Sorry you thought I sucked champ. I think your striking sucks. Let me work with you so @JonnyBones doesn’t kick your ass for a third straight time. https://t.co/p0yHZtN1I9

Pretty good Serg so let me retweet so that people actually see it. You have 10k followers. We can’t waste good material can we? You sure didn’t have any last night during the fight https://t.co/nAQF26n6lm

- Although it was recently announced that the WBC would order Teofimo Lopez to fight in a four-man tournament to name a new mandatory challenger for the WBC lightweight title, Lopez isn't getting his hopes up too much. Lopez took to Twitter to react to the news.
I never believe a word from Boxing anymore unless it’s sign and sealed.. reason why I don’t get excited when they say I’m next up lol
