Former absolute lightweight champion (up to 61.2 kg) American Teofimo Lopez (16-1, 12 KOs) shared a risky forecast with fans.
On May 28 in Brooklyn (New York, USA), his sidekick compatriot Rolando “Rolly” Romero (14-0, 12 KOs) will try to take away the WBA World 61.2 kg belt from Gervonta “Tank” Davis (26-0, 24 KOs) from USA. Despite the fact that “Rolly” is a clear underdog,
Lopez offers to bet on him: “Personally, I will bet on Romero. He is also a plowman. He has everything to beat Davis.”
According to Lopez, “Davis is only put against those fighters who a priori have no chance of upsetting him, as they are inferior to him in power and weight. But Rollie has power. And he’s a born lightweight. And Romero is very uncomfortable. And those are always the hardest. I know they will both come into the fight in great shape, both of them are training hard. “Tank” is “Tank”. He is good. So I’m looking forward to this fight. And I am glad that in boxing they arrange such fights. ”
In the summer in this weight there will be a fight for the title of absolute world champion between the owner of all belts and the offender of Lopez, Australian George Kambosos Jr. and American Devin Haney. Teofimo made his prediction for this fight a long time ago: “How long can you repeat? Kambosos is like a gift for Haney. He wins, outboxes George. He will do what he always does … I think we will all have to meet a division higher soon … “
Interestingly, Mayweather has exactly the same prediction: Haney won’t beat Kambosos in Australia. Previously, Devin called his main requirement before the fight with George.
