Teofimo Lopez vs. Gervonta Davis Sparring | "The young lions have grown so now lets make the fight"

#Teofimo #Lopez vs. Gervonta #Davis Sparring | "The young lions have grown so now lets make the fight" says Schaub Zac from LTM By the end of October, the lightweight division has witnessed two blockbuster boxing matches, which ultimately sees two young fighters potentially meet! First, Teofimo Lopez did what many others have failed at by stopping pound-for-pound great Vasyl Lomachenko to be crowned an undisputed champion. Then, on Halloween, Gervonta Davis knocked out Leo Santa Cruz, taking his super-featherweight title. It could well lead to two of the brightest stars in the game meeting later down the line in a huge unification bout, with Lopez and Davis tipped to be the next marquee names in the sport. Although the Baltimore-native started is career three years before ‘El Brooklyn’ entered the paid ranks, Lopez has taken to the pro game with consummate ease and poses a genuine threat to Lomachenko’s reign. But how might a fight between him and Davis look? If the footage above is anything to go by, it would be electric. Teofimo Lopez Sr uploaded footage of his son sparring with Davis as teenagers – before either had made their pro debut. The sparring session, which saw both men don protective headgear, threw heavy leather throughout the session and it was more like watching violent chess. A tactical battle throughout, both men gave as good as they got and it will surely be replayed plenty of times in the build-up to their seemingly inevitable fight. Davis, who has earned the nicknames ‘Mini Mike Tyson’ and ‘Tank’ for his ferocious knockout power, watched Lopez’s knockout of Richard Commey for the IBF title in December with genuine intrigue. “He’s a good fighter. I believe that he’s got skills and things like that,” the 25-year-old told Schaub from LTM . Lets make all the big fights happen says Schaub Zac
