Re: Teofimo Lopez vs Jamaine Ortiz ESPN
I missed the fights last nightbut thanks for the commentaries, guys.
From the sounds of it, and what I've read elsewhere, it seems Pedraza should seriously be considering hanging up the gloves. He's had a great career... but it's probably time to call it a day.

Re: Teofimo Lopez vs Jamaine Ortiz ESPN
Teofimo Lopez got into a heated exchange with an undefeated contender after his first WBO super-lightweight title defence.
On Thursday evening, the 26-year-old retained his belt controversially as he was awarded a unanimous decision win despite seemingly being outboxed by Jamaine Ortiz over 12 rounds.
In the co-main event, lightweight star Keyshawn Davis stretched his perfect record to 10-0 with a TKO win over former two-weight world champion Jose Pedraza.
After witnessing Lopez labour to victory from ringside, Davis incited a furious row by using his face time with the champion to call him out.
‘The Takeover’ responded by leaning over the ropes to show off his belts before shouting at his rival as Top Rank caught the entire incident on camera.
It’s not clear exactly what Lopez had to say, but it’s safe to assume it wasn’t nice as Davis jumped out of his seat and tried to physically confront the 20-1 fighter.
“I’m not scared of that s***, boy,” he said.
“I’m gonna take that s***.”
Lopez responded by claiming Davis "doesn’t wanna fight" before distancing himself from the matchup during his post-fight interview.
“We're talking about a lightweight," Lopez said on ESPN about Davis.
"We're talking about a lightweight over here. He hasn't done anything.
"Just like Vasiliy Lomachenko told me, if you want to fight me, you got to get a title. Get a world title. If you want to fight the king, go ahead, and get the world title.
"I'm not going to give it to you guys ... for what? You guys want it easy! Everybody wants it easy!"
The American is instead targeting a catchweight clash with Terence Crawford, but the undisputed welterweight king doesn't seem interested.
'Bud' reacted to Lopez's controversial win on social media.
"Talked all that s*** about me and lost," Crawford wrote.
"Like I told him, focus on who you fighting not me.
"Teofimo Lopez back to the drawing board you go chump...
"He got a gift and he know it that’s why he crying...
"Catchweight what? This guy is crazy, but he knows what’s up.
"He just trying to use my name for promotion."

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
