    I'm just glad his dad has a muzzle on right now.

    Probably his most normal post fight speech.

    He's barely a 140 lb'er......

    Yep it’s a narrative for Teo fans to use he beat a much smaller injured Loma only just and Taylor was shot and dead at the weight coming off what should’ve been a loss to Catterall in the first fight.

    I like Claggett, he's a solid gatekeeper for young up and coming fighters. He has solid if limited skills, reasonable power and a great chin. I just think that someone whos marketing himself as world class should walk through him and KO him without too much of a struggle

    Claggett is sort of like a more durable Juan Diaz

    Sure... I have no problem with anyone using anything at their disposable to throw off on that clown. But some gatekeepers are damned near impossible to KO.

    You are probably right, he does have a great chin. Im just disillusioned on Lopez. I just dont see the hype thats given to him coming anywhere close to his actual ability. Bah humbug said the grumpy old man

    I agree wholeheartedly, Lopez should have 3 losses and 2 draws on his ledger.

    It’s usually hard to KO those teak tough journeyman that fight to survive but Claggett was on top of him the whole fight. Teo is just very limited.

    Right, I'm personally not a fan of Lopez and I don't think that highly of him. Is he a good fighter? yeah, but as you say I don't buy into his hype.

    Teofimo Lopez says that belts matter, but he's trying to jump out the division to fight someone who isn't a welterweight anymore, so how would he get a belt.

    These commentators irritated me.

    Claiming he automatically would beat all the champions at 140.......Seriously..... I think he loses to Isaac Cruz and Alberto Puello is going to be a huge issue as well. His best bet is to go after Liam Paro's title, but even I don't see that as a for sure thing.

    Anyone who lost to Kambosos and was dropped by him as well, should not be mentioned as a for sure winner over any of the 140 lb champs.

    Considering he should have lost to both Ortiz and Martin, who fought as slick southpaws, Paro is a stylistic nightmare for him.

    With fair judges Paro handles him and wins a 117-111 / 116-112 type decision.
