Makes sense, it definitely stood out to me when I saw the quote. Obviously these are also quotes someone just picked up for the article, so it's not like he was being interviewed or anything like that.

True true. But, I'm gonna still stick with my original post because Spence has no reason to be thanking Lopez 😂.

Not understanding the he was gonna get robbed anyway statements. It doesn't matter! He got beaten, clean.

Teddy a piece of arrogant sh_t

You may not like his persona but he’s done great works with troubled kids inside and outside the ring. He’s reinvigorated boxing careers of those that people wrote off (Timothy Bradley) and made them champions again. Your critique of him couldn’t be further from the truth. He’s harnessed great champions (Mike Tyson amateur career). He’s a HOF trainer for a reason and a great ambassador and philanthropist for the sport.

“ Founded the Dr. Theodore Atlas Foundation in 1997 in honor of his father. The main mission of the Foundation is the awarding of scholarships and grants to worthy individuals and organizations based upon scholastic potential, community service, athletic achievement, and economic need.”

Always have been, and I was around Mike when Cus was their Teddy was just the help. *** Teddy and his biased ass opinion and you too! If you don’t like I’m in Michigan, he’s an ass and Lomachenko got his ass beat clean! I’m a fan but an ass whipping is what it is.

All sound good

Except for that bias pos Atlas who’s still trying to taint Lopez win.

Fuxxxk that pos Atlas.

watch the fight--it was not that dominant of LOPEZ.

most of his shots were slop. And those uppercuts were not clean and HBO kept hyping them

It was a fix, look at the ****ing cards

Lopez won that fight but the scoring was horrible. Atlas's comments were spot on. The 119-109 score for Lopez was way off. Stevie Wonder could have judged a better fight than the last judge Julie Lederman. Loma waited too late to start fighting. Lopez was ready and studied Loma for a long time. Loma being off for 14 months had something to do with it but wouldn't good sparring sessions help getting a fighter ready for a fight of this magnitude?

Good fight and I am glad it wasn't PPV.

Took him 7 rounds to come to the conclusion I have to take the risk and fight this guy... when he did get lopez on the back foot he was backin lopez up... but too little too late. I gave loma 4 clear rounds. Based on 2 of them cards, loma was never gonna win regardless. Lopez earned the victory no doubt but them scores were terrible.

well said.

119 -109 ooowwweeee that was a good fight but that score was so disrespectful

Even though I had the fight closer, my prediction was Teo for the win. But those scorecards was.... Outlandish. That fight was close as hell.

How were the scores unfair???

Loma threw barely in the double digits for 6 rounds, how was he winning any of those 6 rounds? Then Lopez won AT LEAST the last round and you can give rounds 8-11 to Loma maybe. Lopez won 7 rounds minimum....minimum mate. Get out of here with that nonsense.

Loma lost the first seven rounds clean. Rounds eight to eleven he did much better, but doing better and winning isn't the same thing.

Those were all swing rounds except maybe for round 10.

Ain't no robbery, ain't no bogus scorecards here.

Loma lost period.

People have this nasty habit of wanting to give someone a round because he did better in that round than previous.

That's not how it works.

Better or not, you still have to actually win the round.

You're hitting him more than you did before?

Useless if he is also hitting you more and hurting you more.

Both these comments are spot on.

... it's simple... fighters from the Ex-Soviet school just can't come and get the American money in the industry... it's all about the market protectionism, doe... which is fine...

I'm not following on how protectionism is fine.
