In an interaction with the IFL TV, ‘The Gypsy King’ said that he is a fan of Teofimo Lopez. Taking note of Lopez’s last fight, Fury said, “Let me tell you, Richard Commey is a very good f**** fighter, and I am a big fan of him as well, and little Teofimo just walked right in. He is the biggest little tiny man I have seen in my life.”

“I gotta back him and say ain’t no 126 -153 pounders can beat him. No Lomachenkos, nobody. [Because] he is a heavyweight with two tiny legs with speed and power, probably it sounds like me as a featherweight.”
While people have already chosen their sides, it’s time for the world champions to put on the action in front of them. No wonder it is expected to be a nail-biting thriller.
