Teofimo Lopez became a three-division world champion as he dethroned Rolando Romero to capture the WBA welterweight title last week, but fellow welterweight world champion Ryan Garcia has admitted that he disagrees with the result of the fight.

Lopez boxed on the front foot and appeared to dominate the majority of the proceedings at T-Mobile Arena on Saturday. The judges ultimately awarded ‘The Takeover’ a majority-decision victory, although most felt he had done enough to win by a wider margin. The victory sets up a host of blockbuster fights for Lopez.

One of those potential dust-up’s is a unification against WBC welterweight ruler, Garcia, who Lopez has openly revealed is the targeted opponent for his next outing.

Speaking with FightHypeGarcia analysed Lopez’s display against Romero and declared that he believes a draw would have been the correct outcome.

“He did [hurt Teofimo]. We were watching it, it was pretty good, none of them really made it clear [who won]for me, [in terms of] like domination.

“I told my Dad, if you are going to give it to anybody you have got to give it to Teo for pushing the action, but in my honest opinion it felt like a draw, just from a boxers perspective.

“Nobody really put their dominance on it, then all of these people that think they know about boxing, but they don’t know s**t, are saying ‘Teo won so easily,’ – no, the f**k he didn’t.

“He [Teo] didn’t even touch him, really. Rolly’s face was clean, Teofimo looked like he got jumped and s**t.”

Before Garcia-Lopez can be made, Garcia must first defend his WBC crown against Conor Benn in an intriguing clash in two weeks’ time.

The location of Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua’s much-reported showdown continues to cause a stir in the world of boxing, and heavyweight icon Mike Tyson has shared his thoughts on where the clash should take place.

After both Fury and ‘AJ’ won in their ‘warm-ups’ last month, an announcement was expected almost immediately, but it seems as though talks have stalled, with Eddie Hearn and Joshua insisting that the event goes ahead in the United Kingdom.

However, Netflix and Sela are pushing for the fight to happen in the US, maintaining that it makes more business sense for the card to take place stateside.

Speaking to The Daily Mail‘Iron Mike’ stated that, even though he would not be permitted to attend, he believes that Fury-Joshua should happen in London, because the English fans will be the ones to sell it out – as they did in his two meetings with Frank Bruno in the 1990’s.

“It’s going to be a great fight, it’s going to be great for boxing. Even though I can’t go – I’m barred from London – I think London should get the fight.”

“They’re both English and if they come here, all the English people are going to come anyway. So you’re home already, let’s do it there!’

“Everybody that [wants] to be there, they’re going to come into the United States – it’s going to be full of English people. It’s going to be just like it is over there.

“There ain’t going to be many Americans there because they’ll sell it out. All the English – very few Americans – sold it out when I [twice] fought Frank Bruno.”

The once ‘Baddest Man on the Planet’ then went on to deny suggestions that both men have severely declined of late, believing that the desire they each have for this contest will bring the best out of both Joshua and Fury.

“It’s going to be a great fight, it’s going to be great for boxing. And I think they both still have enough in them once they get the desire,

“People think they lose because they can’t fight. They lose because they lose their desire. I’m sure [Joshua] would get back up for this fight.

“He’s had exciting fights, the guy [Kristian Prenga] dropped him, he got back up and he clocked the guy. That was very exciting.”

It is believed that Friday, November 20, is the targeted date for the event.

Teofimo Lopez bounced back from defeat to Shakur Stevenson to capture a welterweight world title last weekend, and now Lopez has predicted how Stevenson would fare against his newfound welterweight rival and fellow 147lb champion, Devin Haney.

Lopez was comprehensively outboxed by Stevenson at Madison Square Garden back in Januarylosing almost every round as well as his WBO super-lightweight world title; a defeat which prompted a move up to the welterweight division.

‘The Takeover’ had been linked to a showdown with WBO welterweight champion Haney, but instead wound up facing WBA titleholder Rolando Romero in Las Vegas at the weekend and claimed a majority-decision win to become a three-division world champion.

Now, Lopez is eyeing up unifications with his fellow titlists at the weightwith potential showdowns against either Haney or WBC champion Ryan Garcia, sure to be huge spectacles.

Despite being beaten by Stevenson at the beginning of the calendar, Lopez told Daily Mail Boxing that he believes Haney would defeat the Newark southpaw.

“I think Devin Haney [wins].”

It is unclear whether Lopez is currently mandated to face WBA (Regular) champion Jack Catterall, with the WBA’s recent order for a fight between Catterall and Romero now being scrutinised.

Meanwhile, Garcia is set to take on Conor Benn on Saturday, September 12, whilst it is believed that Haney is targeting an October unification clash with IBF champion Liam Paro, but that negotiations for that proposed bout have stalled.
