Teofimo Lopez says he can’t wait to become “the next face of Latinos” when Canelo Alvarez withdraws from boxing. Lopez (21-1, 13 Kos) believes that he has talent to take over with Canelo as a “face” when he leaves sport.
Canelo is expected to continue fighting for the next three years, but he was on the half-pension. Teofimo can take over the face of Latinos, because Alvarez plays it safely, avoiding sharks in 168 and 175.
Legacy Latynoskie
Teo is ready to take risks and give the fand the fight they want to see. In this way you become the face of boxing. Gervonta Davis and Canelo dropped the ball in this respect.
Teofimo, the WBO Lightweight Welter Master will have to raise his game to become another star with Latinos. He looked marginal in four out of five fights at the age of 140 and was lucky that he did not have two additional failures.
Lopez defends his WBO belt against his mandatory Arnold Barboza Jr. (32-0, 11 KO) in the fight against throwing on May 2 at the Times Square in Fresh York. Many boxing fans choose Barboza Jr. to win this fight because he now has a heated hand, beating Jose Ramirez and Jacek Catterall in the last two fights.
If Teofimo wins this fight, he could challenge the IBF Jaron Jaron Master “Boots” Ennis in October. This is a fight that could seal Teo to the highest place if he defeats Ennis.
“Place me as a weaker because of a business position, I’m weaker when it comes to rates and everything, no, I’m not,” said Teofimo Lopez to Shawn Porter YouTube Channel, telling about his fight with Arnold Barboza Jr. May 2.
Lopez is one of those types that achieve better results when it is skipped in combat. He is not a good leader when he is to cope well, as we saw in his fights with Jamaine Ortiz, Sandor Martin and George Cambosos Jr.
“Next Face”
“I feel that I am the next face for Latinos after Canelo Alvarez, although Canelo’s Mexicans are for Mexicans, I am sorry to say that God chose me. When Canelo does not finish, I will be the face of Latinos. It will be perfect because I speak more English, but then we will start recording a little more in my Spanish language barrier.
“I dream of a great one. I deserved it and deserved it and received it. In addition, the point is to stick to it. It is much easier to gain and go to these things than holding them.
