There's no chance that Lomachenko is going to fight Lopez without an audience unless both fighters are willing to take a serious purse cut. The gate is one of the biggest revenue streams for prize fighters like Loma, and although online streams will likely make up for it somewhat, I doubt it will cover the loss.

Or unless their managers or boxing promoters are willing to take the chance to also have their profit cut in half.

Everyone wants to fight Loma simply because it's a money fight, not sure Teofimo will want it given that he's not going to rack up as much cash as he would if he just delays it a few months.

He is the cash cow right now in the lower weights division.

I think Loma will probably fight some scrub whose willing to take a smaller payday just to get rekt in front of no audience, and then they'll build up the hype for the Lopez fight for Q4 2020 or Q1 2021.

Loma is going to make a mockery of Lopez, but he does still have a punchers chance.

We will see, but I agree that he will toy with this kid.

When it comes to skill and punching power then i can say "Loma all the way" and i agree into your points that there would be lots of things to be first considered before this match would be finalized.
They are much pretty aware on that purse cut since we are on the different set-up of things due to pandemic and one is that having no audience on where these events do milk out money the most.
Odds for lopez shown above isnt bad either and i might consider on putting up some pennies with the guy. Upsets can indeed happen from time to time but it is unlikely to happen in this fight!

There's not final set up yet.
...
So it will be decided first if there will be crowd, but if the fight will be held in the US, I doubt it will be allowed.
Yeah, but the paragraph below it, Arum -the manly alpha male- said:
But we all know that technical Loma is, and I would agree that he is one of the best technical boxers we have witnessed in the last 10 years.
I can't recall fighters QUIT other than the De La Hoya vs Pacquiao fight. Well, the Golden Boy had been turned into Chinese when that happened, so it didn't count.

But Loma made four fighters QUIT (RTD).

i am going with NO MAS.
Me too!

Looks like the kid has some power, but I know Loma is really good but I think taking chances is not bad as upset happens in boxing.
If it was any other fighter i would like to take the underdog but it is Vasyl Lomachenko and his skills says it all, anyone can be knocked out but to defeat him without cheating is impossible unless he gets a freak injury during the fight, Teófimo López is a knockout fighter himself and the way in which he won the IBF lightweight title was impressive but i am going with NO MAS.

I just check now if the betting odds are already available, but unfortunately it's not listed i my sportbook, maybe they are waiting to finalize the venue first before the odds will be live. Anyway, just share the odds guys if you find a book that's offering this fight already.

It will likely to come out after the venue is finalized if there's one of the fights that you wished boxing fans should not happen in the time of Pandemic is this fight Lomachecko against Lopez it's a unification bout between two great lightweight champions and they both have contrasting style, the outcome will be interesting and fans want to be close to the fight when it happen but unfortunately they can't.

Maybe not yet available in sportsbook now but we already have that odds before, here's an article from https://www.oddsshark.com/ posted last January this year. https://www.oddsshark.com/boxing/lomachenko-lopez-odds-analysis



As you can see,  it's just a prediction of odds and you can also read their prediction on who will win.

Thanks for sharing the possible odds man, that odds of Teofimo Lopez seems very interesting, for an underdog, I believe there's a good value on it since this guy is younger and might give some good challenge to the champion.

I checked his record - https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/776269..

Good, Lopez has been calling out Lomachenko so this his the fight that he wanted and so be it.But we all know that technical Loma is, and I would agree that he is one of the best technical boxers we have witnessed in the last 10 years. I say he will still be the favourite despite Lopez being an upcoming and very young prospect. And it will be another big test for Loma to show his boxing skills again cementing him as p4p.

There's not final set up yet.

According to what mu_enrico shared, in the article it says.

There is still plenty that needs to be worked out regarding the fight, including where it will occur and whether fans will be able to attend.

So it will be decided first if there will be crowd, but if the fight will be held in the US, I doubt it will be allowed.

Looks like these two will agree a fight date shortly;

https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-sports/2876402-lomachenko-lopez-to-agree-on-fight-by-end-of-next-week.html

Some places are already listing it as May 20, 2020. Not sure if this is official yet.

It's a new article so probably this is the latest update, and hopefully this is the final date so fans would stop speculating.
With this, we can expect that we will see a great fight as it gives both fighters an ample time to prepare and be on their best fit going to this fight.

Well... perhaps I went a bit overboard. I agree that Lomachenko can't be compared to boxers such as Pacquiao and Klitschko.
Now those are the real legendaries Cheesy. I just feel bad for Klitschko because I can feel that he is now near on the sunset of his career Sad.
The message that I wanted to convey is that Lopez should show some respect to Lomachenko. He is much more experienced than him, and he has more achievements to his name. And no one is going to misinterpret the respect shown towards the rival as a sign of weakness.  
Well we can do nothing with regards to that aspect mate, this thing depends to themselves. It's up to whether they like to treat their opponents properly or not, we can't please them to behave like a child. I guess what we can do is to trust how karma works Smiley for sure they will realize their bad deeds in the end. Maybe a single, two or three losses won't change them but for sure in the end of time, they will.  
Don't be too bothered about any shit talk outside the ring because the real talks happen inside the right, besides after this fight, the shit talks will be gone unless this ends up a close decision in the judges scorecard and one is aiming for a rematch, actually, shit talks does adds more value to a fight as its been an effective way of marketing.

Date:  TBA
Venue: TBA

The unification fight between Loma and Lopes is sure to take place, they are just finalizing the date and the venue.
Loma will once again be tested with this young and taller Lopez.

Bob Arum quoted,
Quote
“Lomachenko is fighting Lopez, that is done. Now the question is the site of the fight. We have Madison Square Garden bidding against Barclays in Brooklyn and we are also getting a bid from Saudi Arabia to do that fight,” Arum stated.

Odds for this fight is not out as there is no final date of the fight yet.

What do you think of this fight guys?

As far as I know, the fight between that two boxers may take place in the U.S on May 30.
This is the awaited fight for me because I want to watch again to fight Teofimo Lopez, its been too long since I've watched his last match with a 32 years old Richard Commey last year of December 14, after that fight, Lomachenko Vasyl joined him in the ring and took some photo with Lopez, and doing that thing is such an excellent sport characteristic of a boxer. Teofimo Lopez has a record of (15-0, 12 KO) and that standing is so fantastic he is still undefeated, let's see if he can maintain that standing until the end. However, we can't underestimate a 31-year-old Lomachenko Vasyl (14-1, 10 KO) because, as of his age, he is a great boxer too with his ability to maintain his balance while having excellent footwork while fighting. Well, let us see what will happen, does the undefeated Teofimo Lopez would be still undefeated or Lomachenko Vasyl will break that unbeaten record.

OK.. I understand that the fight needs promotion and perhaps that's the reason why Teofimo Lopez went on with his verbal tirade against Loma. But it doesn't leave a good taste, especially if the attack is directed at a legendary player.
Legendary? Don't be hasty dude Grin. Don't get me wrong, Lomachenko is one of the best in his division but saying that he's a legendary already is too much. He still young and there's a lot of of things he must achieve first before getting proclaimed as one of the greatest Smiley.
And I have seen similar incidents in the past as well. And every single time, I have seen the individual who begins this verbal attack losing the fight (not just in boxing, but with MMA as well).
Yeah! Sometimes the humble fighters win in the end simply because the focus is there. Their presence of mind in the fight are intact (unless they're ill-tempered) unlike to those players who keep on taunting their opponents. But let's admit, getting cocky sometimes works but not all the time of course (e.g. Mayorga and McGregor) Grin.

I consider Vasyl Lomachenko the best boxer and have a superior technique and to promote the fight Teofimo Lopez is talking big fight plans on retiring a 31 year old boxer, either way i am expecting the best performance from the technician Vasyl Lomachenko and i wont be surprised if he schools the young Lopez as he have done to many world class fighters in the past.
We will see, but this fight looks like a good match up for both as they are both undefeated and basically knock out artists.
I haven't seen a good fight for Loma for awhile and although this guy is really exciting to watch but at least sometimes I also like to see him struggle a bit.
