      I must be misunderstanding because everything about that seems wrong. I think the only thing I've ever heard come out of Teo's Dad's mouth that is correct and logical, is that they need to move immediately to 140 and pass on the rematch.
      Not going back down, tell Kambosis to move up for a shot at the 140 lb belts.

        This right here.

          That could work but a lot of unlikely (imo) things would need to happen first. I don't see Lopez having an easy time with Taylor, or Prograis for that matter. As for Kambosos, he's going to have his own difficulties at 135, let alone moving up to 140.

          Wow, if it happened though, that would be quite a story.

            Therapy.........

            When he's ready, fight Mikey Garcia at 140.

              Take a year off. Get your head right. Take a couple comeback fights at 140 and then target a vacant belt.

                start internally. get honest with yourself. get back to the roots that made you great in the first place. hard work. talent. belief. humbleness. family, hunger....keep it real. lose the things and the people that come with celebrity. the parties the sycophants, build up a team of professionals to get you back on track and your head screwed back on. your mouth and your thinking are running around unchecked. you need a great advisors from people who are already successful and dont really give a fcuk that your some kinda of wonderkid. you just got checked big time. but you learn the most from your losses. if you dont learn from this and make the adjustments .... youll never get it back

                  Everyone stop suggesting he fire his dad, I’m almost 100% certain that isn’t going to happen. For better or worse. I mean his dad as idiotic as he is, did lead his son to all the titles against the best fighter in the world at only 23 years of age and 14 fights! Teo is not going to can his father. What I do see is Teo adding another coach, Joey Gamache again or someone else. That’s a good move and as narcissistic as Sr seems, I know he’s feeling the heat and will be make the right move to bring in help and be more subdued next at bat.

                  Take a few easy fights at 140, Teo is only 24 there is still plenty of time to make another run. He can fine tune some stuff and by then Josh Taylor will most likely go to 147. So the belts will probably be spread around and he can aim for one of the titles. No way will Teo go straight for Taylor nor should he really be expected to right now. Time is one Teos side, just depends all on his attitude and realizing the talent and potential he has if he sits back and corrects things.

                    Exactly this. People are so impulsive lol they want him to fire his father and go straight to Josh Taylor to lose again. Lol!

                    Hes only 24, time is on his side.

                      New trainers and coaches, get in better shape and rematch Kambo or fight Haney at 135 or move up and rebuild at 140.
