Triller Moves Forward With October 16 Show At Barclays - Without Lopez-Kambosos . 18 hours ago
Soooo
The exact order of fights is not yet set, though expected to be formally announced in the next couple of days. One absolute is the exclusion of its centerpiece attraction, as Triller has given up on proceeding with Lopez-Kambosos.
The company is not entirely out of the Lopez business, however. In an eight-page complaint filed with the IBF—a copy of which has been obtained by BoxingScene.com—Triller has called for Australia’s Kambosos (19-0, 10KOs) to be removed from the sanctioning body’s mandatory position, which would permit Lopez to face the next available challenger. Mexico City’s Isaac Cruz (22-1-1, 15KOs) is currently the next highest ranked challenger, followed by Argentina’s Gustavo Lemos, former featherweight titlist Lee Selby (whom Kambosos beat last Halloween to become the mandatory challenger) and previous Lopez foes Richard Commey and Vasiliy Lomachenko.
In addition to requesting the removal of Kambosos, Triller has also called for the IBF to release the 20% deposit—more than $1,200,000—that Triller was required to place in escrow in securing the rights to the fight. Triller won a February 25 purse bid by submitting an offer of $6,018,000, far outpacing Matchroom Boxing ($3,506,000) and Top Rank ($2,315,000)—Lopez’s career-long promoter. Lopez was due 65% of the winning bid, translating to a career-high $3,911,700, far more than his combined paydays in title wins over Commey and Lomachenko. Kambosos’ remaining 35% cut was $2,106,300, reportedly at least ten times more than he has made for any fight to date
Soooo

LWO
What a fukkin disaster smh
Yikes
An absolute comedy of errors. That money is probably already spent.
Foul ass Bob probably willing to front him for the cost of his never ending loyalty and deference, though.
Why is Teo so afraid of Haney? He acts like he wants Josh Taylor more than anybody but Josh wants a huge payday with Crawford.

Do Better.
