I think so. Let's look at the facts. They both have big mouths and make excuses after fights. Most notably lopez said his mind is not into the fight game at the moment because of family problems. Broner used to say the same things on twitter and social media when he was coming up. Lopez said post fight after facing the japanese journeyman that he will no longer be fighting guys 6 feet plus. Broner was hyped to be the p4p fighter of the decade by many and lopez is being hyped to beat p4p level fighters at this moment. Now the main similarity besides the hype is they got exposed when facing bums. Broner fought ponce and looked terrible. Lopez went 12 rounds with a bum and got hit with right hands at will. I think lopez is the next broner.
Is Teofimo Lopez the next Adrian Broner?

At least Broner, is a four divisional titleholder. Thus far, this kid hasn't achieved shit in his boxing career!Comment

After one fight?
The so called “boxing fans” are so fickle. If some of you were alive when Henry Cooper dropped Muhammed Ali and they had to use gamesmanship to let him recover, you would’ve written him off.
Let the young guy make mistakes and grow. Yes, he has a big mouth. However, it doesn’t negate how talented he’s.
Teo, Gervonta, Shakur, and Dubois are the future of boxing.Comment

In boxing to make good money and be a crossover star, it helps to sell yourself with self promotion. I get what he’s doing and why the mouth. But he needs to focus more on training and getting more prepared for fights. Floyd talked a lot of sh/t but according to multiple fighters and boxing people he busts his ass in the gym like no one they’ve ever seen. You gotta put in the work and the resume before you talk sh/t. But fighters like Broner and Lopez are talking sh/t first without the resume or the fights to back it up.Comment
