Teofimo Lopez Jr. and George Kambosos Jr. Engage in Fiery Exchange Over Rematch Talks on Social Media"
Teofimo Lopez Jr. and George Kambosos Jr. are not holding back in their social media feud, throwing jabs at each other over a potential rematch. The tension between the two fighters is palpable, with Lopez keen on avenging his loss to Kambosos in a split decision back in November 2021.
Lopez, hailing from Brooklyn, New York, has been vocal about his desire for a rematch but claims that Kambosos and Devin Haney are dodging the opportunity to step back into the ring with him. Taking to his social media platform, Lopez called out both fighters for turning down fight offers, daring anyone to verify the claims with his team.
In response, Kambosos, who recently teamed up with Eddie Hearn's Matchroom Boxing, fired back at Lopez, challenging him to come face him if he truly wants a rematch. The banter between the two escalated, with Kambosos questioning Lopez's understanding of the fight game and taunting him about his recent venues for matches.
Despite their verbal sparring, both fighters have seen ups and downs in their careers since their last encounter. Lopez moved up in weight and secured the WBO junior welterweight belt, defending it successfully in three bouts. On the other hand, Kambosos faced setbacks against Haney before bouncing back with a victory over Maxi Hughes and a loss to Vasiliy Lomachenko.
The rivalry between Lopez and Kambosos shows no signs of cooling off, with Kambosos daring Lopez to come find him for a rematch, throwing shade at their previous interactions, and boasting about his past victories. The battle of words between these two fighters is heating up, setting the stage for a potential showdown in the ring.
