I'm glad Teofimo Lopez decided to take matters into his own hands. $1.25m is peanuts in the boxing world.
$1.25m feels a little bit short.
I'm just glad that you can even do so. Know. Your worth.
The sport is turning into something very beautiful.
I'm glad to see Triller won the purse bid, $6m plus, to stage Teofimo Lopez vs George Kombosos fight.

We need more smart fighters in the sport.
It is all about building a legacy everyone would be proud of.
People like Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather know how important it is to have a great legacy. Just ask Mahammad Ali.
Mike Tyson fucked up his own legacy. But I'm glad to see that he is doing everything he can to repair it.
