Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez: Commey Fight Is Big, Changes Everything

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Teofimo Lopez realizes those that don't consider him an elite lightweight won't change their minds until he at least beats a world champion. That's among the reasons Lopez views his fight against Richard Commey as the most important moment of his career to date. The 22-year-old Lopez (14-0, 11 KOs) will challenge Ghana's Commey (29-2, 26 KOs) for his IBF 135-pound championship Saturday night at Madison Square Garden in New York.

Teofimo has recently had trouble making weight. That being said, today is crucial that he doesn't go over the limit as that would be a blowback to his career in terms of being one of the youngest prospects to win a world title. No belt, no fight with Loma. Simple as that.

Really looking forward to this one

Hope he went back to basics old school training. Anyways Syle wize, I think Commey is an easy mark for well schooled fighters. Commey just doesn't manage distance very well and those punches are wide enough for a well schooled boxer to connect.

Not an easy fight, but like Ugas... there issues with the delivery that create big openings from a nasty counter.

This is the main fight of the card hoelpefully Teo can get that belt and then Loma this coming year.

Commey should let his hands go too. Pretty pumped for this fight.

"So, you know, we finish [2019] with a **** and we start [2020] off with a boom.”
Lopez plans to cath a **** from Commey and then wake up in the 2020th and say that last thing he remembers is the BOOM?

Gonna be a good fight
