Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez: Love ESPN and Top Rank, But If We Can't Meet Terms I'm Taking My Talents Elsewhere

This guy might have a bigger ego than Floyd Mayweather.

Is that even possible?

[factsarenice]

The game within the game

The REAL question is, which, promoter, manager, network is willing to take the biggest loss?

They all know Teo vs Koala George isn't competitive and can't be promoted into profitability.

This should be interesting.

Yup!

I bought in 2020

Spence/Garcia
Davis/Santa Cruz
Charlo/Sergiy
Wilder/Fury

Ones I wouldn't even touch and still haven't seen

Tyson/Jones
Mayweather/McGreggor
Canelo/JCC Jr.
Canelo/Smith (Except body highlight)

LOL You wish that PBC was dying. They have the smartest business model out there. Remember it was PBC who first brought boxing back to regular TV. Guess who copied that model by going to ESPN....that's right TOP Rank. Top Rank is only with ESPN because HBO went by the wayside. You never hear PBC fighters complaining about money. LOL

You guys need to educate yourself about how the boxing game works. People get mad at PBC why because they fight the fights with the fighters under the PBC banner when TOP Rank does the EXACT same thing only worse. A PBC fighter just fought a Golden Boy fighter last night. Castano vs Texierra - PBC won of course. Stop knocking people because they're smart with the business side.

PLEASE NAME ME ONE PBC FIGHTER COMPLAINING ABOUT MONEY???? I CAN NAME SEVERAL FROM TOP RANK

DON'T HATE THE FIGHTERS HATE THE GAME.

Someone need to not let Teo do any interviews and filter his media interactions for him...

DAZN has 2.5mil followers worldwide. Back in early 2019 they only had 240k subs globally (including USA). Their retention for boxing is significantly stronger than the rest. But this was always said 2+ years ago.

[tokon]

What happens if noone offers "minimum bid", or Lopez/Kambosos won't fight for whatever their cut of the winning bid is?

Top rank should make a trade Lopez and Crawford for Ryan Garcia the Garcia keep is a future draw

[meXFISTologYy]

Teofimo leave that greedy tree promoter Bob Arum, you need uncle Al Haymon

[NCBoxingPro]

Money no longer grows on trees at DAZN if you have noticed.
Your best bet is signing with Showtime/Fox/PBC/Haymon.
They're willing to overpay fighters over there.
Ask Wilder or Ortiz. Even Breazeale benefited.
Go get your money, Teo!

Those are strait facts!! Top Rank is hurting financially. People never here the PBC guys complaining about money
