Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez on Pedraza: It's Not Someone That I Would Have Liked To Face

I think that if he wins a title @ 140, he goes to 147! He's a big guy, and he's now 30 years old.

I'd love to see Subriel "Browny" Matias, in against them 147 pounder's. Especially if the added 7 pounds translate into added power.
If it does then heaven help all of those Welterweights, because all hell is coming their way. That's how much of a destructive force
"Matalo A Todos" Matias Is.

I think Taylor is too big and used to the weight, both are very skilled.

Teo is a huge guy tbh so not that difference in terms of size I remember conor benn saying when he went to train with teo that he was shocked how big he was an said he was bigger than him at that point in his camp this was a guy who was melting himself to the brink to make 135.Taylor obviously abit taller but I just see him being way to sharp for Taylor he's alot more athletically gifted than him too an i think it will be competitive fight but I think teo would get to him an put him away

Josh Taylor is a very mentally strong fighter and I feel that Teo lacks in that department. Sure he got a decision win against technically a featherweight, so besides that it is all hype and he got beat by basic Kambosos. The mental aspect will be too much for Teo and I think Josh will get into Teo's head before the fight, take him into deep waters, and possibly end his career.

But action speak louder than words, so in this case Teo rather have an easy night instead of calling out Josh Taylor, which I understand. You have to make money in this sport and come out healthy. And we get to see a good fight anyway.

Taylor has Jack Catterall problems.

Taylor has Jack Catterall problems.

Which is a good fighter as well, tough fighter. Maybe Im wrong but I think it was just really an off night against Cat.

Is Taylor that mentally strong tho? Hes not the most disciplined fighter an blows up in weight an kills himself to make 140 aswell. I mean look at him against Catterall was outclassed for so much of that fight an that was against a sharper looking fighter yeah styles make fights an teo won't fight like Catterall so can't just go off past performances with either guy cus styles make fights an I think teo just way to athletic for Taylor an sharp an he'll break him down

[Timur78]

Not sure how the styles match up, but I like Pedraza.
Good defense and smart boxer.
