    I don't think they'll fight Haney. He's too high risk, low reward.

    If the Tank vs Santa Cruz PPV does well maybe they look at Gervonta. I could also see a Lomachenko rematch.

    Aside from that there's nothing else at 135 lbs. So Lopez likely moves up to 140.

      Gotta love Teo's determination, Look out Floyd's undefeated record.... Teo's breaking that record, no questions about that!!

      I'm betting with Teo, all future fights... these returns are better than Wall Street's returns!

        I feel they have a love hate relationship. They have already thrashed out financial terms between Fury and AJ . The fight can be made especially if both fighters want it

I’m not saying Devin should take pennies, but he and his team def have to let go of having control of which network airs the fight in order to make this happen, and for that reason I highly doubt this fight is made. Would DAZN want to take that risk of getting back their paper champion without his belt, having not benefited at all from the match ? We will see. I like the idea of these young guys fighting and hope it happens.
          Why do you care who's the A side and B side? Stick to being a fan and let the boxer's team worry about that stuff. smh

            I bet he doesn’t even get to 20-0..... However, if he is as ambitious as he has shown ,likelihood he will not get to 49–0. Albeit he deserves the praise that comes his way but I still believe his defence needs tightening

              Lopez should enjoy his victory for a long time. Later on there can be discussion of potential fights with Haney, Davis, and who knows, even welterweight against Crawford and Spence.

                Teo has all the belts at light weight already. Why stay there? At 140 go for all the belts and on the way to get the belts, take Mikey Garcia once and for all from the equitation. Mikey never got a win like Lopez and now he becomes the B side with a 23 year kid. Only a few than 20 fights and he has all the belts. Match that Mikey!

                  He's not fighting the winner of Ramirez-Taylor they already made it clear win or lose they are going to 147 still there is some good match ups at 140 for him I'd like to see him vs Zepeda or Barboza that would be a good entry fight probably for a vacant belt somewhere and then maybe he can unify again and become undisputed. All I know is he can't back up with his hands down against the ropes like he did in the later rounds against Loma a bigger puncher will put him down he has been put down before so he can be hurt just haven't seen it in the pros yet also needs to work on his stamina a bit but weight could play a factor with that and might be better at jr welter.

                    If he gets caught like in the Loma fight, he'll get knock it out at 140.

                      Totally agree, imagine if that was Prograis raining power punches on him and catching him clean. Even Jose Zepeda would knock him out if he doesnt tighten up his defense at 140. Some folks are even saying a Lopez-Crawford or even a Spence fight at 147 would be ideal in the future lol!
