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

Ain't he signed with them for a few more years?

If so it doesn't seem like he's going anywhere.

The whole scenario is weird to me..

That's baby boomer mentality and he's generation X

Nah, gen X’ers are in their late 40s and 50s now, and where the children of the baby boomers born in the 1940s and 1950s

Yea I meant generation Z.

Arum is very careful who he wants to push as a star, he wanted loma to be a star even though loma himself never really became a PPV level star. To be fair to Bob, it does take more than one fight to become the level of start Teo wants to be. However, every fighter should strive to be his own promoter and deal directly with the locations of the fight, get percentage of the gates, Merch, food/beverage sales, etc etc. This “I must sign away my money to a promoter” mentality needs to go. Boxers are the names and the money makers, not the promoters. The guys at pbc and now Canelo have the right idea. That way they can fight on any network and float to what’s best for them rather than lining the pockets of guys like Edward, Arum, and DeLaHoya

Not sure how long you have been on boxingscene but a lot of posters on here hate pbc because pbc wouldn’t sell out to Eddie Hearn and dayzin. There is a real race driven hatred for al Haymon

You purple slurpers started it. Before Eddie Hearn you just cried Oscar, and before Oscar you guys cried Arum. Typical LDBC boxing fans crying racism and blaming others. So before PBC you guys didn’t even mention Al Haymon. Canelo is the HNIC! You guys troll that Canelo is a “bruvva, Irish, not a real Mexican.” Only crack sellers and BET kids think this way. That’s why the status quo exist that you’ll live salty for the rest of your lives! And that’s all she wrote!

Bidding is not only limited to you current promoter/network. I could see Hearn offer $6-8 mil bid to bring the fight to DAZN, in which case, teo would make triple whats being offered now.

I know that. If TR doesn’t chase it, why would others pay up? They wouldn’t need to. Depending on how much time has left on his TR contract, I can’t see DAZN throwing that much $ at a fight that doesn’t bring much intrigue with an unknown opponent for Teo.

Let me just say something here because I think you may have some lingering medical issues here....you’re spending too much time on YouTube. This “ldbc” you talk about as I understand it is a social media/YouTube that thing. I don’t have ANY social media accounts. I’m in my late 50s, British ***, and I could care less what happens on YouTube. It has nothing to do with my retirement, land holdings, options, savings accounts, or business.
My advice to you would be to get some medication....aderol, adavan, risperdol, abilify, etc etc. You’re showing signs of paranoia, delusions, and in possible psychosis. Get some help lad.

you're still mad about canelo being a bruvva? lol. just accept it mayne. canelo is not even embraced in mexico. i wonder why... they know he's not one of theirs. a real mexican fights like brandon rios. canelo is a slick bruvva

[rickJen]

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

Come to the PBC, you'll get good paydays.

Exactly! Haymon will use his own money as investment.
He did so in the Wilder/Breazeale fight!

That's what I figured. I appreciate the confirmation.
