    Teofimo Lopez is THEE man at 135 and calls the shots.

    un·dis·put·ed

    /ˌəndəˈspyo͞odəd/

    Learn to pronounce

    adjective

    not disputed or called in question; accepted.

    "the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world"
    This reminds me of a joke from a comedian I can't recall right now:

    If they're undisputed then what is all the fighting about


    When we say Teofimo Lopez isn't undisputed fans are taking it as a shot against Teo and only Loma fanboys would deny Teo is the man at 135. Teo KO'd Commey then gave Loma a boxing lesson. Teofimo is THEE man at 135. He's just not undisputed.

    The fact that this is even a DISPUTE shows he's not UNDISPUTED!!

    There was never this conversation with Taylor, Lewis, Usyk, Crawford ect. As boxing fans we shouldn't accept this watered down version of an accomplishment so few have done and we regard so highly. Undisputed is our one thing in boxing that isn't an opinion.

    The WBC is to blame for this. Teofimo himself said he never asked to become franchise champion.

    Teofimo is the man at 135. Devin is the WBC lightweight champion at 135. There's nothing wrong with that.

    He’s the man but this 10 million to fight Haney is bull****. Just say you don’t want the fight.

      It doesn't work that way, not in the social media casual fan era anyway.

      Calls the shots to whom?

      Explain the logic pls.

        He beat the shot caller now he's the shot caller. When has it never worked this way in boxing?

          Teo may be the shot caller now but as soon as Garcia gets a belt the big money fights will go through him.

              Teo was offered $10 million to fight Kambosos, so he asked Hearn to match that amount.

                I don’t give a phck who wears the mantle I just want to see the fights. 135 is as loaded with talent as any division in recent memory I just hope that greed and pride don’t keep these fights from happening

                  Idk this is off subject but the Crawford an Spence fight can't happen until we get fans back into the stands or else both guys will have to take paycuts which I'm sure they don't wanna do. It's funny to me how the hardcore fans of the sport keep thinking it could happen next knowing the ****** politics of the sport an both of these guys expecting more of the split of the $ in the fight. Can't blame Crawford or Spence thinking who's A or B side I would be saying **** that guy they both think there the best an it comes down to who really wants it so whoever's willing to take less $ shows me they want it more

                    Teo is the true lightweight champ. He earned that by beating the true lightweight champ Loma. As for calling the shots he does pick his own fights now. His next fight is with a guy who lives in Australia that I never heard of and probably nobody reading this thread ever heard of.
