Promotor Eddie Hearn confirmed that there were talks between the Turks al-Sheikh and the lightweight champion in the Richardson Hitchins and Teofimo Lopez velter category for the combat for the next 140 years. Hearn is convinced that his fighter, IBF champion Hitchins (19-0, 7 Kos) will be beaten by WBO’s belt Teofimo (21-1, 13 ko).
Teofimo allegedly signed a contract with three fights with Turks for these three fights:
- Richardson Hitchins
- Jaron Ennis
- Ryan Garcia against Devin Haney 2 winner or loser [most likely loser]
Hearn confirms the conversations
“Yes, it was. Not with a top rank, but with his exploration [Turki Al-Sheikh]”, Eddie Hearn said Fix When asked if there were discussions for the union of the fight between Richardson Hitchins and Teofimo Lopez.
“Keith Connolly represents both guys. So we are ready for that fight. Richardson is ready to jump into the combat to unite immediately from the bat. The deal must be right, obviously, but no problem. It is a great fight for New York, Teo against Hitchins , we win well too.
“So forget the plans for Teofimo Lopez. Richardson Hitchins will beat Teofimo Lopez. So we are ready for that fight. Theophimo Lopez probably,” Hearn said when asked what follows for Hitchins. “Before Teofimo, in the summer we planned to fight George Cambosos in New York”
Hearn is right. Hitchins will 100% beat Teofimo and make it easier in the process. This will be even easier to win for Hitchins than his dominant victory over IBF of £ 140 Liama Paroa 7th. If the Turks want Theophimo to lead three difficult struggles as part of the contract with him, they will lose them all, starting with Richardson.
Teofimo will not fight Hitchin, unless Turks al-Sheikh offers him a ship of money, because it is not his style to lead difficult fights, especially after burning in his matches against Jamaine Ortiz, Sandor Martin and George Cambosos Jr.
Cambosos’ hope
“George will come back. He will return to Australia and then the plan is to move him straight to Richardson Hitchins. If Hitchins fights against Lopez, we will see what will happen, but George shot in shot at 147 and we’ll see what It happens, “Hearn said.
No one wants to see how Cambosos Jr. was the one who runs Hitchins for his IBF belt because in the last three years he does not evaluate the world title filmed with his terrible record. Cambosos goes towards the status of passengers and does not evaluate that he has recorded the title with his record 1-3 in the last four fights. You do not go to a championship game with such a record in any other sport.
