Teo’s posturing comes off a bit phony. Hopefully I’m wrong and he doesn’t avoid Haney.messi807

So how might this all play out?
Lopez (19-1, 13 KO) is a promotional free agent at the moment, and he’ll probably go where the most money is. That could be simply staying at Top Rank and with ESPN, who have built him as a centerpiece star for a few years now.
Haney (30-0, 15 KO) would still have the option to jump up in weight and fight Teofimo. Haney is also a free agent at the moment, and one figures a Teofimo fight would be up there with the biggest fight he can get, though he’s said Gervonta Davis at PBC is a target, and Davis is a bigger star than Lopez.
One dark horse here might be Matchroom and DAZN jumping in. They badly need marquee names right now, and Haney has a good history working with Matchroom and the streamer. Teofimo isn’t as fond of them, but money talks, and he also seems to change his mind fairly often. If they come with a big offer, don’t count them out.
If Lopez, who turns 26 at the end of this month, does re-sign with Top Rank and doesn’t fight Haney next, then Barboza and Ramirez are Nos. 1 and 2 in the WBO rankings at 140 and would both be viable opponents and pretty easy fights to get done.
If this all turns out to be another Great Work by Teofimo, then so be it, but for now, it appears he’s not ****in’ leaving.

So how do you see this playing out? Could you see Al Haymon trying to make this happen?

It clearly says Barboza vs Ramirez, so how the hell Lopez came up with Haney vs Barboza? He's calling out Haney because he knows Haney vs Prograis is almost a done deal. This dude's brain is all over the place. The man came out of retirement before he even fully went in.
