Teofimo Lopez posted a mysterious message saying he was going “Continue to go up the ladder”,” Talk about his career in boxing. He mentioned his ladder up “Let’Em Madder.” He refers to those who want to see him fail and be jealous of success. Teo wants to prove that people are wrong.
Lopez (22-1, 13 KO) and Shakur Stevenson talked about possible fights on social media last week. The matching between them will be huge and huge on PPV. Teofimo has the ability to sell combat through trash talks, and it can do a great job on DAZN. If a fight occurs, it will be “climbing up the ladder”.
Fighting Shakur will not involve Lopez winning another world title, as he doesn’t return to the 135-pound division at this point in his career. He rose 140 pounds in 2022 due to efforts to make the lightweight limit effort. If the fight happens, Teofimo will defend his WBO light middleweight title against Stevenson.
Keep climbing up the ladder, they go crazy, make ’em madder⛳️

“They went crazy, making the ’em madder’ part can be seen as his verbal shot at Turki Alalshikh,” Lopez said. Teofimo said on social media in late May last year that he was “fired” by Turki, meaning he would not be included in his activities.
So Teofimo’s mysterious post is his subtle way of digging for those who hope to fail. He hopes they know he will stay healthy, achieve more, make money and irritate them. If Teo is right about being fired by him, it may include Turki Alalshikh. Before deleting the post, Teofimo called Turki “D *** Tator” on social media.
