There are rumors going around that Junior Lopez (Teofimo Sr.) will be handing the rains over to Eddie Reynoso, making him the head trainer. The father will still be in the corner, just taking on a secondary role because of all the trainers out there, he respects Reynoso and trusts him with his son. It is not yet confirmed, but this is what's being said by several people. I'll attach a video of one of these individuals.
It seems as if the father succumbed to the pressure of public opinion. Regardless, I believe it is the right decision.
UPDATE: I just heard from someone close to the Lopez's, and he said this rumor is true, that Teofimo is going to go to San Diego and see whether there's chemistry. Then, if it feels right and Reynoso as well as Teofimo feel it's going to work, then Reynoso will be his new trainer.
