Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez Not Distracted By Rumours Of A Saudi Takeover

[SteveM]

There are critics of Turki and Saudi, but one has to admit, some of these big fights would probably never happen without Turki.

The way Turki is gobbling up all the HWs, tantalising them with riches and making them all fight each other - this has the makings of a likely Golden era in HW boxing where the best fight the best.
If it continues for a few years like this we'll likely see HW sized athletes who might go into rugby or NFL consider boxing as being more lucrative.

I can’t understand anything this guy says. I’m not trying to put him down for not being articulate or whatever, I just don’t ever know what he’s talking about.

Whi gives a f.uck about what this mental midget think about anything? Guys is as smart a 12 pack of spoons.

Then Wahid and cRyan have 2.5 spoons between them if that the way you think.

Excellency, I title that was given to him. People bend over for money, IMO this will be beneficial now but later on it will hurt the sport.

As long as boxers are getting paid what they deserve, it’s going to be great.

hope so. although there ain't many ppl that even get into the NFL. so there are tons of ppl who are just scared of boxing or more than that, vast majority of ppl see boxing as a very very corrupt sport and just stay away from it. but I never bought into "all big guys go NFL" because there's such few that make It to NFL or college football" high level" the money is giant in boxing if you big guy and reach top tier. I think the sport being seen as dirty has more do with it than anything. did I just repeat myself? sorry.

The Saudis are going to nut check these current day boxers. They got ridiculous $ to have them put up or shut up.

Any of those guys can beat Teofimo honestly

People hate on Teo, but truth be told on any given night, he beats Tank, Garcia, Haney, Shakur, etc...
