    Everybody is forgetting why Teo is calling out Boots. He wants to be "the man who beat the man" in his third weight division (he claims he has done it twice already). He wants to be a legend in his own mind. He is not scared of pillow fisted Haney and he is not interested in chasing a running chicken Haney for 12 rounds. Turki will have to really overpay Teo for him to even look at that fight.

      I think Teo prefers to be in a win-win situation with Ennis, rather than a lose-lose situation with Haney. I think Haney/Lopez should've happened instead of Haney/Garcia.

        It makes the most sense if no boots for Teo.

        Teo has yet to fight ryan, tank, or devin. The alledged 4 kings

          Annoying Pops and his boring Sonny Boy. Wouldn't it be nice - as the Beach Boys sang - if they would just go away

            But the truth is they were all old when Devin fought them. Jojo diaz I think was the youngest at 30. The first time Devin fought someone at the top and his age was Ryan.
            So what about ("Gordo") Teo? One can say the same exact thing about him. Weren't Vasiliy Lomachenko, Josh Taylor and Arnold Barboza all old when Teofimo beat them?

            Let's see. A well past his prime Loma was 32 when "Gordo" defeated him, Taylor was 32 when "Gordo" defeated him and Barboza was 33 when "Gordo" defeated him.

            Now I ask you to name a fighter that was good, at the top and was Teo's age when he defeated them? I'll wait! Devin didn't lose to Ryan Garcia. He lost to doping with performance enhancing drugs and steroids.

            Which was later overturned to a no contest.

              You are damn right. Teo won't call Devin Haney out because he is afraid of getting his ass whooped. Haney had been calling out all the big names for years. Three times Devin Haney has called out Teo.

              One was prior to his loss to Kambosos, another was when they were in negotiations with your "Excellency" and the last one was two years ago prior to his Josh Taylor fight; Where Teo Sr told Bill Haney they wanted $20 Mil to fight Devin Haney.

              However, none of the big names at 135 would go nowhere near Devin Haney; For the exception George Kambosos, Jr. Loma, R. Garcia, Teo (Gordo) Lopez and Tank Davis all ducked this kid for several years.

                However, Team Lopez doesn’t seem to want any of the smoke from Devin Haney. They keep ducking him. I wonder why?

                He stands a much better chance of defeating Haney than a Jaron “Boots’ Ennis. Boots would absolutely stomp kick the living shit out of him.
                Teo probably gasses out running after Haney.
