Teofimo Lopez Says "There's NO rematch because had I lost, he would have never given me a rematch."

[BoxingIsGreat]

You should watch it.

Lomachenko outboxed him for a contested 6 rounds. Once Lomachenko decided to actually fight.

No crying over spilt milk. It's Loma's fault for not doing s.hit for 6 rounds straight and/or going into the ring with a preexisting injury. So, he has to take the L on his chin for being foolish.

But Lopez would likely get beat in a rematch. Just from the eye test in the first go. You can't get completely boxed up for the entire 2nd half of the fight and not be suspect.

That's why Lopez won't do a rematch. Not as it stands. Because he doesn't want to risk taking the L that is very feasible.

But they may come together sooner or later anyways. Nobody is trying to fight each other in the division, so eventually the orgs might force their collision.

The orgs have no power over some fighters. Not many fighters respect them. Look at the crappy situation with Haney and his mandatories. The WBA cannot order Davis to fight anyone or their bogus belts get dropped. The orgs flex on less to do boxers.

Okay you lazy bum ;-) I did look and I’ve actually found the opposite of what you are saying. I find articles supporting what I’m saying.

Arum said there wasn't one. He didn't say why.

Teo Sr. taunted Loma to remove it before the fight.

I'll say it right now: Teofimo Lopez is being a little bi†ch by telling lies and making excuses on not giving a rematch to Lomachenko.

Here's what he said:


This kid is a PUNK. There was no rematch clause in the contract sent to both guys, and no one requested one out of pride. Arum, out of his own mouth, said he doesn't do rematch clauses, leaving it up to the boxers later on. So he sent out contracts that didn't have a rematch clause.

Having Lopez presume that Loma wouldn't give him a rematch is ludicrous. Does Lopez have a crystal ball that lets him see into the hearts and minds of others, to see into the future on what someone will or will not do? It's absolutely absurd.

He's ducking Loma now after Loma showed Lopez that he was outclassed. We all saw the last half of the fight. We all saw that Lopez couldn't hit the side of a barn with Loma in the ring. And we all saw Lopez's head constantly bouncing off of his back!

He want's to fight Taylor. But Taylor doesn't want to fight Lopez. Taylor said he's NOT going to fight Lopez, and Lopez doesn't have any leverage to make the fight. He had leverage to make the fight with Loma. But now with Josh, what does he have? A super belt? Great. Josh doesn't want to beat a 135 pounder. He wants to fight Crawford. He wants to move up.

So Teofimo is going to leave the hottest division in boxing to go fight someone that is leaving the 140 pound division. Say what?! He's above fighting Haney. He's above fighting Tank. He's above fighting Garcia. He's above fighting any of the ranked fighters in the most stacked division in boxing.

That win over Loma was a fluke! A one-armed Loma with extremely biased/corrupt judging. The fight was a draw. I want this kid to get a beat down now.

What does everyone think?

Well Teofimo Sr said it wouldn’t be a problem doing a rematch. I specifically recall during one of the recent boxing events Sr said he could talk his son into a rematch. What a helluva Dad, Trainer and Management if you can’t even sway your own diva, I mean son. Second time around and Loma schools Teo Jr.

Still on that victory lap I see, year and a half and counting

Without a single bout since

[NC Uppercut]

I know man! This kid is acting as if he shocked himself, as if he never believed he would win, and now he's terrified to make a move. Calling out Taylor as he is just seem so damn premature. And it's nothing in his near future considering what Taylor's plans are. If he fights Taylor, then I'll eat crow. But that's not likely to happen. It's very unlikely to happen.

Let's see this kid put Kambosos Jr. to sleep because if he can't get Kambosos out of there in the first half of the fight, the last half of the fight is going to extremely dangerous for Lopez. Kambosos does not stop. He's got an engine in him that just keeps going. And because of that he hits just as hard in the 12th round as he does in the first. Lopez loses his pop later in the fight, so then he's going to have to out punch Kambosos who throws combination and combination.

I'm eager for that fight but Lopez needs to get his feelings out of the way. He really has some mental hangup with Loma. And now I'm seeing it as fear. He knows that he can lose in the rematch. That's what many are saying right now, even fans of Teofimo, which I am.

Do me a favor brother, please stop schooling these dunba$$ on here. Loma would wreck Teo this time around. Period

At one point they were not so assertive in not rematching him. Loma might be the highest purse that they can get and money talks. The more they say no the more they are going to get.

[rickJen]

I thought he wants to get paid truckloads of money.
Who else is there for this clown to get the money he wants?

[Cypocryphy]

Arum said there wasn't one. He didn't say why.

Teo Sr. taunted Loma to remove it before the fight.

That's not true. Arum did say why. Not only does every news article on this matter say there was never a rematch clause, Arum himself, after being asked "Why is there no rematch clause, and whose decision was that," had this to say in an interview with Arum and Loma:

"Let me answer that. I don't believe in rematch clauses. Rematch clauses are, in essence, over used thanks to our friend Eddie Hern. He puts a rematch clause in every contract, and that may indicate that he's not confident in how his fighter will perform. As far as I'm concerned, let them fight. There will be a winer and a loser, and if down the road they want a rematch, that's up to them."

So you see, Arum said it was he who determined that there was no rematch clause. It was his decision and no one else. And Loma himself had stated that he did not request a rematch clause because of words he heard from Teofimo's father in an interview, that he wasn't confident that he could win. So Loma said fine, I won't "fight for one."

That's the truth of the matter. So Lopez saying Loma would never have given him one is a load of ****. And that's why Teofimo is ducking. He doesn't have a good reason to not fight Loma, so he has to make **** up. That's a clear sign Teofimo is shook.

LOL I know man.

[PRINCEKOOL]

There will be a rematch, when the WBC or whatever belt Lopez holds 'Makes Lomachenko a mandatory his defense'.

I think since his win vs Lomachenko, Lopez really has not been a good champion. I have no idea what his issue is a rematch?

The rematch will be a bigger fight than the first fight.
