Who is Teofimo Lopez? Fight record, stats, next bout and more
Teofimo Lopez successfully retained his WBO light welterweight title against Arnold Barboza Jr. at Times Square to kick off May in style as he chases bigger fights.
The American ended his near-year-long wait to return to the ring with one of the better performances at The Ring's Fatal Fury supercard in New York City.
Victory against a challenger who upset Jack Catterall - arguably the division's top operator without a title - paves the way for a potential unification dance next.
