the fight is possible because of Lomachenko

Huge props to Loma... I doubt many other fighters would do the same thing.

Credit to Lopez too for still taking this fight for less money.

Great fight! Really looking forward to it...

Props to both if everything I'm reading is true.

100%.

I'm a fan of the sport and want this to happen.

Diego Magdaleno and Richard Commey are the only credible world-level opposition that Teofimo has faced in his early career thus far. I count a total of 9 rounds between those two opponents, but BIG PROPS to Lomachenko for daring to be great.

I am just happy the fight got made no matter how it got made. I think Lopez is damn good but I still think Loma will beat him but I sure want to see it. I am hoping for Loma to win. Lopez is an excellent fighter but I don't like arrogant disrespectful braggers even when they are terrific fighters. I love to watch Lopez fight because he is so good and exciting but I still root against him. If he beats Loma boxing's biggest bragger will get much worse. Bragging is not against the law and some boxing fans love a sh it talking bragger but I am not one of them.

Lopez was asking for more money, he wasn't happy with his part. Loma then gave up part of his guaranteed purse so teofimo could get closer to a number he would be happy with. i'm sure if this wasn't the case and that that money didn't come from loma's pocket teo would have said something by now, rigth?

be happy, if it wasn't for this we would've gotten loma-verdejo instead and lopez vs god knows who.

Kudos to Loma. I wonder what bob promised him in order to get him to take less.

I would love to hear from Loma since I�ve only seen Bob comment on the pay cut.

I don't disagree with that.
