Following a successful run of 16-0, Teofimo Lopez, who is now the unified lightweight champion, can look forward to exploring more weight classes in the future. Despite having some tests left at 135 lbs, Lopez has also sighted a move up to 140.
That said, he will primarily defend his belts against George Kambosos Jr. on June 19. On bagging a win, he can either stay at lightweight to face the other champions or target a super lightweight title fight against the winner of Josh Taylor vs Jose Ramirez.
As of now, he is unbothered about the next challenge and has appeared fine with facing them all. ‘The Takeover’ connected with Boxing Social to talk about his next target and thrilled the fans with his response.

“Whoever has the ba*** to step in that ring afterwards. Whoever has the ba*** and that gray, who wants it that bad, who wants the glory. These guys chase the money. You know what I mean, the money is always going to run faster. And I try to show them that,” said Teofimo Lopez.

What’s next for Teofimo Lopez?
Despite having his aim fixed at Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney, Josh Taylor, and others, Teofimo Lopez will have to surpass an undefeated George Kambosos Jr. first. Akin to him, Kambosos Jr., who has also been on a tear in the lightweight roster, is unbeaten (19-0).
Teofimo Lopez, who is the champion, is confident. However, he cannot afford to lose focus from his nearing fight as it will be his ticket to the bigger bouts. But if Lopez loses, it might put a dent on his glittering lightweight journey, forcing him to temporarily eat his words.
