So, is Teofimo Lopez still ducking and a coward?

This made me laugh. Joe is part of Teo’s management team. 😫 pic.twitter.com/JJLoFsK11L

Be interesting to see what happened there, presumably the implication is that Bob / ESPN coughed up the balance for Teo. Kinda suggests the fight was worth enough to 'em to have offered him more to begin with if true.

Well, the source is every boxing news outlet, including "BoxingScene."

"In the end, Lopez will get closer to $2 million with Lomachenko said to have been willing to give up a piece of his purse to help get the deal done."

So who's telling the truth? He may be Lopez's manager but he might not know what Loma is doing or Arum, for that matter.

I do believe I'll rely on these news sources and not someone whose and advocate for just one of the boxers.

I suppose, in the end, it wasn't 800k. I suppose it might have been 600k, more or less, but without too much deviation. Maybe between 300k and 799k. Either way, it's an unprecedented move, power play, as far as I know. I don't know of any other boxer who has done something like that.

Yeah, right now just another he said, she said situation.. I make a point of not trusting anyone in the industry outright which is why I often hedge my posts so much (as in this case). Mainly just interested in seeing what further info comes out in the upcoming weeks and months.

yall make it sound like: told you guys, Teo made it.

Loma gave Teo $ out of his pocket. so yeah, if not for him - he would of kept ducking.

and i would definately feel like a coward, if some other man had to feed my kids and wife. jeez, some of you folks were dumb and wont change

Boom.......

[Smash]

u can go from a coward and a ducker to a smart operator in a flash, i never got any impression that teo didnt want the fight he just wanted to get paid for it, which he is doing now

You know what's a joke? Guys on here in other people's wallets and purses. Give me a break! They don't even know the guy, a guy who will make more money than they will in the entirety of their life, and they're going on and on about what's fair and what's not fair.

The irony is that if Lopez would have just taken the first offer, they would have clapped and sung songs about Lopez, about how he understands the current affairs and economy.

It's cringe worthy hearing these guys talk as if they know what's good and what's right.

The only reason everyone else was upset was due to Lopez not signing the contract to make the fight. Everyone else could care less how much money Lopez or Lomachenko make. But not these guys. They're like those old women who've got nothing better to do than be up in other people's business.

There's a difference between rooting for the fighter you like and sucking the other guys nuts. These guys are acting as if they are in love, like they're his ***** and can't stand to see their boyfriend not get the money they feel he deserves.. Please ... GTFOH.

It's funny.

These guys show up and pretend like they were right all along when all we, actual boxing fans wanted was Teo to sign the damn contract. 1.2 million was more than fair and the contract details haven't even been released and they're celebrating! LMFAO!

The same guys defending Teofimo think he deserves more than 25% but when it comes to Canelo negotiations and hes offer guys 12% of the pot won't say a word. WHY DO YOU THINK THAT IS?

They'll argue if you want to make big money you need to beat the cash cow. But Lopez who is a complete nobody gets this exception because........?

The only reason this fight is being made is because Teo looks like a fuxking ass in the eyes of the public and Lomachenko PERSONALLY made sure it would happen by volunteeringly reducing his own purse to do so.

Its crazy how pathetic these "men" are isnt it? Just wait until you meet the Canelo fanclub.

Kinda looks like some of yous went a little too hard trying to suck off Loma there.

But yeah Loma is gonna push Teofimo's shit in though...

Yet, I’m sure you pointed the finger the other way, called Loma the ducker and coward and are not even going to acknowledge that he took money out of his own pocket to agree to the fight on different terms to what had already been agreed?

Why would I call Loma a ducker?

So now y’all are just going to run with this blatant lie to justify sucking loma off and giving him preferential treatment even more right after you’ve all been proven wrong? You've still got idiots talking about the low ball offer was fair and Lopez should be ashamed to get more money. You people really have no shame lol. It’s astounding.

[R-Hand Southpaw]

great matchup! pumped that its on!

lopez was never scared! just a bunch of insecure internet fgts whos internet pride and ego that are tied to him....this is a great matchup..props to both guys for making this fight and full props to the winner either way!

its too bad there are a bunch of little boys whod rather see the fight squashed over lopez's perceived greed than see the chance that he wins

How to catch a hypocrite 101

So Teofimo "deserved" more than 25% right?

But what about Canelo offering Callum smith and BJS 6 million?

POINT PROVEN

LAUGHS IN LOMACHENKO

RUSSIAN HA HA HA

For you guys it was never about the money quit playing lmfao.
