Teofimo Lopez vs Arnold Barboza Jr Prediction
Ryan Garcia’s next fight of course takes place on this historic night of boxing in Times Square, but it is one of the undercard fights prior to the Teofimo Lopez vs Arnold Barboza Jr main event.
It is clear to see that ‘The Takeover’ is a favourite with US sportsbooks, but Barboza Jr is coming into this bout fresh off the back of a career-best performance against Jack Catterall in February.
Despite being an underdog, there will be a lot of Barboza Jr backers here. If he can frustrate Lopez and make him fight his own fight, he has every chance of being victorious.
That being said, Lopez seems to rise to the occasion when he is being doubted. Yes, he is inconsistent, but when he’s at his best, he is without a doubt the best super-lightweight in the world.
Expect a cagey affair in the open stages before Teofimo Lopes begins to take control and gets the better of Arnold Barboza Jr.
