    You mean Triller?
    I think that they will not sue Lopez because now they does knows that they offered too high purse for them, Lopez currently most likely will not generate enough money.
    Therefore they maybe might be happy if this fight will not happen.
    No fight, no expenses for Lopez purse.

    If Lopez drops the belt then it is a duck. Be consistent @lufcrazy

    I am consistent. Lopez is the Champion of the division. Loma doesn't dictate to him. Kamboso doesn't dictate to him.

    No one does.

    He's the undisputed champion.

    Haney, Tank, Loma, Kamboso, they all have to dance to his tune, a tune he's earnt the right to play.

    They should be bending over backwards in the negotiations to secure a shot at his title, not the other way round.

    He holds the IBF belt. If he wishes to keep it then he follows the regulations.
    Dropping it is ducking.

    When it’s all said and done it’s about the millions.So he has the belts. What now? He still can’t make the big PPV with just his name.

    If Kamboso was an outstanding challenger, was someone considered likely to beat Lopez, was someone doing everything he could to get the fight, I'd agree with you then.

    But in this situation, nah.

    Dishonest people like you also accused him of "ducking" Salido in the rematch.

    @lufcrazy Your thoughts about Kambosos don't matter, only the regulations do.

    Kambosos was in Lopez's head he had him rattled badly and Lopez is desperate for a way out of the fight. He had no idea what to do when Kambosos stood up to him and made him look like a fool at the press conference.

    Salido also priced himself out. The entire "ducking" argument is nonsense be it Salido or Lopez.

    Loma is the one who wanted two mill and only wanted to give Salido 500,000 to the man who took that 0

    My thoughts are the only thing that matter since I was asked what I think.
