    Who built Teo? His dad, a Honduran. Who built Loma, his dad, in Ukraine. It's a venue for a global sport. They are not taking anything away. If anything we should be thrilled that Arabs respect boxing too and if they want to host two top fighters from Ukraine and Honduras, that's great. Global respect for the sport. For SA, that's like them hosting the Olympics for them. A fight of the year on paper. A fight for undisputed. The three belt P4P against an unbridled massively aggressive world champion. Should Ukraine be upset that Loma fights in the states? They are not. Broaden your view of the world. The stage is a global venue. The planet is the stage and we all get to enjoy it together.

      Where did all this building go on? Not Honduras, not the Ukrain, it all happened in America. Tell me one fight Lopez fought in Honduras, or Vasyl in the Ukrain. World stage my eye.

          It's a spectator sport, where a fan base makes the star. I agree, money makes the world go round, but when billionaires come into a thuosandaire game, the ante goes up. Everybody pays more rent. Raise the ante before they get in the game, pull some teeth before they chew you up. I'm not saying don't go, I'm saying get PAID. They brag about the money they have, get a chunk, they'll only give it to somebody else.

            I wanna see fights happen. I don't care where they happen. As long as the fight happens next, it might as well be on the moon.

                    Not sure what that has to do with anything, since Loma and Lopez are both signed to Top Rank
