Comments Thread For: Bradley: Teofimo Lopez Kind of Reminds Me of a Young Roy Jones

[Dizneyfist]

Lol, you're a joke bruh.

Austin Trout went on to never win against an elite fighter again, just goes to show he wasn't elite to begin with.

Daniel Jacobs had been a KO victim before and knocked down by bums, and also had a loss to GGG. He was never elite, just hyped up to make GGG and Canelo look better than they were.

The fact that they were so willing to fight Jacobs but wouldn't give the undefeated and superior black guys a fight should tell you all you need to know.

That's how the business is run nowadays.

Great white/hispanic hope syndrom.

Duck all the black guys, proclaiming yourself the best while doing so.

Can't even believe you had the nerve to mention Lara when it was clear that was a robbery.

Canelo can't even win any fights convincingly at the elite level. Always controversial robbery score cards.

Jacobs is elite. Imho he beat GGG more convincingly than Canelo, which I thought lost the first and maybe a draw in the second. Jacobs showed his chin quality when facing the world class fighters. If you believe this why when Jacobs confronted Mall about the "Beep Beep" comment (roadrunner joke in reference to Jacobs changing promoters) he denied it and never made any attempt to fight him. Jacobs is elite and proved he could share the ring with any champion.

Wtf is Bradley on?

Personally I would rather see how Haney would do against Nakatani because he would've been a much better option than Gamboa to gauge how well he handles a taller fighter who to also faced Teofimo.

I don't share the sentiments of wanting to see him in with Nakatani because of his height. But I would like to have seen him because it would be another common opponent with Lopez. I would think there's some sorta travel restrictions but I doubt team Haney was even thinking about him, cause I surely wasn't. In terms of "name" you know "they" might not like that tho.

People talking about these black superior boxers but yet most are fighting no hopers. Mall and Haney are calling out the best but haven't done anything worth talking about against top contenders. Mall fighting bums for almost two years until recently and Haney's calling out the best but fighting a shell of himself Gamboa. When these guys do what Jacobs did and Whyte do and get rid of top contenders and best challengers that are familiar or have a strong track records then you could talk about them deserving this and that. I'm tired of the Tanks of the world claiming to be the best and fighting guys overseas that no one has heard of with padded records. Fool the casuals with that bs but you aren't fooling the hardcore unbiased fans.

Watch when Teo loses everyone is gonna do the same to him that people are doing to Lomachenko!

Dissecting his resume and criticizing his flaws! As long as Teo stays away from Haney or Josh Taylor he’ll stay undefeated!

Timothy Bradley is a terrible analyst/color commentator. Please get rid of him! Is Paulie Malinaggi looking for work. I like Andre Ward.

[Superbee]

Easy on Bradley guys... I like little Timmy...

[thesmokingman]

Think he means Roy Jones post-2004.

[Boxing-1013]

Looks quick to me. Loma seemed a bit surprised by his speed and sharpness

He’s not flashy like someone like RJJ but I think Lopez is deceptively quick, especially with one punch anyway

Yeah I mean quickness obviously goes with explosiveness, so I probably didn't word that great.

I guess fluidity of movement with his boxing is a better way to put it, imo. RJJ had that in spades. Teo is a bit like Wilder to me. Quick enough but not necessarily with combos, punches in bunches, etc.
