Teo and Matias in talks for June 7/8 unification bout on Puerto Rican Parade Day

Teo has tons of scar tissue on his nose, he gets open up and bleeds too easy. Terrible body language after he takes a shot. Once Lopez shows he's hurt, the fight will be quickly over in a very slow and brutal fashion. Matias capitalizes off his opponents lack of will after they get hit. No one wants to fight Matias for 12 rounds lets be real. Teo WILL be hit. Kambosos has pillow fist and dropped Lopez fairly easy. Martin was on that ass too. Lopez struggles against guys who have accurate punches, don't swing wild and are active. Matias connects at a 39% clip. Matias style is all wrong for Lopez, Matias throws punches without loading up and are much harder to time. Lopez can clearly improve from his Martin/Kambosos preformance but I people too high off of the Josh Taylor win, where Teofimo still looked bloodied and bruised. I'm mentioning the bloodied and bruised part because what happens if Lopez is in that scenario against Matias? The thing with Matias is, if you're getting hit, your corner will automatically be prepared to throw in the towel. Matias last 5 opponents were 103-0 and they all got stopped in the corner. Unlike Teo, Matias avenged his only loss in a fight most fans had Matias winning. Lopez isn't going 12 rounds with Matias without taking punishment. That's just reality. The factor of the fight is if Lopez has the will to go all 12. Matias has Plasterito type power ( I even questioned if Matias hands are tampered) and I learned they aren't. Matias has naturaly big hands and he doesn't need to load up to throw punches that can stun/hurt you. Lopez looks best version guys who don't cut off the ring, don't have a jab and guys who swing wild. Matias has a jab, exceptionally good at cutting off the ring and manipulating distance. Matias makes Lopez says no mas in 6. This forum has been betting against Matias since Dadashev and Matias has made a career of being the B side and making the A side not want to fight anymore. I promise this forum entirely that Matias not only beats Lopez, but make him retire from the sport.

Good fight. Props to both for pursuing it, but not until June..,..?

 

Gotta respect Teo for continuing to go after the best guys. Matias is no pushover and is a serious threat but Teo's a special talent when he's at his best. He needs to maintain his momentum and keep the same focus that he had against Loma and Taylor if he wants to beat Matias clearly. Otherwise there's a chance that Matias can break him physically and mentally.
