    Too right about this look at me, notice me society. I am thisclose to swearing off of NFL due to every fuc king guy celebrating every fuc king little thing. Jumping around like straight up fools.

    Anyway, this can be a learning curve for the kid. The fight will most likely happen and if not, he will be looked at in a different, unflattering light.

    3 for Loma, 1 for him....not bad.
    U nailed it. So many nfl players losing their mind for getting a last minute garbage sack or even a first down in a game that they are actually getting pulverized in. It’s like they know it will still go on their highlight reel and work towards a contract negotiation. Which sigh I’m sure it does. Playing for themselves and not their team or fans. I want the guy that never quits cause that makes u better but is too ashamed to dance around like and idiot when they are getting pulverized. Too many people want to be “exciting” after the play ends. Give me sum “no huddle” so there’s no time for that on either side of the ball. At least there was Barry.

    Agreed 3/1 split isn’t bad at all. I mean okay twist an arm to 70/30, but to only fight at something like 60/40 would be audacious. Loma should be the one walking away. I think Loma might box his ears off. I haven’t studied Teo too much, still I don’t think he will out perform whatever split he gets as far as in ring. It’s not like he would agree to get paid per round he wins.

      This is why ESPN doesn't care about boxing and focuses on UFC. You have to close the deal on your in house fights.

        Pay him if that's what it takes to make the fight happen, but grubbing for more money by holding an anticipated fight hostage when it was already effectively agreed to is never a good look, and especially not right now.

          Let's cool down here.
          GGG was a champion for over 5 years and held 3 of the 4 major belts at MW. He had also headlined cards and PPVs prior to Canelo.

          He was also the undisputed #1 guy at 160 and a guy Canelo needed to cement his legacy.

          Yet somehow you think GGG deserved less than 25% and Teofimo Lopez deserves more than 25%?

          LMFAO. Based on what? His SKIN COLOR?

          But of course you won't say that and of course you have zero facts to back anything you say up. Seems to me that you just like boxers who are straight up cowards who do a lot of talking and no biting.

          Like Canelo says GGG is easy. You think it was easy work for Canelo but he didn't want GGG when GGG was fresh. He needed to wait for GGG to decline. Too afraid of GGG so he waited till 2016. Then when he got humiliated he got busted on PEDs. Then after a very close competitive fight he says GGG is too easy but somehow wants GGG in 2021 instead of 2018 when it would have made the most sense.LMFAO.

          OR your other favorite. Tank the duck Davis who wants to talk a lot of trash but his first step up at 135 against Gamboa he looked like garbage despite Gamboa being literally on one leg and a standing target. Plus the guy couldn't even make weight! And somehow he's gonna make 130 against LSC who is small for 130 right?

          Lmfao. There's plenty of guys to fight at 135 and Tank chose no one. Instead he chose a 126 pounder for a fight at 130, a weight he consistently struggles to make.

          Seems to me like you just like defending cowards.

            Lopez is tailor made for Lomachenko and his only chance in hell is to pray for something to land.

            What makes elite boxers elite is that they always have really good defense. Even the guys who aren't known for their defense need to have good defense at the highest level.

            Teofimo lopez gets hit with a ton of jabs and uses a shoulder roll and bend at the waist to avoid most shots. Against Lomachenko hes got zero chance imo.

            As much as people hype Teofimo up I highly doubt he's any faster or stronger or hits harder than some of the opposition Loma has faced. That is hype.

            Imagine a shoulder roll vs lomachenko rotating to the outside. Imagine Teo trying to react to Lomachenkos feints. Imagine Teo trying to avoid that straight left.

            Also. How much experience does Lopez have vs southpaw?

            Id say Lomachennk KO6 but I think Lomachenko is going to punish Teo as long as he has the opportunity.

            Look at Rigo vs Lomachenko. Rigo talked the most amount of **** and Lomachenko came with his A game and humilated him.

              Another guy spending so much time crying that he wants a fight and then turning it down when he gets the chance. The David Haye of his division

                Lopez is worth twice that easy so fight should still get made. If this is on regular ESPN no way this isn’t a mega event.

                All fight fans know Loma from MMA to boxing and Lopez is known as well.

                Pacquiao broke records fighting Horn, this fight could beat that one in ratings.
                Huge opportunity for Lopez. That in itself is the reward. He doesn’t want it.

                    It's crazy how ruined the sport has gotten with massively overpaid figures and purses (thanks Fraud). How the hell can any fighter expect to think they can make what they did PRE-PANDEMIC or even MORE?

                    You're going to lose the live gate if nobody can sit in an arena and watch it. That's 1 revenue loss. Then of course, less people are willing to let their $$$ go if they've been struggling with job loss and financial crisis. The last thing they're going to do is pay a PPV price tag for a fight.

                    I don't know, it's a messed up situation. Worse for fighters who were JUST about to come to those massive paycheck rewards like a Crawford or Spencer Jr. Like this could have literally ruined their career in respect to them facing the best while their at their best and making the most of it. They can literally lose out on those big pay checks at this moment and never get it back.

                      Absolutely agree...and then you got idiots in here saying "just pay the man"...like network's are running a damn charity and in the business to lose money. Loma barely moves the needle himself as far as ratings go let alone teofimo for christ sake. Ask any tom,**** n harry who Teofimo Lopez is and they will have no goddamn clue.Outside of DAZN,seems like we've come to the point now where were going to be asked to pay $80 dollar ppvs for any freakin mediocre matchup now,ridiculous.
