“You Did Your Thing Tonight”: Terence Crawford, Amanda Serrano, and Claressa Shields Join the Boxing World in Congratulating Teofimo Lopez for a Sensational Victory Against Josh Taylor

After Teofimo Lopez fought Sandor Martin last year following two arthroscopic surgeries, ‘The Takeover’ was spotted doubting his abilities inside the ring. Quite surprisingly, the 25-year-old asked his teammates if he still got it. Although Lopez out-boxed Martin in all three categories (body, jab, and power) in terms of punches landed, he was only able to score 24.8% of the total strikes he attempted that night.

Due to this graze on his accuracy, Lopez, returning from two surgeries, wondered if he still had a future in boxing. With his latest victory over Josh Taylor, Lopez made a statement out of Madison Square Garden in New York. Landing over 30% of his punches, the 25-year-old secured himself a UD win and said, “Are you there entertained? I’m just warming up. Hey, do I still got it?”

Following the Martin fight as Lopez doubted himself, Amanda Serrano was of the opinion that ‘The Takeover’ should retire from the sport.

Likewise, Regis Prograis congratulated Lopez. He wrote, “Congratulations @TeofimoLopez you did your thing tonight.”

Meanwhile, referring to Lopez’s affinity with backflips, Terence Crawford said, “Teo bout to be flipping.”

Meanwhile, Leonard Ellerbe mentioned what Lopez Sr. would potentially do following his son’s impressive win inside MSG. “Sr is going to be off the chain in the post😂😂,” he wrote.

Ahead of the fight with Taylor, Teofimo Lopez Sr. declared that his son would break Taylor down in the ring. Additionally, he promised Lopez would fight Devin Haney if he was offered $20 Million for the fight. Now that Lopez has defeated Taylor, one cannot help but wonder when he would lock horns with Haney.
