^^ Right, so even if Lopez moves up to 140 already, we have someone trying to get into the picture and put his name around those established boxers in the lightweight.
So we will see how he will adjust to it, maybe he can challenge for the belt because guess what? Shakur is with Top Rank as well so it's a win win situation for him to get into this weight class ASAP because Haney is also on the same stable and so is Loma.
Yes, we can't really take the fact that Teofimo Lopez made a good run in the lightweight and it's actually good that he decided much earlier that lightweight isn't for him that's why he moved-up in the next division. Now the stars are getting stacked at 135 pounds trying to get their way through the ranks with of course the new additional, Shakur Stevenson. Although we can't do anything towards Shakur's situation but it's really unfortunate that he can't even defend his belt for the last time against Robson.
