IBF World Lightweight Champion Teofimo Lopez, who won the title with a TKO victory over Richard Commey on December 4, 2019, will be answering questions from fans on April 1st. So if you have any questions, head over to 'reddit' (/r/boxing).

I didn't know he had asthma and he's been battling it since he was 6 years old. He said he almost died 3 times. He is a tough one, that's for sure.

He actually said that he is working on bringing his weight back down, which he has gained because of the pandemic. Good thing is he has a bag in the garage which he uses for techniques and mixing it up with situps and pushups.

Am hearing this from you. Hadn't heard about asthma too.

It actually came as a surprise to a lot of people. It is funny how much you can learn about someone if you just take time and have a discourse.

Teofimo Lopez is awesome. He even joked about his sex life, especially when it comes to how it affects his performance during fights.

Also, I wanted to add that he talked about the medication he is on which helps with the asthma. So if you are struggling with the same condition, head over to the sub-reddit and check out his suggestions.

Sure. I will check it out. I understand asthma is supposed to go away on it's own at some age. But if it fails, it seems like a bad thing. I may need to see the recommended remedy here.

I guess if you have a prescription from a physician then it's all good.

Teofimo is a beast, nonetheless. Can you imagine dealing with asthma and being a boxer at the same time? I tip my imaginary hat to the guy.

Well, I'm pretty sure there is a lot of other fighter and athletes in general who are deal with the same condition or even worse. Sheer determination, that is what it is.
