Following a sensational win over Vasyl Lomachenko in 2020, Teofimo Lopez’s first title defense saw him split ways with Top Rank Promotions. This added some more drama into the already heated bout. Moreover, two official derailments have had several fans desperately demand the matchup. Thus, Lopez Jr’s return to action can be massive at the Box Office.

The mega-clash between Lomachenko and Lopez earned a record-breaking PPV buy from ESPN. Although George Kambosos Jr. falls short before Lomachenko’s stardom, the Australian pugilist can still rope in some pretty big numbers.

While Teofimo Lopez could breakthrough stardom and taste gold in his 16th pro appearance, Kambosos Jr, is yet to attain that. ‘Ferocious’ has been on an impeccable rise in his lightweight journey, but has been overlooked by several people.
