    Teofimo would absolutely obliterate Haney IMO. Just on a much higher level.
    I can’t see that happening. Maybe he dies, but I don’t see Haney giving away first 6 rounds by not throwing a punch.

        Haney beats Lopez stylistically IMO.

          Teo is worth more than the pennies they’re offering him you don’t like it the fucck off.
          To who? He clearly isn't worth more to his own promoter, another promoter has offered him 4. So it's all good and well saying he is worth more but who is offering him more?

            I just think Teofimo dominates and stops him. I think he’s better in nearly every department, I can’t see Haney outboxing him or having the pop to make Lopez respect him.

            I’m skeptical Haney is even anywhere ready for a guy like Teofimo. I could see it playing out like Lopez vs Commey.

              This.

              Teo can't even accept a fight without Bob signing off on it. Idk why mfers so confused about how boxing works in 2021. If you got a promoter you aren't calling your shots like some mfers seem to think.

              That said I'm bored with all these 135lb guys as of late with all this bs talk of fighting each other.

                Yeah, Haney needs to fight Fortuna and Linares. Do something interesting and stop begging. It looks bad.

                Teo can stfu. Good fighter, just talks too much. He's getting peanuts compared to Bob's main guys. He might as well move up to 140 already.

                  Teo is gonna talk. Teo has taken a certain road with his career & talking is a part of it. He's not going to change it up nor should he.

                  But yea he's in a sh^tty spot. It's unlikely Bob can &/or will wanna make the big fights at 135 any time soon & the only fight worth a damn at 140 is the Taylor vs JCR winner.

                  That said he's like 23 & I believe is making $1M+ per fight already so it's not reallllllllly an awful spot. Everyone making more than him at TR wishes they were making $1M+ per fight at 23.

                    I agree that Haney needs to fight someone first (though the Loma haters weren't singing that tune when he was calling out Loma). On the other hand, if Teo thinks so little of Haney and that he would be easy work, why not take the easy money?

                    Two strikes me as a guy who is going to price himself out of some good fights. After one loss his stock will drop and he'll be begging for a $4M fight.

                      Fighters should talk shit. Teo just hasn't been making sense to me lately.
