    Doesn’t generate enough money? Cause Madrimov and whatever bum ennis just beat are generating huge cash? I’m confused by that statement lol

      Teo is always complaining, complaining, complaining. He needs to realise he is not such a big star and nobody is listening to his tantrums. In fact people are making fun of him, in spite of him actually being talented and capable. Rejecting a title fight that is on offer vs Norman is beyond dumb. Rubbishing his promoter is idiotic. Does he really think they are going to respond to his public criticism and work hard to give him the fights he is dreaming about when he is behaving like a two year old?

      If he thinks he is that popular and deserves these mega fights he needs to read this forum for a dose of bitter reality.

        Teo has an inflated opinion about his own value. He is only thinking about how to get the biggest possible payday which is why he is mentioning Boots and Crawford. He thinks uncle Turki is going to pay him Zillions for that. He does not realise that for a such a fight to be made, he also needs to be able to offer something of value to these guys. The problem is that he has nothing to offer at 147 or 154. These guys want belts and money. Teo does not bring that to the table so he will forever be complaining instead of fighting the likes or Norman and Paro and becoming more valuable.

          We need to remember that we're talking about Teofimo Lopez, a 27yo with only 22 fights. He's not a fighter on the verge of retirement who needs to desperately cash out. For all of his accomplishments, he's a wishy-washy performer who hasn't proven to be a huge draw. Paro just upset the 140lb boogeyman on foreign soil, so he's earned the right to be perceived as somebody! A unification with Paro is an upgrade from fighting Ortiz and Claggett. Teofimo is not head and shoulders above the 140lb division. Teofimo still has something to prove, even if he thinks he doesn't.

          If he wants to sit out and wait until the perfect opportunity comes along, fine. But he may regret it.

            Just so you know, it's not JUST the cash! Madramov had the 154lb belt that would establish Crawford in another division. Jaron Ennis was scheduled to fight Crowley for his IBF welterweight championship before Crowley withdrew. The only guy willing to step in was David Avanesyan and not Teofimo Lopez.

            Now you know!

              I was referring to Terence Crawford not Jaron Ennis. Bud would never fight him under market value.

              Trust me, it’s going to take a whole lot more than $2.5Mil for Bud to fight a Teofimo Lopez. He is well and beyond that stage of his career.

              However, if he wants all the smoke from Boots Ennis; Then by all means let him have at it. He should help himself.

              Just so long he is willing take a good ass whipping in the proces though. Myself and most boxing fans alike are down widdit!

                    Teo can’t even sell out the Madison Square Garden theatre in his hometown of NYC. Which is why Matchroom and Eddie Hearn won’t fuck with him. He lost them money.

                    So how in the Hell does he expect to receive at least a $10 Mil offer from your “Excellency” to fight either Bud or Boots when he can’t generate enough revenue?

Teo loves to complicate things. You had a title fight on the table vs. Norman for next month and you rejected it because it's in NY instead of LA. This is petty bullshxt. He's only ever headlined the MSG arena once vs. Sandor Martin. He wants to fight in LA, but allegedly can't even sell out his home arena first. That should be his mission. Talking about Ennis and Crawford when he doesn't even fight Norman who's on his side of the street! Or go to Australia and fight Liam Paro, and try to redeem your performance vs. Kambosos.





                      Ya know Kiaba... I have actually thought a lot about this issue with Teo: It is right up there on my bucket list to cure Cancer and solve the mystery of time travel. Used to drive me nuts and then it hit me... Teo gets that way because of his exceptionally large schnaz... snout, Probiscus, his beak... The thing sticks out and I mean it really covers some area. Rumor had it someone had it rented as a studio apartment.

                      Can you imagine how many times he ****s that thing? heck... it would make any one of us crazy, ornery, ill tempered and dyspeptic.
