    If you beat a top 5 pfp fighter, you are exempt from being called a hypejob

      I wouldn't say Teo is a hypejob because he had 2 solid wins with Nakatani and Commey, and 1 really good win over Loma. Hype jobs usually just have a couple decent wins before stepping up to their first solid fighter.

        He was recovering from COVID and went into the fight injuried. I think he deserves a little slack.

          Teo has proved he's no hypejob,where as the jury is still out on the rest at 135.

            Hype jobs usually come from the UK and Teo's from Brooklyn.

              He's not a hype job.

              He's a top fighter he just lost a fight. It's boxing, it happens.

              He'll be back and he'll more than likely be champion again.

                Hes not a hype job, he just got beat by a better fighter last night. The layoff definitely helped Kambosos, dude looked like he trained his ass off.

                1 thing that was exposed last night about Lopez is he punches hard as F when you stand in front of him. Give him a lil side to side movement and he takes a long time to wind up.

                Credit to Kambosos and teams gameplan. He kept circling the center ring perfect and got off first. It was really beautiful boxing. I prefer this kinda fight vs 2 guys throwing 1000+ punches and no1 even has a mark.

                  He’s a good fighter with emotional issues and a worthless team in his corner
