Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez: Davis, Haney Need To Fight Better Comp, They Are Fooling Critics, Fans

Pick one and fight him, Teofimo. Don't start hemming and hawing about it now. 3 years and a couple of divisions down the road and You'll be another sat-out-my-prime cause my dollars per hr weren't right. You think there's no talent in the pipeline? Not practical if you want to be a legend and not just another kinda rich guy. You'll have some money, but look at Bud. He'll be a footnote when stacked up against the likes of Hagler and Duran and Pacquiao and Joe Frazier. Deep esoteric discussions will be slowly played out over weeks and months and years in by old men in one of the classic sections regarding how you MIGHT have done matched with fighter X. But your body of work won't support a good conclusion. Don't end up like that. You're not gonna be broke. Fight a bunch of guys that actually have a chance at the height of their powers,. Be epic.

He isn’t wrong. Tank and Haney talk big but come up short on resume. Tank avoided Loma, said he was too young at age 23, 24 and even 25. Despite having more pro fights and having held a major title he lost on the scales. Teo didn’t offer any of those chickenshyt excuses. He went right after the top P4P fighter at age 23.

It's about being classy

Youi can't compare a new to the throne guys like Teo with HOFers. They put in the work and earned that right after beating many top guys.

He did something special once. His head has now tripled in size.

I remember when Andy Ruiz was talking garbage after his big win. How did that turn out ?

He didnt get lucky when he beat Loma. He actually beat him at his own game!

I never mentioned the word lucky.

He's too new to be talking this much

Lopez you had an unemphatic win...people are praising ( primarily blacks and hispanics) who hated loma because they felt he was white hype. Shut the **** up. You are no living legend to be talking so much ****

[boxingitis]

Haney has been calling him out, but Davis hasn't, and probably won't. He is under the Mayweather Protection...I mean Promotion Program.

I dont think Lopez is scare of Haney, he just fought one of the best fighters in the world. He went for the big fish.

so any white fighter that is successful is "white hype"

was Wlad Klitschko a white hype?

Totally to the bold, until that gutsy performance against Joshua. First time ever I thought Wlad had guts and was any good. He turned me into a fan with his last fight.
