Team Lomachenko thought they were going to beat Teofimo, and that didn’t happen, and now they got to live with it. Was it arrogance on Lomachenko and his team’s part not to include a rematch clause in the fight? Perhaps.
Loma is used to winning, and it was assumed that the young 23-year-old upstart Teofimo would fall by the wayside like the others.
IBF/WBA/WBC/WBO lightweight champion Teofimo says Lomachenko can eat the loss because he’s moving on with his career towards bigger and better things.
One fight that Teofimo is interested in for 2021 is to take on the winner of the 140-pound unification match between champions Josh Taylor and Jose Ramirez.
