    If that's the case then I can't be mad at Teo.

    I think an ideal response to Hearn and Haney would be

    "Let me go make this Australia money and then we can talk about me taking your email title"

    That shouldn't be a problem since Teo believes that Haney isn't on his level anyway. If that's the case then why not make 10 million plus "easy money" for Haney if it's really an easy fight.

    What does Lopez gain from fighting Haney you might ask? I think he gains separation from the rest of the young guns at 135 by beating a guy that many view as avoided. Just like Canelo elevated his standing by facing Erislandy Lara.

      That's your opinion and all but when your opinion doesn't fit the facts you need to seek help. You're not living in reality

        Teo is as undisputed as Dempsey, Tunney, and Schemling were as Undisputed HW champions. Sharkey is the first man to gather the three official major world body belts. No one cared about the IBU but it was official.

        What you're asking me to do is give more ****s about the lesser belt than I do the major. Is the Franchise above the WBC belt? Then stfu, it's the major.

        You do not need all the official belts to be undisputed, you need the major belts. No one gives a **** about Charr, he's an official champion.

        No one claims Walcott, Marciano, Patterson, or Johansson were not undisputed. None of them had the official IBU belt.

        So, no, his ass is undisputed. He has all the top belts from all the top orgs. Stop being nitpicky ****heads.
