Oscar de la Hoya offered Teofimo Lopez to come to the ship and join Golden Boyu if there are no more promoters. De La Hoya says he wants to turn a champion with two divisions Teofimo into a “PPV Star”.
Yesterday, Teofimo (22-1, 13 ko) publicly apologized to Turki Alalshikh on X for the offensive remarks he presented about him on the social media, calling him a “bitch”. There was no answer yet. If Teo can patch things with Turks, he may not need de la Hoya. He can make big money by fighting Alalshikh’s tickets to the season in Riyadh against Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia.
Homophobic Cross line remarks
With some comments that Lopez gave about the Turks, it is doubtful that his apology will be accepted. He crossed the line with homophobic things.
Theophimo did not look particularly impressive defense against Arnold Barboz Jr. -a on Times Square Card on May 2. In New York. He won the fight with a unanimous decision against the JR Barboz, but that was a lot of boring movement. Some fans enjoyed watching Teofimo withdrawing around the ring, but most of those who loved action considered him unworthy to be on PPV.
@Teofimolopez Brother if you don’t have a promoter, call me. I can give you advice and take care of your best interest. Let’s make you a PPV star as you deserve.

De La Hoya will not be able to artificially keep Teofimo on top unless he can beat the top 140 fighters, such as Gary Antuanne Russell and Richardson Hitchins. Lopez advocates fighting Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis. Fans see this as a sign that he is brings and just tries to get the biggest pay day before his career sinks into oze.
To his excellency @Turki_alshikhI take complete responsibility for my inappropriate words on the ‘X app’.
I apologize publicly; I will have fun with greater respect, humility and professionalism. I send love and light to everyone. Ty 🥊 #Boxing #Makeboxinggreatagain
