It was deeply satisfying and even more so because George is such a nice guy. Lopez would get slapped up by the OAPs if he ran his mouth like that over here on the mean streets of Scotland or anywhere in the UK, let alone by the young bloods.
the "only significant win" is bigger than what prograis (or postol) has ever done in his whole career and better than what caterall will do in 20 lifes. Still taylors's there, fighting him. Not to talk about the money, of course. He doesnt want to fight teo? ok, I give zero ****s as I said. But please... dont tell the fans that they are idiots, that he has better options at 140. But anyway, I dont care, if he wants to fight chocolatito, or AJ, for me that's ok too. I couldnt care less about taylor its a matter of time until he becomes irrelevant as ****.
I'm still waiting on the "why Lopez is a better option fight than any at 140". So far you have provide nothing. Other than you hate Taylor. I don't hate Taylor or Lopez. You hate Taylor so much you are throwing crap out there and not backing it up. Sure he beat Loma. But he also got his ass beat just recently and pretty embarrassing defeat at it. But someone how you glance over that. I just find it comical that someone who hasn't done **** at 140 and coming of one of the worst performance of a title defense, somehow is the best fight for the lineal championship at 140.
Hey casual.... Teo just lost dude. All Teo has to do is win a fight at 140 and he's in talks. Cut the drama, queen...
losing a fight (specially because of a bad strategy) makes him a worse fight than caterall? What kind of idiot thinks like that? Anyone looking for money or legacy would fight teo 100 times before any other guy (who taylor has not already fought) in 140. And those who refuse to see that are idiots or haters. Choose. But I repeat, I give zero ****s. I dont know even why the F I am in this thread. Maybe because I considered that taylor was insulting fans intelligence when he said that, but the truth is that I dont even give a **** about that either. Just have a nice day. Bye "hardcore".
If Lopez fights the same way he fought in his last fight his fight v Taylor wouldn`t be the best fight as he`d get his ears boxed off.
Crawford is almost on the wrong side of 30, Spence will probably move up in weight some time in the future.
No, it means he JUST LOST and can go and win a fight like everyone else to get another shot. What, you think Teo can live off a couple titles and a win for the rest of his career? Get a title shot whenever he wants in whatever division?? Get real dude...
Remember that Catterall is not only a mandatory, but it's a fight that Taylor is contractually obliged to honour after paying Catteral step-aside money to let the Ramirez unification take place. I'm pretty certain Josh has no real desire to fight Catteral and would rather be moving straight up, but I'd think far less of him if he didn't honour it. Catterall could easily have torpedo'd the Ramirez fight for Taylor.
It will be great to have an elite fighter who is not afraid to fight anyone at the weight. I like his chances but even if he’s not successful he will give any of the top guys a tough fight. He will bring some excitement to 147 when he gets there.
I have nothing against taylor moving up and not fighting teo, **** teo, he's an *******. Actually I think that it is the way to go, 140 is utter trash right now. This is different from not fighting teo to fight other guys in 140, for me that makes no sense.
Keep him away from the elite or he will get destroyed. Conor Benn or Amir Khan would work well for him.
