Lopez: Tired of hearing everyone call me the guy who beat Lomachenko

Former undisputed world lightweight champion Teofimo Lopez stated that he did not want to be associated only with the victory over Vasily Lomachenko.

“I’m tired of hearing everyone call me the guy who beat Lomachenko. No, I am the guy who defeated all the fighters with whom I was not given a chance. I will fight every champion - I came here for this.

We have other fighters who are great talents, but who are they fighting? They make it look like they're fighting world-class champions. They learn from Floyd "Money" Mayweather's textbook, but they don't do what "Handsome" Mayweather did, what he had to do to take his place.

Of course, the fight with Josh Taylor motivates me. I'm tired of hearing this. What happens when I beat Taylor? Then they will call me the guy who defeated all the great champions, ”Bad Left Hook quotes Lopez.

Recall that in 2020, Lopez defeated Lomachenko by unanimous decision and became the absolute world champion.
