The lightweight king Teofimo Lopez is one of boxing’s newest superstars. The undefeated American, who has taken over the lightweight division by storm, will now defend his titles. Just weeks before his return, he has given his honest opinion on his next challenger, George Kambosos Jr.

Ahead of their clash on June 19, ‘The Takeover’ Lopez has explained why his opponent has no chance against him.

The 16-0 boxer spoke to The Boxing Social on YouTube and said, “He won’t be ready. And that’s what I know, and what I believe. He won’t be ready and he will know, when that first round, and that first bell rings, he will feel it. My presence alone, my energy, and the whole thing is that, he will get a taste of it, and understand what I mean by all that.”

Lopez’s words showed his confidence in his ability. Moreover, based on his comment, ‘The Takeover’ believes Kambosos Jr. is underestimating him.

Kambosos Jr., who is unbeaten, and has earned his shot the hard way, will not be as easy an opponent for Lopez. However, the champion, who is aware of this, has claimed it would not be enough.

“At the end of the day, I know he’s a young, hungry fighter that wants to come out there and try to take this throne that I have, but it just won’t work,” said Lopez.

Although Kambosos Jr. will be a tough challenger, the American made no secret of his confidence with his honest assessment.
