Teofimo Lopez ended January 2026 with his championship dreams in tatters, as he was dethroned from the summit by Shakur Stevenson in New York City.
The Brooklyn-born star lost the WBO light-welterweight crown at Madison Square Garden to bring his latest reign as king of the division to a frustrating close.
Now, the ex-title holder will bid to pick himself back up and go again as he seeks to rebuild his reputation as a standout fighter heading into the rest of 2026.
Here's everything you need to know about when Teofimo Lopez will fight next.
Currently, there is no set return date for Teofimo Lopez, following on from his loss to Shakur Stevenson at The Ring 6 in January 2026, in a major title clash.
The star was comprehensively outclassed by his opponent in a difficult performance, and will need time to consider where his future lies and in what division.
It will be expected that Lopez will seek to book another fight before the halfway point of the year, as he bids to mount a comeback from just a second career reverse.
