There are a lot of good opponents at 140. I think Lopez is capable of beating Jose Ramirez.

Hopefully this fight happens next, Comney wants a tune up from what i heard last, and Loma should get through Crolla without any injury, hopefully Top rank Matchmakers would not stand between what Lopez want, and they would allow this fight to happen.

The only way this happens is if the WBC orders #1 Campbell vs. #4 Lopez, for the vacant WBC title! I can't see the skipping over 2 spots for Lopez!

Suprised as he has good route to title shot as present weight

"I’ve been telling everybody. I told Bob and I told everybody that if they want to push the fight with (Vasiliy Loma(chenko) to next year - I am going to say it like this, I gave them this whole year. If they want to push it to March I am not taking the fight. I am not going to wait that long. We could fight but it would be at a catchweight. I am not going to wait (at 135)." - Teofimo Lopez

That's when they will offer it....LOL

Give this kid the fight already!

Dude needs to fight somebody at 135 with a pulse before he starts talking about 140. We saw what happened to Linares when he moved up.

They always like to compare themselves to Floyd but Tefimo is about 5'6 3/4 with at 68" reach and Floyd is 5'7 3/4 with a 72" while it doesn't sound like much on paper that's a BIG difference as Floyd easily has the reach of a man who's about 5'10 or 5'11
