Just signed a new deal with Top Rank last week and now he got the Covid.

He has asthma so let's hope he recovers fully.

That's what makes it scary. Hope he fully recovers and that his family is safe from getting it.

That was the upside I thought after recently reviewing all the fight cards crammed into one Saturday. What I hate is when we get a crammed weekend that happens sometimes and then a following week with nothing decent scheduled. But in this case we have a solid weekend on the 26th as well. But the 26th is also a bit crammed as well:

SATURDAY, JUNE 26

Vasiliy Lomachenko (No. 1, No. 9 P4P) vs. Masayoshi Nakatani (No. 9)
10 rounds – bantamweights

10 rounds – middleweights

Guadalajara, Mexico (DAZN)

12 rounds – flyweights (for Marinez’s WBC title)

Daniel Matellon vs. Jose Argumedo (No. 7 strawweight)

This what happens when you too "healthy" or "cool" for the vaccine
