Ryan Garcia is tired of the buffoonery of Teofimo Lopez.
The tensions broke out between the two star boxers at the Tuesday press conference in New York before the triple-header blockbuster for May 2 in Times Square. Garcia confronts Rolando Romero in the main event of the show, while Devin Haney and Lopez compete on the sub-card against Jose Ramirez and Arnold Barboza Jr., respectively. However, even if Garcia and Lopez do not fight, the duo may have shared more warmth than anyone on the platform during Tuesday procedures.
“We do not give AF ***,” said a frustrated Garcia in Lopez Midway halfway through one of the many moments of self-assessment of Lopez. “We don’t give you that you are, Bro.
“I am tired of hearing this S ***. We do not give AF ***, we will run that (fight) too. I promise that I will reach you.
“You are so boring,” Riposte Lopez. “You are talking so politely. It’s crazy. You speak so politely, guy. What is it?”
“We are going to do this. Do not forget that, we will do this, 100%” has repeated Garcia.
Despite Garcia’s promises, a fight against Lopez is not in the immediate plans. If Garcia Bat Romero and Haney exceeds Ramirez in May, the two rivals Garcia and Haney should participate in long -awaited and highly awaited revenge in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Aside from the Garcia vs Lopez Flare-Up, Tuesday’s press conference was not as stormy as many, despite the garbage talkers, Garcia, Haney, Lopez and Romero, a few meters from the other. Lopez was the one who found himself in the center of most of the highlights of the day.
Lopez and Barboza came face to face before the press conference for an intense Stardedown, and they continued where they stopped later, Barboza wondered why it took so long to make a fight between them despite the two fighters who compete under the upper banner for years before Barboza left the promotion company in 2023.
“He has 32-0, he has just obtained an interim world title,” said Lopez about Barboza. “At 15 fights, I obtained my first world title and I won it at Madison Square Garden, then I became indisputable at 16 fights. I am only 27 years old.”
“You did not give the right answer, my brother,” replied Barboza. “You beat the bush when they said,” How is it that you did not accept this fight at the time? “”
“To be real, I have never had your sight,” said Lopez.
“Shout in the front row to cut the umbilical cord and let your ass crawl, finally,” continued a fired barboza. “You want wolf and talk as if you were big and bad, fighting an injured” Loma “(Vasiliy Lomachenko) and a (Josh) Taylor injured, bro.”
“It’s a crazy conversation,” replied Lopez.
Lopez also took the time to get involved in a back and forth with the champion of the IBF Super Léger Richardson Hitchins, who is not on the map but expressed his desire to face the WBO Lopez champion in a unification fight.

“What are you working on?” Lopez asked Hitchins.
“You don’t even send any offer,” said Hitchins. “I’m here, guy. Yo, take care of business.”
“Where’s your belt?
“Teo said we then,” said Hitchins to the media surrounding the pair. “You look a little nervous.”
