Teofimo kidnapped the moment of Hitchins
Some fans look at Lopez as Crafty who used the center of attention to Hitchins (20-0, 8 KO) to kidnap its moment by entering the ring for Kambosos knockout and receiving free advertising for yourself.
Richardson desperate is looking for a great fight
27-year-old Hitchins is so desperate in the fight with every significant warrior that he allowed Lopez to get the ring to the ring to take some gloss after winning over the vet, Cambosos Jr. (22-4, 10 Kos) that he used his career.
After the fight, Hitchins called Devin Haney, not Lopez. Teo should not even be allowed on the ring. Again, Richardson is so desperate that the warrior of the name fights that he simply allowed Teofimo to enter the ring from blue without him, let alone before his fight against Cambrbosos, that he wanted to face him.
“The phenomenal performance of Richardson Hitchins. Amazing performance. I think everyone must see this kind of fight with Teofimo. Let’s do it,” said Teofimo Lopez Fight Hub tvexpressing interest in the fight against the Unification Competition against Richardson Hitchins. “I want to do everything and everything. I want to make the boxing great again. Whatever fans want. I’m #1, honey.”
Incredible history of Lopez tanning
Lopez has the history of calling fighters and then does not follow. We saw it with Haney and Subriel Matias. Hitchins should have been ignored and still call Haney. However, for Hitchins it was also a waste of time, because the chances of this fight are slim without Alalshikh Turks, which will come up with money to do it.
The cake, which Haney got for his fight with Jose Ramirez in May, broke him in May. If Turki is not involved, he will not agree to $ 1 to $ 2 million to fight the Hitchins. It would be a dramatic reduction in remuneration from $ 10 million, which he had the fight against Ramirez.
“You can’t do the same with my son. He will come up with you,” said Teofimo Lopez Sr. About Richardson Hitchins after victory over George Cambosos Jr. last Saturday evening. “That’s why he went there, trying to fight Hitchins. You know, calls Devin Haney. So I don’t know. I think he [Richardson] He should take the next fight with my son. “
The movement that Hitchins uses would be a problem for Teofimo, who fights moving. Jamaine Ortiz and Sandor Martin Lopez mentally tied nodes in their fights at the age of 140. Even the movement of George Cambosos gave Teo problems.
Teo Sr. pushes the fight Hitchins
“Calls Devin Haney. I don’t know. If you want to become the king of Modern York, you must fight my son. We have a linear Is Teofimo Lopez Using Richardson Hitchins For Free Publicity? Fans Are Doubting His Intentions. This is the best. He [Hitchins] He should look for the best. Yes, that’s why he said “Modern York wants” and Modern York said, “Yes,” said Lopez Sr. Asked if Teofimo wants Hitchins.
The reason why Hitchins focuses on trying to fight Haney is that he probably considers this competition as such that has a better chance of negotiating. It is also easier for Hitchins. Devin looked like shells in his last fight with Jose Ramirez on May 2, running around the ring all night. Richardson has a better chance to combine this fight and win than it would be if Teofimo fought.
“Let’s see what will happen. This fight is not certain. Let’s find out what will happen until the next week. There are many fights that can be done. We can even go to 154. My son is walking at 154, but we can fight at 147 or 154. He is mighty, maybe a blow, and he is swift and wise. Everyone can get it. Let’s see it. He said Lope. Final message to Hitchins.
Fans believe that Teofimo is unbelievable and will change his mind about the fight against Hitchins if he fights the fight. If Hitchins is stupid enough to agree to fight, he could end up empty -handed when Lopez suddenly withdraws from negotiations, just like Devin Haney.

Undercard Results
Featherweight Masood Abdulah (14-1, 8 KOs) scored two knockdowns to defeat Adan Palma (14-2) by an eight-round unanimous decision. The judges scored it 78-72, 77-73 and 76-74.
Abdulah dropped Palma with a short left hook in the opening minute, then used his jab and compact hooks to catch him coming forward. Palma fought his way back into the contest, landing heavy right hands in the fourth round that forced Abdulah to clinch.
A well-timed check left hook sent Palma down again in the sixth, slowing his attack and giving Abdulah more room to dictate the action. Abdulah worked behind his jab and continued finding the left hook over the final two rounds to secure the victory.
Vinnie Kemp (1-0, 1 KO) stopped Liam McElhinney (0-3) with a barrage of body shots at 2:33 of the opening round in their scheduled four-round middleweight bout. Making his professional debut, Kemp charged forward from the opening bell, throwing hard punches and goading McElhinney.
The referee briefly paused the action to warn Kemp about his verbals before allowing the fight to continue. Kemp resumed his attack, stalking McElhinney and driving punches into his midsection.
McElhinney bent forward and covered up against the ropes under the sustained body attack, prompting the referee to wave it off. Kemp’s aggression gave him a quick debut victory, although McElhinney offered little to test him.

Zuffa Boxing 12 Undercard Results
Confirmed results and finishing details will be added alongside the matchups below as the bouts conclude.
Tim Tszyu seeks to become Australia’s third multi-divisional boxing world champion when he competes for Erislandy Lara’s WBA middleweight title next month, and ahead of the action, trainer Robert Garcia has offered his thoughts on the fight.
Tszyu lost his WBO super-welterweight title in a defeat to Sebastian Fundora back in 2024 and twice failed to reclaim 154lb honours, both against Bakhram Murtazaliev and in a rematch with Fundora.
Since then, the Aussie has stepped up to middleweight and scored a career-best win over Errol Spence Jr earlier this yearand now, the 32-year-old could join lead trainer Jeff Fenech and Liam Paro as his nation’s third two-weight world champion, if he can trump 43-year-old.
Speaking with ProBox TVRobert Garcia, who trains a potential future Tszyu opponent in Vergil Ortiz, admitted that he is leaning towards the home fighter, but noted that Lara will not be phased by competing in the challenger’s backyard.
“We can probably lean towards Tim Tsyzu because he is fighting at home, in front of his hometown, but Lara is not the fighter that brings in a lot of fans following him.
“He doesn’t have a following, he is not one that is going to sell out arenas, so even if it is in the United States, it is likely that most of the people are going to be [there] for Tim Tszyu because Australians do travel and Tim Tszyu has a lot of fans.
“For Lara, going to Australia is like going to Las Vegas or going to New York because he never has that following anyways. Anywhere he goes, he is going to be against the crowd. So, I think for him it is going to be one of those performances where it doesn’t make a difference if he is going to Tim Tsyzu’s hometown.”
Tszyu-Lara takes place at the Cbus Super Stadium in Queensland, Australia on Sunday 13 December.
