Teo is talking real facts. Gervonta and Haney should step up. :box:

The 119 card was disgusting, Lopez won but fornicate that guy should be investeegated because Lopez lost a few rounds clearly.
I hope there is a rematch clause and Loma will exercise it.
No clauses usually in unifications but I can't imagine why Lopez wouldn't go again with a better slice. Nothing else would make him more and he'd have to be even more confident.
Indeed it may be no rematch clause. If no Lopez vs Loma II next I'd like to see Lopez vs Haney.

How could all four belts be at stake in Lopez vs. Loma when Devin Haney won the WBC title last year and is defending it this November? BoxRec is showing only the IBF, WBA, and WBO titles at stake for Lopez vs. Loma.

Loma was super champion. Lol, don't try and keep track. Way back in the late 80's and early 90's when boxing was big in the States and we'd watch it in large groups I could rattle off the champs in every division from a decade or more previous. Sometimes more than one answer but they'd lose their shit when I'd say tae-shik Kim and when I missed it immediately say Peter mathebula.

I don't know anything past 35 right now.

Ok thanks. So for Lopez to truly be undisputed champion, he would need to defeat Haney. It would be a WBC belt though which Lopez already has.

If you go that route I'm sure there is an interim belt with the wba. If not two. Lol, Haney is a tougher fight than loma IMO.

I agree that Haney would be a tougher fight for Lopez.

I also think, that Haney will be a harder fight for Lopez. And it's not only about styles, size and etc. Haney is younger and hungrier, he'll go for it more.

Let's see if Haney will take it. Until now Lopez proved that he's willing to fight the best fighters in his class. Haney is fighting a washed up Gamboa to prove what? :doh:
