Lopez v Davis - who wins?

[SlimTrae]

Great match up- both young and explosive.

As great of a win as the Loma fight was for Teo, he looked very uncomfortable when Loma walked to him amid started putting the punches together. I think Tank hits much harder than Loma so will be interesting to see how Teo handles those shots.

Warm images, cold words...



Teofimo Lopez warmed our hearts this week in posting images of him in his formative years alongside greats of the trade like Lennox Lewis and trainer Freddie Roach.

"Little did these champs know they were taking a picture with 'The Future of Boxing,'" wrote Lopez, who is now the sport's breakout star after his win over Vasyl Lomachenko.

He was less complimentary about another legend - Floyd Mayweather.

Lopez is linked with a fight against one of Mayweather's own stars Gervonta 'Tank' Davis and he did not take the fact Mayweather thinks Davis is the main attraction in that bout very well.

"I collected all the belts and I'm the 'B side?' You're crazy man," Lopez told IFL TV.

"I will be blunt, I think Floyd is still trying to find ways to stay relevant. He uses 'Tank' and talks to the media for him. Let 'Tank' be his own man. I think Floyd is crazy."

Somewhere in Lopez's attic there must be a childhood photo of him with Mayweather in his prime. We may need to wait a while to see it.

I'd have to go with Lopez. Size, adaptability and massive momentum coming off Loma win. Both reaching their early peak coming off two huge victories but it's Davis I need to see more consistency from. Both have to avoid the post pinnacle letdown too and not let their egos override discipline and approach.
