Both mid but this should be an exciting fight

lol. Teo is not mid!!!!

Dude was a two time unified champ and did what many are scared to do, chase greatness.

He is easily one of the most talented fighters walking the planet, but he is brutally loyal to his drunk father which is a horrible coach. And then decides to bring in Milton Supreme to run his camp for a fight vs the best defensive fighter on earth in Shakur. It doesn’t matter how talented you are when your coaches are that….

But Teo is a monster of a talent. It’s very sad to see a father destroy what could have been
 
Rolly on the other hand is very mid from a talent perspective, but he hits hard and has a very high boxing IQ.

I’ve sat with him and talked boxing several times. He’s a nice kid and is smart enough to know his limitations and how to exploit others. Ryan is 10x the boxer he is, but Rolly understood Ryan’s weaknesses and how to exploit them

He has accolades but he has a very mid skill set. Heavily reliant on his athleticism and power, his power isn’t the same as it was at 135 so now he’s super limited

The most talented fighters don’t lose to Kambosos, and he arguably lost to Jermaine ortiz and Sando Martin before shakur so this isn’t my reaction post that fight. If he is in there with anyone who is an above average boxer and mover he will struggle, if they’re stationary then he will look good

And I don’t even place most of the blame on him now, his dad is probably the worst trainer in the sport. So teo making it this far being this limited with basically no corner is a great feat

that's a fair opinion to take. As for the Kombosos fight, it was delayed do to covid the first time and then should have never taken place the second time because Teo had a serious health issue but still chose to fight. He lost to his ego that night.

www.espn.com

Doctor says Teofimo Lopez is 'lucky he's not dead' after boxer found to have fought with air in chest

Teofimo Lopez is "lucky he's not dead," according to one doctor, and he fought George Kambosos "like his neck and chest were in a vise," according to another doctor.
www.espn.com www.espn.com

I just have bit of insight on him because a good friend of mine trained Teo for 3 of his pro fights and my friend has trained 5 Olympic gold medalists and 8 former world champs. He told me Teo is quite possibly the best talent he's ever worked with, but his camp habits are bad. When he's in the gym he works like a savage, but doesn't train consistently on the technical cornerstones of the game and doesn't spend enough time in the gym.

His parents are also a huge distraction, the dad is a mess and the mom is even worse as she gets jealous of other trainers when they start building Teo. Its as if she doesn't want someone else to bring out the best in him because it will take attention away from the dad.

Should get with Robert Garcia for the rest of his career
 
R.I.P.

Diego

Will remember this fight till I die.

Was in highschool when this come back took place.

My father got me out of bed said "son, you better watch this fight.might be one of the best you'll ever see".
 
So beterbiev vs bivol 3 looking real iffy for this yr.

Being reported the IBA prez made a few offers to bivol in which he declined.

Imo beterbiev won the first fight and bivol got the victory second time around. The first fight Beterbiev had bivol evading him the whole night, beterbiev was landing more of the significant shots, and dominated the championship rounds. Sure, bivol "landed " more ,but how many were blocked by beterbiev's glove.. Artur controlled the champion ship rounds and when he hit bivol, bivol was on his horse.

The second fight- bivol def got the W..

I still beileve this trilogy will be made but artur still seems hungry.
 
Errol vs tim.

Got errol spence for the W. Time eye looks like it took alot of damage in sparring that errol can exploit. Possible TKO . The undercards lil lackluster.

Spence is completely done as a top tier fighter.

That car accident really changed his entire career trajectory.

100%. That car crash did him like Chavez did Meldrick in the 12th, even his speech was significantly slower after the car crash. He doesn't even look balanced while shadowboxing.

This is also a big reason why Crawford's legacy is way overblown. The best win on his resume is this Spence, because Canelo was also a shell of his former self, plus being overrated.
