Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez Eyeing $5 Million In Spring Return To Ring At MSG In New York

[rickJen]

Thurman just asked for $10 Million for the Crawford fight did he not?

Are you saying they're on the same level?
How many step up fights did Thurman get before getting $2 million?

This Tia clown got only one and he's already asking 5x more.
Come on doe. Stop this nonsense. It's not good for fans.
They end up getting less meaningful fights a year.

Never seen this kind of greed before.
Where will the money come from?
Keith One Time Thurman never demanded that kind of money.
Even though he's 10x more popular than this clown when he was active.

Teofimo took less than what he wanted for the Lomachenko fight.

He won so now he deserves to to get paid more. It's simple.

No problem with him getting more than whoever he fights next.
But, yeah, good luck with him getting $5 mil in these pandemic times.

We're just that FANS of BOXING! For them this is a Business, this is a Job, this is how they take care of their families and secure the Future for their Family

So yeah as fans "Oh Shut Up Just Make The Fight" but the reality is that yes all these fighters are looking to be paid and make the most money possible every time they get in the ring

Legacy, Resume, all that is NICE and that is what we Boxing Fans want to hear but behind closed doors with their Promoter, Manager, Advisor or whoever, it is 1000% about Maximizing and making the most money possible and how in the hell can I get mad at them for that when they're the ones taking punches to the face not me



Cong**** to Teofimo! Now Go Get Your Money!

[Saborconclave]

Smh

Working on his primadona status. Looking forward to his first azz whipping. If anyone needs humbling is this dude! It's obvious his dad has no character to teach any!

Haha, Lopez has been reading all about the travels to Australia and has become a little scared of maybe having to leave the US.

Americans hate travelling like no other nation. They lose nearly every time they do so. Lopez is trying to stop it with his money demands by convincing the Australians that 5 Mill is the minimum so they better be willing to put up a lot more than that to get him over there.

But can Arum match the money the Aussies are willing to put up considering the fight means more over there than in the US? How much would Arum lose trying to keep Lopez safe at home in a purse bid?

This is going to get interesting. But Lopez clearly doesn't like that kind of talk. He's already having mental doubts about whether he could win on the road or not.

I'm keeping a close eye on this one because it could get really delusional and embarrassing with all the madness that gets said.

Deserve doesn't have anything to do with it. The only thing that matters is what the market will bear. If those calling the shots feel that a fight with Teo is worth more, they will pay him more. That's just economics.

1. Walter's was offered short $$ and turn Lomo down. He was also in a $ dispute with top stank Arum and was on shelf for damn near 18months b4 he fought Lomo after they upped $$. He should've had a tuneup also.

2. Top stank made Rigo move up 2 full weight classes at age 40. Lomo was scared to at least meet the man half way. That fight shouldn't of happened.

3. Nobody in boxing history had the pampering Lomo had especially after losing his 2nd pro fight to slow as malissis Salida. After that loss Lomo got an unprecedented 2nd title shot without having 4 fights.

3. Lomo lost 2 fights out of 14. That's unheard of in boxing history unless u get preferential treatment.

4. It was a total DISRESPECT to let the kid become NO.1 P4P with that record.

You are beyond delusional on a scary level.

Rigo was offered the fight with Loma at Featherweight for more money but he turned it down. Loma wasn't going to stay at the weight for someone who wasn't willing to take the fight. He wanted the best and was easy to deal with. Rigo ended up taking the fight at a higher weight for less money. That is Rigo's fault, and his fault alone. It wasn't like Loma was a natural at Superfeatherweight. He moved up for challengers, not because he couldn't make weight any more.

Loma was the most pampered boxer in history? Have you forgotten about pretty much most Americans throughout history or something?

Loma lost two fights in 16, which is unheard of in boxing history? Even though from the second fight he was fighting at world level and not going through the usual shot fighters and bums like most do? Sit down and don't post this level of nonsense again. Most have lost two out of 16 fights at world level in history. And he didn't even lose to them either. Salido came in as a Welterweight and cheated throughout the fight. He should have been stopped from doing that and had points taken which would have had the judges scoring it for Loma. And i had the Lopez fight a draw. But we all know about North Americans getting bullshlt decisions against those from overseas.

How many Americans can you name that won the fight or drew against an overseas fighter only to not get the decision on the cards? I can name you fights for days with overseas fighters getting ripped off after winning over there. But can't even think of one time the American won but got shafted against the overseas guy? Hmmm.

The only disrespect was allowing you to post on here. This place needs some quality control and needs to get rid of the freaks with their madness all the time. No normal person wants to read this crazy f3cked up shlt. It's insane.

He'd KO Kambosos though
