Teofimo Lopez took to social media today to complain about Top Rank, saying he “Too expensive” Defend them and blame Chairman Todd DeBouffe.
Lopez claimed that Dubov stopped “liking” him and his father since 2018, which is why he didn’t get the big fights he wanted. Fans believe this is more a case of poor performance from Teofimo (21 wins, 1 loss, 13 KOs).
He lost to George Kambosos Jr., who has struggled in many matches since moving up to 140 in 2022. His rants on social media became increasingly outlandish, talking about this and that.
Teofimo says he wants his “Buyout number.” This is something he has already requested in his recent X post.
past performance
Lopez, 27, the WBO light welterweight champion, hopes to fight Devin Haney, Terrence Crawford, Gervonta Davis, Ryan Garcia and Jalen “Butz” · Ennis plays. However, these battles have so far been elusive. He wasn’t popular enough to win these awards, and his many lackluster performances over the past four years contributed to that.
Lopez looked like 24k gold during the first four years of his career (2016 to 2020), but since 2021 he has been unable to reach the same level. Fans are well aware that Teofimo has been fool’s gold from the beginning, and he’s never been anything like 24k gold. Just as the public thought.
His narrow victory over an injured, one-armed, older and much smaller Vasily Lomachenko was a watershed moment in Theo’s career. It’s all been downhill since he fought these guys:
— Steve Cratchit
——Jermain Ortiz
—Josh Taylor
– Sandor Martin
——Pedro Campa
——George Kambosos, Jr.
Always maintain Top Rank Teofimo’s head is above the waterline How well they matched up with him the past four years. If they let him fight some of the killers he keeps complaining about, he would lose so many times that he would be of no use to them. He almost was, anyway. Teofimo’s comments outside the ring have made him difficult to like, with some fans questioning his sanity.
Don’t like history?
I’m too expensive for TopRank, but the fact is that Todd DeBouf is the problem here. He has not liked me or my father since I started THE TAKEOVER EST. 2018 or before. Now he’s the chairman of TopRank, so people do the math. According to the law, I have freedom of speech🔺👁️ #boxing
