Next fight of Teofimo Lopez is not determined yet.
George Kambosos (20-0, 10 KOs) got to the WBA, IBF and WBO lightweight belts due to Teofimo Lopez (16-1, 12 KOs). The Australian claims that he is ready to give the American a revenge in the heavier weight limit, if, of course, he first settles his affairs in the category up to 61.2 kg.
Teofimo Lopez (16-1, 12 KOs) complained that he had lost his championship belts because he could no longer make the lightweight limit. Josh Taylor (19-0, 13 KOs) cited the same reason for his poor performance in the fight as Jack Catterall and announced a possible move to welterweight. It was assumed that he would move up to a heavier weight category, but, perhaps, for the sake of Lopez, he would have another fight at 63.5 kilograms.
The promotional organization Triller Fight Club will not receive a refund from the IBF for the deposit that was made to the organization of the fight between George Kambosos (20-0, 10 KOs) and Teofimo Lopez (16-1, 12 KOs). Thriller will lose, thus, 1.2 million dollars.
Teofimo Lopez (16-1, 12 KOs) can start his first steps in super lightweight with a fight for the world title. The American has a chance to fight for the vacant WBO belt if Josh Taylor will finally confirm that he is relinquishing his titles and moving up to welterweight.
Former Unified World Lightweight Champion Teofimo Lopez supported Ukrainians opposing the Russian occupation of their country. Lopez attached photos of Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko, Oleksandr Usyk and his former rival in the ring Vasily Lomachenko to his post.
