    Teofimo’s been on a Twitter tirade lately and expressing his issue with Top Rank. Do you think he’s right to feel this way or is he being an entitled delusional pr1ck as usual?

    I like Lopez but Teo doesn't know what he wants. His life is always a whirlwind of stress, problems and drama. If he wasn't unhappy about Top Rank he would find something else to be upset about.

    The fool is way overrating himself. He isn't as big as he thinks he is. What is stupid is not fighting while he waits for the contract end date. He could get a million or so for his next fight. That is still better than zero money till July 26.

    Everyone (except Tim Bradley and I have thoughts why) eventually wants out of their Top Rank contract and flees from that outfit................common denominator is always Top Rank.

    Teo seems like a nightmare to work with, Hearn will undoubtedly sign him.

    Top Rank has a history of this; they get a fighter to a certain level and then they stall their career or cannot renegotiate fairly.

    Oscar, Floydd, Shakur, Berlanga and so on; now Teo, who is actually a very marketable fighter.

    Who would y'all like to see Teo fight next, I would have liked to have seen him in with Catterall being from the UK and all.

    Teo/Garcia would be a big fight in terms of views/sales.
