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.

Prince Naseem Hamed’s biopic “Giant” hits the United States on May 22

Published

May 23, 2026

By

a biopic chronicling the career of former featherweight champion Prince Naseem Hamed will be released in select U.S. theaters and on VOD on May 22. The film stars Amir El-Masry as Hamed and Pierce Brosnan as his longtime trainer Brendan Ingle, with Sylvester Stallone among the executive producers.

Directed and written by Rowan Athale, it premiered at the BFI London Film Festival in October 2025 and was released in the UK and Ireland on January 9, 2026, before arriving in the Middle East via the Red Sea Film Festival. Vertical holds U.S. distribution rights, and the film was financed by AGC Studios and BondIt Media Capital.

What the movie covers

The plot follows Hamed’s rise from Sheffield, England, to a world title under Ingle, an Irish-born steelworker who ran a boxing gym in a church hall. According to the official description, the film also addresses the racism and Islamophobia that Hamed faced in the UK in the 1980s and 1990s, and also focuses on his relationship with Ingle, who died in 2018.

Collider published an exclusive clip from the film on May 21 featuring Hamed’s 1994 fight against Vincenzo Belcastro. In this fight, Hamed won the European bantamweight title in 12 rounds, which was only his 12th professional contest, which was the beginning of his later career.

The warrior behind the film

Hamed, a southpaw of Yemeni heritage, finished his professional career with a 36-1 record and 31 knockouts while holding featherweight titles in multiple sanctioning bodies throughout the 1990s. Now 51, he was known for his unconventional style, pre-fight showmanship and ring walks that often ended with a fall over the top rope. In 2015, he was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame.

Following Ingle’s death, Hamed directly attributed his success to his coach Ring that without him he wouldn’t have achieved what he did in sports.

The supporting cast included Toby Stephens as promoter Frank Warren and Katherine Dow Blyton as Alma Ingle. The film lasts 110 minutes.

Image: Rico Verhoeven Reacts To Usyk Loss: “I’m Here To Stay”

Rico Verhoeven insists he has proven he belongs in boxing despite an 11th-round loss to Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night in Egypt.

The former kickboxing champion pushed Usyk much harder than many expected before the referee stepped in tardy in the fight. At the time of the stoppage, two judges had the fight even at 95-95, with the third having Verhoeven ahead 96-94.


“Yeah, it sucks. I felt like I was so close to shocking the world,” Rico Verhoeven told DAZN Boxing after the fight.

“I want to stay here. I think I showed the world that I can definitely box. Even as a kickboxer they told me, ‘Who is this guy? He can’t do anything. It’ll be four or five rounds,’ but I think after four or five rounds we were pretty even in terms of results.”

“So I think it was a crazy, crazy performance. I felt like I was so close to winning, but it is what it is.”

Verhoeven entered the fight as the main underdog against the undefeated unified heavyweight champion, but his physical pressure, size and willingness to trade caused Usyk to struggle during several early and middle rounds.

The performance immediately changed the discussion about Verhoeven’s future in boxing.

Rather than treat the fight as a one-off, the Dutch heavyweight later made it clear that he planned to continue boxing despite the defeat. His comments also reflected the fierceness of the fight before Usyk finally took control in the championship rounds and forced a stoppage.

For much of the fight, Verhoeven looked much more comfortable than many expected against one of boxing’s greatest champions.

Rico Verhoeven speaks out on referee stopping Usyk fight with one second left in the round

Rico Verhoeven commented on the controversial break in the match after the defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.

Verhoeven challenged heavyweight king Usyk at the Giza Pyramids in Egypt, and despite most expecting a huge mismatch before the fight, the Dutchman came within a whisker of arguably the biggest upset in boxing history.

The kickboxing legend did enough to win multiple rounds heading into the final stages, with the underdog Usyk struggling to cope with his unconventional opponent.

Usyk finally found the shot he needed when he dropped his opponent at the end of the 11th round, and although Verhoeven managed to get up, the Ukrainian attacked again. led to referee Mark Lyson stopping the fight. Many fans – as well as Verhoevens’ team – were outraged by this decision.

After the fight, Verhoeven shared his thoughts on Lyson, who waved it off, saying he felt he deserved to fight longer.

“I thought it was an early break. It’s not up to me. I believe the referee knows we’re almost at the end of the round, whether he lets me go to the target or let the bell ring… it was close and I thought we were equal on the scorecards.”

Vehoeven was humble at the time when asked if he deserved a rematch.

“It’s not up to me, it’s up to the organization, let’s see what happens.”

It is unknown whether the second fight will actually take place, as the WBC has already ordered Usyk to face mandatory challenger Agit Kabayel next, under threat of being stripped of his belt.
