Teofimo Lopez: Stop Low Balling Me or No Fight

[The Big Dunn]

Lol and Lopez isn’t even close to what PAC was at that stage. Where is Lopez popularity coming from? Loma dominates him all over in social media and has Lopez even had a main event ESPN+ card yet? Loma and Crawford did 1mill+, Lopez is way out of his league. He is a nobody.

If Lopez was a nobody, he wouldn't be in feature bouts after the Heisman ceremony on ESPN. They are building him to be an opponent for Loma, we get that. Again, not saying Loma shouldn't get more. Just think the split is too much.

I notice you didn't answer what you'd do if you were Lopez. Tells me you wouldn't accept this deal either. Can you at least admit it.

What he thinks about the fight has no bearing on what the purse split is. That is just asinine for you to post. Loma is getting what amounts to a 75/25 split. There is no way that is fair and you know it.

Loma appears to be taking less but is it half of what he was initially guaranteed? If it is half then yes, Lopez should also be willing to take half. That said, a 75/25 split is extremely unfair.

I didn't claim he was the A side so why are you asking me to prove something I didn't state in my post? I posted Loma should get more.

Now be honest about what you'd do if you were Lopez in this situation.

He isn't taking the fight because his offer is below what he should make.

I'm not the poster you are quoting but I'll chime in anyway look If I was lopez yes I would take the fight for the money amount of money being offered. everybody has taken or will take a pay cut due to the current circumstances. lopez will break and take the money he's getting hammered on social media and he can't deal with that. the fans and the media will blame him for the fight not happening. at the end of the day IF lopez really does refuse it will only hurt his pockets because he won't fight at all this year and he misses out on a loma fight forever.

I take you at your word and respect your position. I don't think social media and fans opinion will affect his decision in any way.

I think you are right about him not fighting if he doesn't take it. It's as if Bob is doing this so he will make that decision.

If Lopez doesnt take this fight now it will never happen. Lopez will be at 140 in a few months and Loma should actually be at 130 or 126 . Lopez should go for it and either have a spectacular win or learn from a really good fighter in a loss.

[Derranged]

This is exactly what Lomachicken and the Bobfather want because Lopez would win by 1st round KO!!

[Fangedgrowl]

I would love to see Teo and Tank at 140. Rock em sock em robots!!! I see Haney going up there too and Garcia will eventually be at 140 0r 147 pretty soon as well.

Im not looking to look through pages of my responses because I'm certain I responded directly you or one of your fellow black supremists.

Would I take this fight?

Absolutely.

Especially if I spent over a year calling this guy out and I thought he was nothing special.

Didn't Teo predict a 2nd round knock out? Did Teo not say he would fight Lomachenko with or without fans? Isn't he the guy who called lomachenko "easy" and a "little diva"?

Only one guy has been talking **** and he's the guy who is refusing to fight.

You guys keep talking about fair but 1.2 million is extremely fair especially in these times.

If he was so confident in himself like he claims he is take the fight. Its easy. Youre not going to make 135 soon as Lopez claims so capitalize on the opportunity.

But nah man. Your legit only argument is when you break the fight down into percentages because that's the only way it fits your agenda.

Tell me man. You think Smith should only make 5M to Canels 35M? What percentage is that?

Or even better yet. Why was Floyd make tens of millions and his opponents pennies? Wanna tell me those percentages?

All you want to argue the same thing, percentage, but refuse to provide any evidence why he deserves more.

He is NOT a bigger draw
He is NOT more accomplished
He is NOT more popular

I made a whole thread dedicated to guys just like you to provide your evidence as to why Teo is worth more than 1.2m.

Guess how many have taken me up on that? ZERO

Care to guess why?

[Zaroku]

75/25 split basically

Non **** kisses

[Cypocryphy]

Teo has not yet proven hes that special. Hes good though but has NEVER met adversity.

Yeah. Floyd fought his way to that point with more than thirty fights under his belt. He was a two division champion by then, and was fighting Gatti for his third division championship. And he had multiple title defenses for the other belts. Teofimo hasn't done that. Like you said, he's had no adversity. He hasn't defended that belt. I mean, he's a new champ. It's ridiculous. The kid just needs to take that offer and not mess it up.
