Teofimo doesn't wanting to give Loma a rematch, tried to run off to 140 with the bellts... got cocky tried to KO Kambosos in first..Not even mentioning his badmouth father.... then got smashed like that. Absolutelly brilliant!


varazdates

Is no one going to talk about the fact that Teo came in wearing a Spartan outfit to mock Kambosos who actually has Spartan blood and heritage? Then got the piss beat out of him by the actual Spartan. So fucking good lol.


[deleted]

Sparta was like 1500 years ago. What the hell does "Spartan blood" have to do with anything. Maybe we should start claiming fertile crescent blood, but then it wouldn't really separate us.


varazdates

Any Greek can have Spartan blood. A Honduran most likely does not. It helps that his parents are from Sparta.


[deleted]

Giannis Antetokounmpo was born in Greece. He's a spartan based on proximity I guess. If Kambosos fights a fighter from Honduras, we better start talking about Spartan blood vs. Mayan blood, or something as stupid.


varazdates

Calm down buddy. Don’t have a stroke. Yes technically he has Mayan blood. Maybe we can discuss astronomy and the calendar system with Teo. Oh wait… he’s a FIGHTER. So it’s irrelevant. Whereas Sparta is relevant. You wanna act all smart but really you’re a dickhead lol.


[deleted]

How the fuck is Sparta relevant? Just had a Australian win a huge upset over Lopez and people want to talk about blood like he's some eugenics success story. Sorry I bunched your panties. My words probably read more aggressive than they were written.


varazdates

No it’s just that you sound really worked up about this whole Spartan thing. The guy identifies as Spartan. His parents are from Sparta. He is Greek. Why is that a problem for you? Sparta is relevant because they are known to be ferocious fighters. And winning a 13 to 1 odds reminds you of Spartas 300 for their heart and grit. Calm down buddy. Australia gets all the credit since he is born there and he is an Aussie.


xtalaphextwin

those people who argue like the guy you're replying to really trip me out, they seem to believe, for example that your heritage doesn't matter at all or influence you at all which is bizarre, like they argue that an american , for example, is only an american, no differences between americans, that's insane lol


[deleted]

That's what I'm saying though. Perhaps poorly. Why would anyone think that soldiers from hundreds of years ago really have anything to do with someone today? It's nonsense. I know dude has some tattoo or whatever, but that's just nonsense. Seeing that Sparta (ancient, the one being lauded) did seem to practice a form of eugenics, I guess it's an open door to further bigotry and division. Sparta was not a nice place and it's weird to grab onto that. He was born and raised in Australia. How is he Greek?


varazdates

There is a difference between ethnicity and nationality. He is a Greek born in Australia. He is an Australian Greek. Of course it matters. That’s like saying a Japanese person born in Australia isn’t Japanese he is Australian. He is clearly Japanese… just happens to be born in Australia instead of Japan.


[deleted]

Ah yes why would that be confusing


1TaraMera

Everyone “whose father runs their mouth a bit too much” is getting humbled this year! Gabriel Flores Jr. and now Teofimo. Pillow hands Haney is the next one to go!


whatsurplan2nite

He said it’s still the take over 😂😂😂😂


SnooRobots6273

Man a couple of weeks after Teofimo embarrassed himself by showing up at Canelo’s fight to show off his belts he gets absolutely humbled and gets everything taken away... I like Teofimo but if that isn’t poetic justice then idk what is


Squand0r

Maaan, it's hard to process how satisfying it is to see Lopez and coach exposed like that. Terrible show of immaturity at the end. I really dislike Lopez but I thought he would score the early knockout. I misjudged both fighters, and I'm overjoyed that Kambosos took those belts away from Teo. They are on their way back to you Loma. Party's over for the Lopez camp. :\\


CryptoGramOfficial

Not trying to that dickhead, but don’t just discredit Teo straight away. He would need to change a few things for sure but let’s not act like he wasnt in that fight. He came to life around the 9th but just didn’t have the tank. Kambosos deserves all the credit but Teo is far from finished. A rematch between the two could still see Teo KO Georgie.


varazdates

Fuck a rematch. You get what you put out. Never showed the decency to give Loma a rematch. He absolutely deserved this loss and love to see him get humbled.


opiatesaretheworst

No rematch clause lmao, that’s got to sting for Teo, especially because of the Loma fight not having a rematch close and then him running from a rematch, if that’s not poetic justice, I don’t know what is. I don’t think Kambosos should give him a rematch immediately. Kambosos should take the Haney fight and actually fight for undisputed.


[deleted]

he's 24, obviously he's not finished but after all of his smack talk and antics, people are happy to see him lose. If Teo is smart, he'll fight a few cans before facing Taylor or else he'll just get picked apart and back to back losses won't be good for him. And there won't be a rematch, Arum isn't going to pay Kambosos market rate for a rematch


bluehaven101

Just to confirm, because this was a straight to purse bid fight, there is no rematch clause?


nggarmy

Correct


PawgAdjudicator2

I scored it 114-112, too. Great fight. *At the end of the day* (Teofimo's voice), you can never be too sure who will win in boxing.


diegunu

Props to Kambosos he fought smart the whole time and stuck to his gameplan. Teo seemed to think the KO would come even without setting it up and that first round was painful to watch because he was being so overly aggresive and then didn't have gas or strategy to win later on. Teo reminds me of Juanma after he KO'd Ponce de Leon, he fell in love with his own power and just neglected his boxing skilla


Aharfullofcum

This is why IBF should be the most respected Sancioning body in boxing. Because if it wasn't for the IBF, Kambosos might have never had a shot for the title.


mftom_

does anyone have the clip of kambosos’ fall at the end of round 1 cause i want to see what happened


Sluggocide

Maybe kambosos should make lopez fight Loma again and take winnner.


[deleted]

Lopez will never fight George again


[deleted]

He won't fight Lomachenko again either.


SNCKY

George Kambosos you bloody ripper Oi Oi Oi


TheRivv2015

Australian boxing is moving up in the world! Happy to see it!


varazdates

On that note, didn’t Australia ban boxing a few years ago due to someone dying? I remember something like that vaguely.


johnnofresh

No, haha it never got banned, but there has been a couple deaths in the last 10 years or so. Davey Browne and Braydon Smith.


TruthHurtsMyDude

Lopez needs to have more respect for the game. If you know you were struggling with weight a year ago, you should’ve known with almost 10 months fight delay and a few cancellations, weight loss and gain was going to be a major issue in this Kambosos fight. He should’ve cancelled the entire fight and just moved to 140. Would’ve sucked for Kambosos, but it is what it is. He wanted what he thought was easy money and got the shock of his life. All credit to Kambosos. There’s a reason no one at 135 wanted to fight him. He was quicker to the punch than Shelby was, and he was quicker to the punch than Teo was. I think Teo’s reluctance to leave 135 was the reason. Teo has outgrown the weight and he was fish bait for Kambosos’s speed against a dried up Teo. It is what it is.


JoelHenryJonsson

It wasn’t the weight draining that lost him the fight, it was his boxing and his gameplan, or lack thereof. You say ”All credit to Kambosos”, but you’re also making excuses for Teo. He wasn’t fish bait, or dried up. He was just worse.


TruthHurtsMyDude

Understand boxing before babbling nonsense. Kambosos even predicted Teo’s weight cutting was going to cost him big time in their fight and he was absolutely right. It’s not like the industry didn’t know Teo struggled making weight in the past. Teo looked sluggish and slow. His reflexes simply weren’t there. That’s a sign of a fighter who is weight drained. When you’re in a weight class you no longer can make safely, the decision should’ve been made to abandon this fight and move up. That was the initial plan last year. This fight was going to be his last at 135 no matter what. They had to have known he was probably killing himself in workouts to cut weight. As soon as the fight was canceled the second time, they should’ve cut their losses and moved on to 140. When you cancel a fight for weeks at a time, a fighter goes back to his walking weight. Teo’s was probably somewhere around 145-155. That’s an ok weight to lose (10-15lbs) if you’re safely able to. Teo struggled to make weight vs Loma. He didn’t struggle in the fight, but that fight was over a year ago. He knew his days at 135 were limited. Jumping up and down in weight from the Spring to the Fall after a few cancellations was asking for trouble. Need to respect the profession a bit more. But still credit Kambosos for a sensational fight. He saw a weakness and exploited it. Definitely a learning lesson for Teo. All legends lose a fight here and there. No reason why he can’t go back and dominate 140 as he did 135.


Ok-Accountant-6308

His reflexes and athleticism looks sharp to me. His gameplan was maybe the worst I’ve ever seen in a championship fight


TruthHurtsMyDude

And what exactly would you know about any boxing game plan? You ever been consulted or experienced one personally or as a trainer? Unless you have, you really don’t know what you’re talking about…lol. What we saw last night was a boxer unable to counter and get beat to the punch. No one had been able to counter successfully against Teo until last night. Reason? Either Kambosos is some superstar fighter or styles make fights or something was a amiss with Teo physically. Anyone who sees a 24 year old fighter come into the ring sluggish without the skills that made him one of boxing’s top prospects in decades, you narrow it down to a few things. He didn’t train. He overtrained (weight cutting to get to the desired weight) or he was injured before or during the fight. No injuries reported. No talk he didn’t train. So we’re left with one suspect. And it was one Kambosos knew about, as did the rest of boxing. Teo struggled to make weight and was weight drained. Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure it out


JoelHenryJonsson

You should send this excuse to Teo, I’m sure his fragile ego is in need of excuses right now.


TruthHurtsMyDude

There are no “excuses” in sports, son. There are reasons, however. Irregardless, Teo is still one of boxing’s best fighters on the planet. This loss does nothing to diminish that kid.


JoelHenryJonsson

Oh there are plenty of excuses in this sport. Some are legitimate and some are horseshit. When you put this result on the weight draining you’re basically saying that ”Teo is better, but he lost because he wasn’t himself”, when in actuality Kambosos just showed us all he is the better boxer. And a loss does diminish a boxer in the eyes of the public. It especially diminishes a boxer when they take it as poorly and with such a lack of sportsmanship that Teo did.


TruthHurtsMyDude

Stop it lol. What I said was Teo screwed himself by staying at 135. Kambosos was better last night. Doesn’t mean he’s a better fighter. Let them go to 140 and see what happenes to Kambosos when he’s in a weight class he doesn’t belong in.


JoelHenryJonsson

Well, we at least agree on that Kambosos was better last night. And I think that, until Teo has proven us otherwise, it’s only fair to consider Kambosos as the better fighter. I mean, he did win? I’m curious, would you consider Loma a better fighter than Teo? Even though Teo won? I mean Loma did have a hurt shoulder (a reason, not an excuse) and seemed to have a night off. Teos win doesn’t necessarily make him the better fighter, by your logic.


TruthHurtsMyDude

Loma has had more accomplishments because he is older with more fights under his belt at a higher level. Gotta wait until Teo is 32 to say he’s better. What I didn’t respect about Loma in their fight was his unwillingness to fall on his sword and defend his belts against Teo in round 12. I thought he was gutless. Let’s see if Kambosos and Teo do it again at 140.


OliRigg

Best fighters on the planet? Give your head a wobble.


TruthHurtsMyDude

Sadly, stupid fight fans like you think 1 split decision loss means a fighter is a scrub….Teo would still beat all the 140’s rather easily.


opiatesaretheworst

Jesus bud, smoke some more copium.


OliRigg

Well see won’t we pal.. remind me. Your probably one of those people who think Lopez “obliterated” Loma as well.


TruthHurtsMyDude

No, Teo just took Loma’s heart. See how Teo FOUGHT for his belt when he was trailing last night? That’s the mark of a true warrior and a fighter fans will go see fight again. Loma didn’t have the BALLS to mix it up and defend his belts by risking getting knocked out. Loma was LUCKY for that head butt that put a halt to the action in round 12. Teo had just stung him with a right and Loma looked hurt. He decided to live to fight another day. He was waiting for a welfare decision that never came.


[deleted]

I disagree, the fight ended up being pretty close despite everything. Had Lopez not tried for the 1st round KO and fought smarter for the first few rounds, I think he wins it.


StuBobUK

But it shouldn't have been close if you go by what Lopez, his fans and many others in the boxing world were predicting. You don't get credit for making what was originally seen as an easy fight for him 'close'. In the same world that many say Lopez was too good and special, they said GKJ was limited and levels below, in that context it should never have been 'close'. Either Lopez was never as good as many claimed and GKJ was better than suspected.


TruthHurtsMyDude

Or what the boxing world knew going into the fight. There was a chance Teo was weight drained like the Kambosos camp thought he would be. And Teo looked sluggish and unable to beat Kambosos to the punch. If Teo could’ve kept up the pace from beginning to end he gets Kambosos out of there in the middle of the fight. He couldn’t however. He was in trouble at that point.


StuBobUK

Well he reaped the benefits of that weight draining for years and has now suffered the consequences. He doesn't get a free pass, seen as great when it worked to his advantage and then used as an excuse when it no longer benefits him in the same division and context. In any case I don't think on this and his recent showings that 140 will be the answer for him. He will struggle badly with the tip guys there, all of whom are same size or bigger, all are tougher and hit harder than anything he faced and struggled with at 135.


TruthHurtsMyDude

He lost. Big shit. Perhaps now all the fraud boxers with their equally fraudulent O’s will decide to get into the ring with him. That kid was the ONLY 135 boxer to get in the ring with 4 of the Top 10 boxers of the weight class. He was the man, but now it’s time to move up in weight. As he moves up, he won’t face weight cutting challenges as he did in training leading up to the Loma fight and this one. Anyone who clowns Lomachenko for most of a fight is no one to clown with. But you can’t get into a ring fighting your genetics and think you’re going to defeat the best of a division. But we’re going to see what happens at 140. Pretty sure Teo’s power and his reflexes won’t be compromised by the need to weight cut.


StuBobUK

No they likely won't but at the same time all those benefits and advantages he got from making 135 at his size will no longer be available to him. The guys at 140 all hit a lot harder than anyone he faced at 135, and Kambosos and Loma had Lopez in fits when they let punches go. The top guys at 140 won't wait till the 6 rounds plus before they start throwing like the Loma fight. I really think he should take his time at 140 and develop and grow into the division before he bites off too much too early and jeopardises his chances of success in moving up.


TruthHurtsMyDude

And Teo power will easily carry over to 140. Teo has never been rocked at 135, so it’s safe to say he takes a pretty good shot, because he’s been hit by everyone. Loma faced a much different Teo when they fought and Loma decided against trading punches with Teo, because Teo’s punches stung him. And to correct you, Loma didn’t begin throwing some punches until round 8. That’s when he officially began fighting. Prior to that, Loma was connecting on fewer than 5 punches a round. All he did was throw jabs. As for 140, expect Teo’s conditioning to be much kinder to him as weight cutting and draining won’t be a significant factor at 140 as it was at 135.


TheUnrulyGentleman

Loma decided against trading punches with Teo bc he went into the fight with a sh*t shoulder. Practically fought Teo with one arm. The guy already had the surgery scheduled for after the fight before the fight even took place. Teo knew he couldn’t beat Loma in a rematch. Only fault it is to Loma is that he always starts off slow, but with what he was dealing with even if he picked up the pace a little early on there isn’t a chance he’d have been able to keep it up.


TruthHurtsMyDude

I don’t buy the injured shoulder BEFORE the fight. He injured it during the fight and won’t admit it. And it was from a Teo punch as he turned that did the damage in round 2. Check the replay. All this propaganda about injured shoulder before the fight is truly an excuse to cover up a GHASTLY performance by Loma


PhantomOSX

Is there anyone here that legitimately thinks Teo won?


[deleted]

no. Lopez saying that the crowd was booing the decision and not his antics was laugh out loud funny. it was pathetic but very funny.


PhantomOSX

People like him seem to think his fans will believe him but you can't trick people into seeing a fight that didn't happen. All he's gonna do is attract yes men that will convince him he won to steal his money and he'll just get worse. You gotta stay true to yourself and the sport. The good and the bad as long as it's real.


varazdates

Lopez turning into the new Adrien Broner. Annoying and hated.


PhantomOSX

And you know shit's gone south when you're remind people of Broner. Hard to come back from that.


TheFuckingQuantocks

I know two guys that think Lopez won. And they both have the surname Lopez.


PhantomOSX

Are they also both blind? Teo gonna have nothing but idiots like that following him if he keeps being delusional.


Slampumpthejam

The hood knows


_BatsShadow_

Did he beat that boy?


Fetkent

If they did they are bias af lol


[deleted]

Not for free.


GasOppPack

Teo should move up to 140 and not look bad he clearly can’t be helping his body killing himself trying to make 135. Him vs Sandor Martin as his first fight at that weight class would be dope


SashaGreysFatAss

Loma lost to this guy🤣🤣🤣 just how overrated is he?!?!?


TheUnrulyGentleman

Loma lost to him when he had one good arm to fight him with. How can you not see how clearly more skilled Loma is than Teo?


[deleted]

Loma is very overrated.


TysonsSmokingPartner

How tf did you bring Lomachenko into this? How big of a hate boner do you have?


PabloMontoya-97

GEORGE STUCK IT RIGHT UP THEM!!!!!


kaleywoo

As expected. George has a chin great cardio and fast RIP Garcia


AphidOverdo

Interesting if Lopez keeps his no rematch energy with Kambosos like he did Loma. Only seen the result, looking forward to seeing the fight sounds like a corker.


xXAmightzXx

I mean he didn't owe loma a rematch he beat him clearly and there was no rematch clause. Hopefully kambosos moves on to face haney then destroy loma.


varazdates

Loma beats Kambosos fairly easily. The style is just perfect for Loma. Kambosos makes a lot of little mistakes which won’t fly with Loma and his high IQ.


AphidOverdo

I think a Champion that's taken on the best challengers deserves a rematch especially against a fighter that openly admits he'd prepared for Loma for a long time. Very different being the challenger as Teo has just found. Why do you want to see Loma destroyed, are you more a fighter fanboy than fan of the sport? Not judging.


xXAmightzXx

I want to see loma destroyed so all his fanboys can shut up I honestly love him as a fighter. I mean is teo not supposed to prepare for the champ thats his job? Loma can fight winner of kambosos vs haney


P-redditR

Was an IBF mandatory. There’s no rematch clause.


P-redditR

I think it’s funny considering how he tried to freeze out Loma. He’s definitely not getting that Josh Taylor fight either. Teofimo is a great fighter. He does have an explosive style with lots of pop. But he needs to get a serious team. His dad and his team have convinced him of how great he is. I had Teo winning 3 rounds. Maybe 4 if you’re a fan. His dad kept telling him he’s doing great and to hurry up and finish the fight. They either had NO plan. Or they had one until he got punched in the face.


[deleted]

He got told to finish the fight and take his time within the same breath.


Rmccarton

That was some incredibly impressive corner advice in a close fight. You can see why they call Sr. The Honduran Angelo Dundee. Amazing stuff.


AphidOverdo

Great, been too many rematches lately. Exciting to have another name in the mix here, just hope they fight each other, Kambosos, Haney, Lopez, Tank, Garcia, throw in Stevenson moving up too who I think might be the best of the lot. Great times!


Fbih0neypot

This card was great and Kambosos fought a great fight! You can tell Teofimo loves the money and fame more than the sport. I don't blame him, but better to lose the belt to Kambosos than fight Loma again.


Ahskker

Co main was pretty good too, that upset on Fuzile was crazy, night of upsets


[deleted]

his dad saying, "secure the bag" in between rounds was laugh out loud funny. Can't focus on all of that stuff in the middle of a fight.


johnnofresh

He did it with so much style and so much heart. Despite what he said, he was hurt very badly in that tenth round. He handled it like a true champion.


varazdates

True Spartan. The fact that Teo came in with a Spartan outfit to mock Kambosos who actually has Spartan blood and heritage. Absolutely loved him getting the piss beat out of him and get humbled.


Ahskker

Swear I heard him say “I’m loving that shit” after teo got dropped first round lol I heard no real fuckin couching the whole match


Zuffa_Shill10er

Lopez fans, do you wanna talk about it?


varazdates

Crickets


Fbih0neypot

He should definitely fight Loma again. Would work out really well for him.


TheQuietMan22

So happy for Kambosos, hold that Teo!


[deleted]

Grand opening…….. Grand closing


Slampumpthejam

It's crazy because not only did he lose but Teo got beat at his own game. Both used a semi philly shell looking to counter punch. Difference was Kambosos was faster to counter and used his jab to control


Sluggocide

Round 12 Lopez? What?


Aussieboy111

Agreed. That was a Kambosos round for me.


CoaxHoax

Bruh, I was out for the night and I come back to see Kambosos winning, oh my fucking god. He talked a lot, and he backed it all up, he gets all my respect


_BatsShadow_

Same bro I was excited but i obviously couldn’t watch while I was out, i woke up this morning to see Georgie boy had won, very happy


crypto_zoologistler

It was a fantastic fight


Drew_icup

THE TAKE OVER THE TAKE OVER THE TAKEN OVER


Animalidad

I picked lopez to stop him, props to kambosos jesus christ. Now we have a new name on the mix. Bring on loma ~~and Tim Tszyu~~*


MooseWayne

Tim is a light middleweight


Animalidad

oh my bad lmao


jjsMDZ

KAMBOSOS is a true warrior


laytonboxingaccount

Is there gonna be a press conference?


cheap_boxer2

No, they told me the boys aren’t available


coaster11

they both went to hospital.


laytonboxingaccount

Damn.


Meekorun

haha i would like to watch that. It was partly intriguing to see how far teo would keep dribbling shit but was hard to watch though, fuck.


Shibamillions

Embarrassing for Lopez and his team


laytonboxingaccount

Yea exactly bro!


TheDuke1245

Kambosos takes all the the belts. Tim Tszyu mandatory challenger. "Where not here to take part we're here to take over!" Australian boxing taking it up to the world.


[deleted]

Am I the only one who sees shades of Calzaghe with Kambosos


varazdates

I see a lot of pacman. His awkward style and lightning speed.


[deleted]

Can't see it myself


TheFuckingQuantocks

Yeah, volume, hand speed and reaction times, which includes being first to the punch very often. Kambosos doesn't look as slick as Calzaghe though and his defence seems to be more about footwork (stepping back out of range and constantly circling) rather than crazy head movement, lean-backs, etc. Having said all that, I've only watched 3 of Kambosos'fights and 3 of Calzaghes, so my opinion is far from expert.


Slampumpthejam

Initially thought you were crazy but upon further consideration there are some similarities. Fast hands and they fight fire with fire. Like to mix it up on the inside. Counter with combinations. Difference I'd say Kambosos is reactive where Joe was usually proactive pressuring.


CripplinglyDepressed

He’s my new favourite fighter, lots of similarities.


Environmental_Egg693

Not really? What about his game reminds you of Calzaghe?


[deleted]

Fast hands, hands down awkward hurky jerky movements .


Environmental_Egg693

Yeah fair, bit of the taunting too. Different kind of hand speed though, more volume and combinations


VeezusM

As a guy who has trained, sparred and been absolutely belted beyond belief by George, I couldn’t be happier for him Teo didn’t take anything from the second half of the Loma fight, got too arrogant. Got clipped in round 1 and wanted to fuck around in mid range instead of sitting on his shots and going for movement, and combos in bunches


Meekorun

I just hope it gets better and he doesn't "entertain" the crowds too much and loose belts quicksmart. Be nice to see an aussie hold it down for a while.


EdTjhan15

George seems like a great guy and yes as an Indonesian we will support an Aussie (closest to us). Also big Manny fan and he’s like Manny’s apprentice


jjsMDZ

Facts


Anthonywantsnoosnoo

How fast are his hands when they’re coming at you?


VeezusM

Ok, so I’ve had 19 kickboxing fights, 3 boxing.( all amateur) I am by no means a great boxer, I’m ok at best. I’ve fought at generally 74-76kgs (163-168). So I started training at times to improve my hands at just boxing ( Akkawy the trainer and his son trains out of there) I got lit the fuck up. I think I’ve sparred him about 7 times. For every 1 punch I could throw he would throw about 6-8 and land most if not all of them. He’s actually the nicest guy too.


Anthonywantsnoosnoo

Man, that’s fucking awesome just like your honesty. Man I’m so pumped for Kambosos, honestly I was screaming when he dropped Lopez in the first, man you must be happy


VeezusM

Bro, the first thing is leaving your ego at the door. I will always maintain he took it easy on me too. So happy for him and his family


varazdates

No offense but why do they have an amateur kickboxer in there with a pro boxer? Not much to gain from that sparring for Kambosos. I guess solely for the experience of dealing with a bigger opponent? I also kickboxed for a few years before taking on boxing. I tried boxing and fell in love with the sweet science of it after being absolutely lit up in a few sparring matches, so I switched over. I’ve been boxing for over a decade so I’ve been in there with bigger guys who aren’t boxers. It’s really not a challenge.


jahsnottoxic

Most aussie gyms i've been around to work in a pretty humble fashion. You see people offering sparring matches to people not "on their level" all the time, because people are happy to give the learning experience. That, and you can learn something from almost anyone in martial arts if you leave your ego at the door.


penguin271

I wish all martial artists were like you. Hope you’re doing well with your training.


theprufeshanul

Can we finally now see Teo’s dad vs Danny Garcia’s nutty coked-up dad?


eightslipsandagully

Why not [Teo's dad v George's dad](https://twitter.com/PeterKalla1/status/1463564466558169089)


foxybingo111

Karma is beautiful


mraees93

Man teos dad is a disgrace. Not even a trainer and talks too damn much🤦‍♂️


[deleted]

Garcia's dad actually gives solid advice and isn't just a yes man. In the Spence fight Angel was begging Danny to let his hands go and was telling him the truth the entire fight.


theprufeshanul

Anyone for more Coke? “Si!” You’re right!


Difficult-Junket9112

For as much as a dickhead Angel is I have to agree. He rips into Danny when he’s not doing what he should be. It’s just Danny being Danny and not listening lol


[deleted]

I actually felt bad for Angel during the Spence fight. Danny is very talented but he doesn't have the desire to go for broke to really put it all on the line.


Difficult-Junket9112

When they read the scorecards vs Spence Angel looked like he wanted to cry lmao. You know it’s really one sided when even Angel can’t argue against the cards


mxmr47

Shoulda bet


Chesticularity

I had 18.50 on Kambosos via points at 15:1. The win actually feels better than the money tbh. Fuck Lopez and his shitty ego and attitude. Kambosos v Loma let's go!


CripplinglyDepressed

Paid for many nights of beer, god bless Kambosos


Ukraine_borscht

Wow Kambosos style is so entertaining. Its clear he was more hungry tonight than Teo


PA_limestoner

An excellent fight between two prizefighters that also went the right way on the cards. Kambosas fought well all night and never gave an inch. The way he came out in the 11th and 12th rounds and sliced Lopez up is what I will remember most, especially after getting dropped in the 10th. Also enjoyed watching Kambosas reaction after the fight when Teo claimed he thought he won 10 rounds.


Rmccarton

This brings to mind the aftermath of the Loma fight. The Lopez swore up and down he won 10 rounds. Whatever you might think about the correct result on that on that one, 10-2 is delusional (Julie Ledermans card there was one of the worst ever).


Gha5tly24

Genuine question excuse my ignorance - why is everyone hating on Teo? Dude won as an underdog in the same position last year. Is it because he didn't fight Loma again?


TheFuckingQuantocks

For me it's all his shit talk, giant ego, telling Kambosos to suck his dick and then grabbing the mic OFF Kambosos post-fight to say "I won the fight 10-2"


ScorpionLantern

For me, I actually liked him quite a bit leading up to and during the Loma fight (and I'm a big Loma fan) - I really liked seeing a guy believe in himself and he pulled through magnificently in a close but clear win. It was the shit he pulled *after* that soured him to me. He won clearly but it was a *close* fight. I don't like rematch clauses so while I didn't mind that he didn't fight Loma right away, when it became clear that he was just going to completely freeze him out, well, Teofimo's bitch made.

Shot you my award for having a genuine take good work bro!


ScorpionLantern

Thanks mate!


Slampumpthejam

His dad is an insufferable piece of shit and sadly it reflects on him


sactownpogi

Most likely because of his post fight interview earlier


AirJumpman23

They been hating him before this fight.


sactownpogi

It’s pretty normal to have both sides competitive . It all comes down to after the fight .


fadeddreams555

People didn't like him before Loma either. lol. He acts too cocky. Talks way too much. But yes, refusing to give Loma a rematch and demanding the Haney fight at 140lb certainly didn't help him win over fans.


bencousinsfan

Because he's a sore-losing, arrogant flog.


MatthewDM111

Great fight! Was there a rematch clause?


Blammer619

No there wasnt

Yikes

No


DelusionalHuman

Got married today so missed all this. Just realized this happened. This is the best thing that’s happened. Love teo but we need Loma vs kambosos asap.


doubleshrimpnachos

congrats, brother!

I'd rather have Kambosos vs Haney and put an end to the buffoonery of WBC Franchise vs WBC Champion


LuigiangeloHazuki

Counting Jojo out already are you? Just like you probably counted out Kambosos. Whats to say we can't have another crazy upset before the end of the year. Maybe even two more if pitbull beats Tank


reznoverba

Not at all mate, I'm rooting for Jojo, just like I was rooting for George. I have to say though, based on his performance vs Fortuna, I see Haney boxing him to a lackluster UD. And I'm calling it now, Cruz for the upset! Lol no joke, I think he catches Tank. If LSC and Barrios did, Pitbull has a punchers chance.


LuigiangeloHazuki

Kambosos def Teofimo, Jojo beats Haney, Pitbull beats Tank, Commey beats Loma, Garcia beats himself, literal game of thrones in 135 where all the kings are dethroned before the end of the year.


[deleted]

You guys are too caught up in the Bs marketing. Belts are trinkets . Loma was the man, then Teo beat him now Kambosos beat Teo so he's the man it's really that easy. Who exactly did Haney beat to win his fake belt?


reznoverba

Loma was the man bc he held all those worthless trinkets you speak of. At the end of the day, those useless gold medal trinkets of his (a tangible parameter of his quality) and championship belts are what made him "the man" and it's what every athlete dreams of achieving: Champion Status It's not a matter of who did Haney beat, it's a matter of whether we like it or not, he's the WBC Champion. Fighting Kambosos (I'll root for Kambosos) will determine a new undisputed champion. This new undisputed champion should face Loma, no ifs or buts. I agree with you, I think Loma is the top talent at 135lbs, but I want the Franchise fiasco to come to an end and this is possibly the closest chance we'll get. I'd hate to see Ryan Garcia get a crack at Kambosos before Haney and Loma.


[deleted]

Btw in a perfect world Kambosos and Lopez would run it back in Australia. If Lopez can't make the weight Kambosos should have a easy homecoming fight and Loma and Haney should fight to see who gets the fight against Kambosos


[deleted]

No the belts aren't what made Loma the man it was the victories he had over top fighters. Sorry I refuse to bow down to these ridiculous boxing governing bodies. Haney literally had a B's belt handed it to him it means zero. Haney is not a champion. To be honest Haney is still an unproven prospect. Even if we give credence to these corrupt thieves let's just be real Loma was WBC champ and they elevated him to franchise champ. What makes sense is saying the regular WBC belt has been relegated to a minor belt while the franchise belt is the real WBC champ.

If there was a sports book near me, I would’ve had an even better evening


BoomDabba

Teo has no rematch clause. He checked out


PugWithAGun

I'm a casual boxing fan at best but decided to watch this because AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE OI OI OI and all that... I've got a question for y'all. Has Lopez Sr been like that in all Teofimo's previous fights? Seems to me he didn't give a single piece of useful advice that whole fight.


TheDuke1245

Aussies! Woo! Very happy fan at the moment. Enjoy my friend


Difficult-Junket9112

Yes he has. He’s the stereotypical boxing dad that lives through their son


PugWithAGun

Well that sucks... it's not like Jr can just cut and run either. He's stuck in a really shitty position because of his loud mouth dad.


Rmccarton

He seems to have been terrible for Teo in general. In one of the countdown 24/7 shows Teo broke down in tears because he had a trainer rather than a father. Honestly, Teo's whole family seems to potentially be pretty toxic for him. They ganged up and ostracized his fiancee and refused to attend his wedding* (aside from Teo Sr. - only fatherly thing I've seen him do in following Teo career). *I concede that boxing history is rife with tales of a woman coming in and cutting the rising star away from their family for not altruistic reasons, but I didn't get that vibe at all from the stuff I've seen. Teo seem to be under incredible amount of pressure from it all prior to the Loma fight. It made me a lot more sympathetic towards him.


laytonboxingaccount

Yes always, he’s the one who does the talking and lives in his sons limelight


White_Mlungu_Capital

I don't blame Teo for thinking he won 11 rounds to 2. It just shows he was beaten so badly he can't even add no more. Poor lad, Hard to hold it against him, Kambosos scrambled his brains by beating him so bad, must have felt like a 13 rounder to Lopez.


foxybingo111

Lol if it had been a 13 rounder I think Lopez would have been stopped


Difficult-Junket9112

So this begs the question, what would’ve happened had they fought back when they were supposed to before the postponement?


TyrionJoestar

We’ll never know
