Comments Thread For: Jose Ramirez: God Willing, Top Rank Is Able To Give Me The Teofimo Lopez Fight Next

[PBR Streetgang]

As soon as Teo won, I had a feeling this would be next. Top Rank can keep it in-house, Ramirez can generate good gates in Fresno (if they choose to go there) and I imagine it generates good TV ratings as well. It's a winnable fight for both depending on which version of Lopez shows up.

Cracking fight. Especially if it winds up in Fresno.

Why would Teo, the "Champ" go to Fresno? Las Vegas, or L.A., maybe? Teo's fan base is clearly NYC!

The big fight for Teo is against Ryan.

Teo should go pickup a check vs Ramirez in the meantime.. fight would sell out in Cali

let Ryan take Rollies belt..

then a massive unification PPV seller with Ryan.

I agree with Ryan, but not with Ramirez! Let Ryan fight Ramirez, if anybody! Barboza then Ryan!

Good question. For some reason it is hard to imagine Teo defending at Save Mart.

Las Vegas does seem more likely.
Ramirez has fought at MSG before, so maybe it's not out of the question.

But I guess one question is: who has the bigger fan base?

Too risky for Teo! If Ramirez can fight Amir Imam in MSG, on a MIchael Conlan card on St. Patrick's Day, he can definitely fight Teofimo at MSG!

Ramirez is the only big dog in the division that Teo handles with ease. Teo would clown around with him before he flattens him. Kind of like Magdaleno. I want to see it. Make it happen.

Didn't he just handle the main dog in the division with ease? Taylor was still the guy at 140 coming into Saturday night

Ryan likely KO’s Teo.. hate to burst your bubble

On what planet? Didn't you say that Turdo Ramirez and Clenelo would wipe the floor with Bivol? GTFO fanboi.

Honestly, Oscar. I was a huge fan but you went full coke-whore and I can't take it anymore. Stop coming to this forum and pushing your false narrative.

I was saying a while back, Top Rank had been in his ear telling him to pass on the Prograis fight by promising him this.

Now they've got the belts on Teo, and they've got in-house opponents for him - Teo, maybe a Loma and/or Kambosis rematches at 140 if either guy gets desperate, Barboza, etc.

I mean. Ramirez literally mentioned that he was lined up for one of these guys during the Prograis negotiations. Prograis couldn’t get close to the pay Ramirez was guaranteed vs Commey, and he couldn’t meet the paycut Ramirez was willing to accept. Common sense decision.

Teo wouldn’t go.. but he would get paid more if he decided to go to Cali and fight in LA.. Fresno is a no go

No, I thought it was a close fight.
