Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez Wants 'Nine-Figure' Contract to Continue Fighting, Will Consider Retirement

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Teofimo Lopez Jr. is apparently thinking about taking a hiatus from boxing. Shortly after defeating Scotland's Josh Taylor by unanimous decision Saturday night at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City to become the WBO 140-pound titlist, Lopez told ringside reporters that he needs "to take a

Teofury Lopez, attention seeking at it's finest lol.

That's at least a 100,000,000.00, dollar Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez type of contract. This guy's megalomania, and delusions of grandeur know no boundaries.
Please by all means retire, you're greed doesn't meet you're skills, class, or achievements in this sport of boxing.
No promoter in their right mind will offer you anywhere near that kind of money, not even for a multiple fight contract.

Don't know if it's just posturing or if Teo is actually delusional. Unfortunately with Teo you never know. All the talent, none of the brain.

Someone tell Teofimo that money is finite?

This guy, lol.

He is just unstable. That is how it is. And he knows he most likely loses his next fight.

This guy has all the talent, but he has no brain and he is just delusional attention whore.

A shame, he could be one of the best in this era, but he will never fulfil his potential.

Teo, you had one of your best ring performances in years. So please don’t disgrace yourself now.

You beat the worst version of Taylor I've ever seen and a one armed Loma and feel you're the greatest, would be going out on top and worth 100m+? LOL.

Not only that you have a "good" night against top opposition that are under-performing, then lose to mediocre opposition like Kambosos and arguably Martin definitely not worth the financial risk.

9 Figures?

Maybe his math is off and he means 8 Figures which is $10 Million and up but even that is a stretch I don't know who the hell he makes that with other than maybe Tank Davis. He is NEVER getting that from Arum though I can guarantee that

[-Kev-]

This is the exact way he acted after beating Lomachenko. Demanding $5 million minimum for any fight.

He needs to be able to generate the money he’s asking for. When he wins, he’s just out of control. When he loses, he becomes emo. He’s manic.
