Coach Greg Hackett says that Teophim Lopez will have no opportunity against IBF champion and WBA Welterweight, Jaron “Boots”, if they fight below. Theophimo (22-1, 13 kos) called Ennis (34-0, 30 kos) after his victory over Arnold Barboza Jr. Friday night in Times Square in New York.

Hackett says Teophimo is “Tired of getting a medium money ” Because of the quality of their opposition. He wants to get his first big day of payment fighting the boots, even if it will be destroyed. Greg considers López a type of “clown” fighter, who uses a lot of showboing to entertain fans, but does not provide much offense.
In the last three years, he has participated in a couple of controversial decisions against Sandor Martin and Jamaine Ortiz. López should have lost both, but the judges saved him.
“It’s a mismatch, and that’s why. You have a boy who is from Philadelphia who is obsessed with trying to hurt people. Teo is a clown,” said Greg Hackett A coach a Ysm Sports MediaGiving his thoughts about Teophimo Lopez pushing to fight Jaron ‘boots’ ennis. “You put it there with boots. What will you do?”
It is a complete mismatch if Ennis chooses to fight theophimo because it has too much size, power and punch outlet compared to the New Yorker. Theophimo fought, as he is in his last fight against the light boxer Arnold Barboza Jr., last Friday. López only moved and made a clown the whole fight. The punches he pulled mainly struck air, as his shots were brief to let go of Barboza Jr. It was a struggle as boring as Devin Haney’s.
“The boots are too big, too strong and the speed can be the same. It does not throw as many punches as the boots,” Hackett said. “It’s physically too small. Your IQ is not the same. What will you do? It is a waste of time. It’s a loss of money. The boots don’t get any credit for punching a little ** Teo. So for what? I don’t want to see it at all.”
López is what you say to ‘Fighter Junk. He moves, trying to move forward in the rounds by landing a few shots, and it is not entertaining to see now that he is fighting at the age of 140. In his latest fight against Barboza JR, it can be said that Teophimo co -opted the style of struggle of Shakur Stevenson. He had him down and so boring. The punishment that Teophimo has taken in his fights against Steve Claggett, Jamaine Ortiz and Sandor Martin is probably the reason he chose to copy Shakur’s style.
“Teo is tired of receiving average money. No one cares because you entered and went with 12 rounds with Arnold Barboza, who was clueless after four rounds,” said Claggett.
There is no other explanation why López wants to fight Ennis other than he who wants a great payment. He wants to taste the mega billion for the first time, which is the only way. No one else in your weight class will provide you with the money you can fight against Ennis. Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia have not shown an interest in fighting him. If they did, negotiating the agreement would be almost impossible because Teopimo would probably take advantage.
“Are you going to put teo there with him? The same kind that said,” I still got it? “, Hackett said about what Teophim said after his controversial decision of a ten -round division against Sandor Martin on December 10, 2022 in the garden of Madison Square.” He does not believe in himself. “
If López believed in himself, he would have already fought fighters like Subriel Matias, Keyshawn Davis, Gary Antuanne Russell, Brian Norman Jr. and Richardson Hitchins. All those fighters have shown an interest in fighting him, but he has not been inspired to fight them.
“He’s doing it because he wants to make money. He doesn’t because he wants to win. The boots would kill him. It doesn’t make sense,” Hackett said.
Theophimo is not entirely crazy. He knows what would be against the fight against the boots, but the dough will be so good that he does not matter. It is better to get a giant payment day and lose Ennis than to be at 140, fighting without names for the following three years before it is finally overthrown by one of the contenders.
