Former Triple Lightweight World Title Holder Teofimo Lopez Reorganizes Career

JAKARTA - United States boxer, Teofimo Lopez, lost his three lightweight world titles in the last fight. Now, he's trying to get it back.

George Kambosos Jr. won his IBF, WBA Super and WBO titles in November 2021. He had to admit the superiority of Kambosos by losing points.

The defeat not only won the title of the boxer nicknamed The Takeover, but also tarnished the unbeaten record he had cultivated since his professional debut on February 24, 2017.

Now he is ready to re-knit the hope of becoming a world champion in a different class. After previously dropping in the light class, now he will move up to the super light class.

"I've been fighting at light weight since I was a teenager. It's time to go up to class. I will become a better and more explosive boxer," said Lopez, as reported by Antara.

The first step for Lopez is to face the experienced boxer from Mexico, Pedro Campa. "I'm only 25 years old. My best years are in sight. Pedro Campa is the start of a new chapter of my career," he said.

The match against Campa will be played on Saturday, September 13th. The two boxers will meet at Resorts World Las Vegas.
