Teofimo lopez...

[JRock1025]

Like I said before...this is only a good fight if Lopez captures a belt or becomes Mando. Lomachenko is trying to become undisputed. That's why he was scheduled to fight Commey and probably will fight Commey after this one. If Lopez can get a belt, Loma will fight him. If he can't maneuver himself into a position that Lomachenko wants to fight him...he's irrelevant for Loma because he would be a waste of time with nothing to gain. People act like they want this fight so bad right now, but they will make the excuse 'he wasn't ready', 'he was still green' if Lopez loses. If Lopez can get a belt, Loma should get credit for the win. So let's see Lopez do just that and the fight can maybe even happen for undisputed. Then it's a great fight!

Spot on bro.. Could not have said it better..

To say Lomachenko is scared or anything is ******. So let's stop with that.

But he is young, but he is the goods and wants the fight. He looks to be the real deal. If you want him to get a solid win first, that is fair. Has he beaten anyone of note yet? No, of course not. But that's why TR wants to give him a step up fight later this year and set up the Lomachenko fight.

Tank is young, but he is good enough to compete with Lomachenko. It is his people who are a bit hesitant in making that fight happen. Lopez's people aka his pops and manager have no problem making the fight right now. So what's the problem? Davis' own camp doesn't want the fight yet and that's why it has never been seriously discussed. Totally opposite with Lopez.

Lopez would beat the crap out of all of Lomachenko's recent opponents. So let me ask you, why are YOU so opposed to the fight? If Lomachenko schools and embarrasses him then so be it. Doesn't hurt Lomachenko does it? Why would you rather see him fight guys like Crolla or Pedraza who wouldn't last 12 with Lopez?

How do we know he beats the crap out of linares at lightweight? He's literally looked good against bums cool the hype ffs. You can't just say some kid whoops estabilished fighters cause he looks good against bums.

boxing is all about hype, u have to have people to get excited about and matchups, sometimes the underdog does have his day too

Whoa! No common sense is allowed here, lol.

I agree with you 100%

I already stated in another post in this thread that I would give respect to Linares but still pick Lopez in that fight. But yes, he would beat the crap out of Marriaga/Crolla/Sosa/Pedraza level of opponents.

There's more to just beating "bums" as you say. The eye test matters as well. I mean by those standards, what made people think Davis could beat Pedraza? Who did Davis beat before fighting Pedraza? What made people believe Mayweather could beat someone so proven at 130 in Genaro Hernandez?

I just don't get why you are so against this. You care THAT much about Lomachenko not getting any credit for beating a 21 year old? I mean I'm sure he is getting LOADS of credit for beating Crolla, huh? Got SO much credit for beating Marriaga and Sosa..........

Ooooh come one please go **********, go do something. Whining all day long!!!

[The Big Dunn]

This guys suddenly the talk of the town for some reason. Who has he beat? Why is he now the boogeyman for the p4p number 1? I thought tank is too young but lopez who is a few years younger is ready to go right now and already good enough to beat lomachenko???? Because people are demanding the fight does that mean lomachenko gets credit if he beats him??? Am i missing something cause this kid is a prospect and an absolute nobody, pretty sure people were crying about lomachenkos amateur record only being great cause he fought kids, but now they are demanding he fights one straight away or 'he scared'

Why is it ok for you to slurp ggg before he beat anyone of substance but you criticize anyone that does same for Lopez now? You did same with Spence.

This just looks really suspect on your part. While most will assume it’s just you being your usual British Archie Bunker, it is more than likely rooted in your lust for GGG.

How about you just let other posters slurp guys they like the same way you slurped ggg . stop the hypocrisy dramashow.

Lopez is a 21 year old nobody whos not in the top 20 on boxrec. People can say hes a good prospect but to build him as some boogeyman is laughable. I bet lopez will change his mind anyway if fight got offered to him.

GGG was an olympic medalist and amateur 3x world champion that was pretty known in the scene, and was already a champion. Had people ducking him left and right.

Still, the OP just likes to whine.

When there’s positive posts about Lopez (Hispanic) it’s who’s he beat? When there’s positive posts about Tank Davis (Black) it’s who’s he beat? When there’s positive posts about Inouoe (Asian) it’s who’s he beat? But back when ggg was hammering one no hoper after another, you made post after post about him being p4p #1. Why the double standard? Never mind, I already know..........

You didn't hear? It's the new cool thing to hate on eastern euros like lomo and ggg.
