Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez Wins Lackluster Decision Over Jamaine Ortiz in Close Fight

[Bronx2245]

I get its SB weekend but a Thursday is such a weird date for this …..Hopefully the Main event does not start at damn near midnight, gotta work Fri…

I missed Shakur, and I missed this one! Did you stay awake? Was it worth it?

Two guys got paid, and we watched and it was boring.

on the bright side my weed guy gave me a gram of some insane bud. Unfortunately I work at a big American conglomerate and drug testing is required and random.

You have a weed guy but it sounds like you're scared to smoke. So what is it?

Teofimo should never call out anyone because in all honesty he lost and the assessment Tim Bradley gave before the fight was so wrong, and he argued with Mark Kriegal as if his know it all ass is perfect and he was completely wrong and he never apologized or say he was wrong, I wish they would fire his arrogant ass!

Teofimo's dumb azz was crossing his legs a lot while stalking and was not in the position to even throw punches, letting ortiz circle to his right, and in some rounds, teofimo him self walked backwards and created unnecessary space between them himself. I was like wtf is this overrated clown doing?!?! Teofimo doesn't know how to close gaps and got hit a lot on the inside. This clown is not beating haney, shakur or tank. Even washed up loma did better against ortiz.

Haha Ah Teo ringwalk was all time and post fight interview was the usual chaotic hilarity, fight was another snoozer.Teo, the man got all the gifts but he's gonna need a new coach if he wants to be the superstar he can be, still hasn't learn to cut off the damn ring after the Sandor fight ! Or watch some Duran, Berterbiev and GGG and learn from that. Doubt he will sack the old man. Disappointing. Ortiz came to survive, like Santos and to a smaller extent Martin, dudes don't further their stock in a close fight. No one will want to see em again. Ahh boxing. Hopefully Teo takes the Matias fight cause he knows Matias will stand in front of him and let him show his skills.
Sucks when boxing has one of its stars in lacklustre fight cause we don't see em again for another 6 months.

Steve Weisfeld got it right. Of course boxers at the top level can do a lot to box, move and get away, but how is that different from running? A fighter should never win a world title like that, and hopefully never will. Plus Ortiz landed about 2 solid punches in all of the fight. It takes a real cynic to turn around and call that crap “masterful boxing”.

You might be right because all of the fighters you mentioned are also chicken s#it hacks who are also going to run away from Teo all night trying to game the system. If Ortiz stood and fought the way he fought Lomachenko it would have been a short night for him.

Ortiz has landed and thrown more than Teo. Not sure what you’re talking about

You must be looking at the ESPN punch count and not the actual fight.

Ortiz is barely landing and moving way too much.

But you have your opinion and I have mine.
I'm not going to argue over such a boring fight.

[ELPacman]

W.t.f? I turned it off last night after rd12 fully expecting an upset win for Ortiz. I said, f waiting on the decision, I'll read about it tomorrow morning, need to sleep for work. I wake up today to see this nonsense. Man, no wonder boxing has lost so many fans to MMA. After watching what was a dull as f**k fight, you still had an immediate sense of who won it.

117-111? Don't try too hard to pretend you weren't paid off.

Vegas, where the "MONEY" making fighters are gifted decisions or nearly impossible to beat without KOing them.

[TheOneAboveAll]

I'm prepared to say that #1 at 140 is very likely Haney, or maybe Matias. Blueprint on how to ruin Teo's night is there, just needs to be someone with power. 117-111, what a joke.

They should hire Ortiz and Shakur to put on weekly "exhibitions" at the local nursing homes and help the old people get to sleep though.

That fight was boring because of one person and it wasn’t Lopez.
