Gustavo, your efforts are commendable here although you’re probably aware that there is less than 1% that Teo fulfills the obligation to face either opponent.
Teo should take the fight because he will never get that cash out fight that he so desperately seeks. It's because he lacks both the crossover appeal and a large following among casual fans.
However, this decision is left entirely up to him. If not, then he could always vacate his Junior welterweight WBO title. It's so sad that he decided to burn his bridges.
That's just as good a fight as any for that jackass Teo. He just can't stop getting in his own way. Imagine if he had the humility and work ethic of a Beterbiev...
Bottom line with Teo is, he's a very inactive fighter. He can be on social media ranting and saying dumb racist sh...t, and simp sh...t about his wife and how she's now getting some black anaconda in her life, and how Bob is ruining his career and blah blah blah. But the main thing is, he's not in the ring and he's not fighting often enough to ever reach, or even approach greatness. He's a new age sensitive p..uhhssy ass mofo that wants to pick who he fights instead of lining them up and beating them all. He prefers to sidestep many great challenges and opportunities, in exchange for one fight HE wants. Who tf is he to be a diva like that? He fights once a year, and when he does, he gets both of his eyes swelled up like 2 purple yams and based on performances like that, he thinks he should be able to pick who his opponents are? Bruh ur not worth that much. You're gonna get your issue real soon in the ring, trust me on that. Way too many flaws for such a big ego

My guess is that he will have to do something, just like when he fought Steve Claggett. He has rejected a few lucrative fights and those fighters have already found alternative dance partners. Right now his only ace is that he has a belt. He has been waiting for the Ryan Garcia money but that does not look like happening in the next 12 months at least and Ryan will fight at 147. So his options are going to be Richardson Hitchins or Jack Catterall (assuming he wins). My guess is he chooses to keep his belt by fighting Catterall in England because that is where Eddie will offer him the most money.
