INCREDIBLE: Barber Carves Teofimo Lopez on a Fan’s Head

Out of all the divisions present in boxing, the lightweight roster is filled with extremely talented boxers. These are fighters undefeated and are set to rule the scene at 135 pounds for a long time. However, among them, one pugilist has captured the attention of fans all over. That is ‘The Takeover’ Teofimo Lopez.

The Brooklyn native is just 23, but he has risen to stardom. His unparalleled skill sets have made him a household name of the sport. He’s far from hanging his gloves, but his fans have already cemented him as a legend.

Recently, a barber named Miquel Quad shared a video on his Instagram. In the clip, he was seen using a clipper to etch Teofimo Lopez’s face on a fans’ head. This video blew the internet and attracted significant attention from the boxing community.

He captioned the video, “@teofimolopez is a monster! 4 belts and coming for more! Y’all don’t want that smoke.”

Lopez has turned into a fan favorite fighter since a daunting performance in his last bout against Vasyl Lomachenko. That said, the ‘Takeover’ also won The Ring magazine fighter of the year for this fight. He also became a unified lightweight champion that night, making a prolific statement.

Furthermore, he has a potent game plan to become the undisputed lightweight champion.

Teofimo Lopez – the best lightweight boxer at present?

The ‘Takeover‘ debuted in 2016 and hasn’t looked back since then. With his sound techniques, fight IQ, and ferocious power, Lopez has vanquished every opponent in his path to the top. He bagged his first lightweight gold by beating the Ghanian, Richard Commey. It took less than 6 minutes for him to dispatch Commey and claim the IBF belt.

Keeping his run active in the division, he then took a fight against Lomachenko and the world witnessed what he pulled off there. Reaching the top was tough, but staying there is even tougher and Lopez will have to pull this off successfully to continue being regarded as a legend.

‘The Takeover’ will have to defend his belt against both mandatory challengers, as well as fellow lightweight champions who will seek undisputed and unified title fights.

Lopez is undeniably in his prime, and if he dismantles some rugged lightweights like Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney, or Gervonta Davis, his path to greatness will be all but assured and many more fans may carve his image on their head.
