Will Theofimo Lopez risk his VBO title against Hitchins or Catterlal-Barbose winners?

Eddie Hearn’s promoter says he didn’t have a “profound conversation” about the United Fight between his fighter IBF Light Valleterweight Champion Richardson Hitchins and Vbo Champ Teofimo Lopez. Hearn says he’s ready to fight if the “agreement” is right.

If theofimo (21-1, 13 KOS) does not fight for Hitchins or one of the other 140-lb champions in the unification, then must face the Jack Katterl’s winner against Arnold Barbose Jr. Fight this Saturday. These two are fighting for the temporary title of VBO.

Catterall-Barboza implications

The only other option for theo if you do not fight unification or defending against the winner of Katterl-Barboza Jr. Is to give up his VBO. This means that the winner of this struggle will be elevated to the status of the champion and that will happen to the hearing suspect.

“We continue to see conversations about Theophymo and Richardson Hitchins. It’s obvious that Richardson is with us and I just have a profound conversation about that fight,” Eddie said IFL TV O United conflict between IBF lightweight Welter Velter Champion Richardson Hitcrins and Vbo Champ Teofimo Lopez.

“We’re fine for that. It’s a great fight. At the same time, that job has to be done. Richardson has just won the world’s title? Do you want to jump into that fight? If the agreement is right, absolutely. If (Lopez) does not fight Hitchins Richardson or get unification, it will not be allowed to fight anyone else (if he wants to keep his VBO 140-lb title.) He will have to fight the winner of this fight ( Jack Catterlal v. Arnold Barbose Jr).

“If he fights Richardson, I think Richardson won,” hearing said in his belief that Hitchins would beat theophy. “If not, I think it will go upward and fight your boots. I think the winner of this fight is a very good champion. You never want it. This is a struggle that is Distance of the world championship. It is for temporary (VBO). I think the winner of this fight will only be a massive struggle in the division. “

Theofimo will not fight the winner this Saturday of the fight between # 1 Vbo Arnold Barboza Jr. And # 2 Jack Catterall.

Thus, the three options for Theofimo are as follows:

1. Richardson Hitchins – Unification at 140
2. Monday Return for the winner of Katterla-Barboza Jr.
3. WALL VBO belt

Theophyo will not take a risky struggle for low money against Chatrius or Barbose Jr. Because it would be hard matches and not ppv-worthy.
