Then Romero would quickly take issues a bit additional by posting a DM exchanging between De La Hoya and himself, with De La Hoya apparently upset about Romero making enjoyable of him after supposedly providing him massive cash for a struggle.
That should’ve rubbed Teofimo Lopez the fallacious manner as a result of regardless of being a one-time pal of Romero, their relationship seems to have gone a bit chilly now that they’re competing in the identical weight class.
So Lopez decides to answer Romero in precisely the style Romero understands — a focused hit on social media the place he launched footage of him sparring and placing palms on Romero a number of years again.
“Don’t fear (Oscar De La Hoya) if it comes it it I’ll deal with this pretend champ like I didn’t again in 2017,” Lopez would publish because the caption.
Contemplating Romero is the form of particular person who likes to stir the pot, this publish from Lopez will possible solely kick off hostilities between the fighters, which may make for some good banter that can hopefully culminate in a struggle.
