    There's potential in this wacko. Hopefully we see it again.

    Would like to see a rematch between Teofimo Lopez against kambosos even if it is in 140, either Teo loses and shouldn't make the same excuse repeatedly about his loss or the esophagus condition was legitimate reason for his performance.

      Health condition aside. He fought like a complete jackass. Thinking he could blast kambosos out instead of slowly breaking him down.

          Agreed, he wanted to KO Kambosos quickly which backfired on him.

          At least he found a renown trainer called Jorge Rubio besides his father but I do not know him well.

            I wouldn't go that far but if he's not totally bonkers I could see him become a champion at 140. Top Rank could lead him to a title there. They're great match makers.

              Seriously doubt he'd ever be a threat to guys who dwarf him at 147 like Spence,Crawford,Vergil or Boots lol. Come on now. Even at 140, I'd still favor Taylor,Regis,Chon and Ramirez.

              Although it was the right decision,too bad they declined Barboza as we could've gotten gauge of where he's at mentally and physically.

                Like I said, if he had his head on straight. He’s a pretty average sized welter. Spence and Crawford have peaked so……..
                This younger fighters you mentioned aren’t as naturally talented as Teo is but like I said. He’s nuts so we may never know.

                  Not sure about that, Kambosos was around his size and he seems like a contender who belongs at that division.

                    What does he mean ''he'' shouldn't have let him fight ?!?!?
                    Since when do trainers/fathers call the shots and fire the boxer for not listening ?

                    Like Teo said...fighters are gonna do what they're gonna do.
                    The act of throwing in towels could get a guy fired or disowned.

                    Evidently, Teo passed his medicals.
