Dmitriy Kel Feb. 9, 2024, 3:44 a.m.

WBO world champion in junior welterweight Teofimo Lopez summed up the results of his fight with Jamayne Ortiz.

Today, February 9, Lopez beat Ortiz on points in an extremely boring fight to retain his title. The fight took place at the Top Rank evening in Las Vegas, USA.

“We cannot influence fighters who don’t want to fight. You go into battle, ready to shed blood, sweat and tears. There are three codes of conduct and a Sugar Ray Robinson Award. If you are not ready for this, then get out of my sport. I am a champion.

I tried my best to do my best for you. I even tried to box on my back foot, to go forward, but Ortiz didn’t want to fight. Anyone who wants to get in the ring with me, let's do it. I am a champion and a king. The king remains the king,” Lopez said after the fight.
