Fans see a mismatch
Lopez (22-1, 13 KO) seems to worry about the criticism of the potential fight she receives from fans who perceive her as a mismatch and a straightforward breaking of money.
Thanks to the huge advantage of Ennis, this is a fight with a little chance of competition. People would prefer that the shoes move to 154, and then go to Vergil Ortiz Jr., Sebastian Fundora or Bakhram Murtazaliev.
Promoter Matchroom Eddie Hearn favors the fight against Teofimo, perceiving her as a “win”. He says that they did not receive any offers from Turk Alalshikh for the fight, but “he talks about it.” However, Hearn says that if Ennis has problems accepting weight for the division of 147 pounds, then “He can move to 154.“
Hearn realizes that Ennis will take too long to achieve his goal, which is the undisputed champion. The money that Hearn will have to offer WBO, Brian Norman Jr., there will probably be more than he wants to pay. And even if he fights with it, the WBC Master Mario Barrios agreed to fight the shoes, it may be almost impossible.
Will Ennis wait until Barrios finally agrees to fight him? I doubt. Mario fights Many Pacquiao on July 19. Then wait for the popular fighters of Conor Benn, Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney to look at him. The WBC belt is a Barrios fish lure that lures these fighters. He wouldn’t give him to his shoes for $ 2 million when he can make a significant movement of the fight with these guys.
No Turki offers
“There are really no offers, but we’re talking about it,” said Eddie Hearn promoter Seconds Asked if he received any offers from Turk Alalshikh for a fight between Jaron “Boots” Ennis and Teofimo Lopez. “I just think that it is a coincidence with shoes, whether it stays at the age of 147. He really just wants to stay to fight for more lanes.”
Hearn wants to fight in Lopez, but it is doubtful if Ennis will agree. He knows that this is just a fight for money and it would be similar to his two fights with Karen Chukhadzhian. Teofimo is a runner while fighting a good opposition and will not try to exchange Ennis.
“So Teofimo’s fight was not really an option, but we like it because I think it is a fight he wins. I think it’s a deafening fight, and if the money is good, I suggest that he accepts it. But if he doesn’t feel that he can do the best at 147, he can go to 154,” said Hearn.
