PREPARATION TO REMAIN A CHAMPION

The world champion catracho has been preparing for the fight for two months, but the sparring part he will do with his manager and father is missing, a few weeks before the fight: ”Lomachenko has many weaknesses, his last opponents have already shown us the way to try to defeat him and thus winning the scepter in the four divisions, as has been our goal from the beginning, we watch his videos and apply our own strategies to defeat the Ukrainian ”.

Teofimo López Sr. assured that his son’s fight against the Ukrainian Lomachenko will be in September.

The Honduran fighter barely has 15 fights won, 12 of them by knockout, but he has had a rapid rise, since just 22 years old he was already an Olympic athlete at the Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games, proudly representing Honduras, despite that he was born in Brooklyn, New York: “my son loves Honduras, we carried the world champion scepter to share with our countrymen, unfortunately the flights were canceled due to the coronavirus, but now we hope to do it after the next fight, where we hope not only to carry one but the four champion belts ”.
