De la Hoya praises Teofimo what the “runner” has avoided Haney after unsuccessful negotiations on the fight

The Oscar de la Hoya promoter was in the consequences of Teofimo Lopez vs. Devin Haney, today he failed to negotiate, saying that Teofimo was “smart” to decide not to “fight with a runner ” Like Devin. Earlier today, it was discovered that Teofimo (22-1, 13 ko) had taken negotiations to fight Haney on August 16 in Saudi Arabia.

From Hoya’s back Lopez

It is not a reason for Lopez’s decision not to lead the fight, but the fans are superior to believe that he has become cold feet in the fight against Haney (32-0, 15 ko). They say Teo is a “duck”.

Hany replied de la hoya, “What is your obsession with me?”

Promoter Golden Boy de la Hoya, with whom Teofimo is not signed, has decided to get involved in the debate of Haney, marking him with a “runner” with “fewer fans than Diddy does.”

He is not directly involved in the fight: neither Teofimo Lopez nor Devin Haney are currently signed with the Golden Boy promotions. De la Hoya, as head of Golden Boy, has no direct promotional stake in this concrete fight or does not happen.

Earlier this week, de la Hoya posted a call for theophimo on X Sign with him, saying, “If you have no promoter, call me. I can give you advice to take care of your best interests. Let’s do you a PPV star as you deserve.”

Oscar’s self -sufficient move

Obviously, Decision De La Hoya to come to Lopez’s defense today It seems self -employed For he makes him well showing that he was on himself praising him for not fighting Haney.

It would be interesting to know why Teofimo decided not to go through the fight against Haney, because he would pay it well. They would have a head of 145 pounds in Riyadh on PPV. The attention that Lopez would receive would be huge, and that would help in his career.
