Lopez’s grand return to the ring

Top Rank is gearing up for an electrifying boxing event set to coincide with the Super Bowl week. The main event will most likely showcase Teofimo Lopez Jr., defending his WBO junior welterweight title against Jamaine Ortiz. Keyshawn Davis and Jose Pedraza will also be locking horns in the co-main event. Previously, Bob Arum, the head of Top Rank, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “We have a big platform for Teofimo – the week leading up to the Super Bowl is massive”.
