Teofimo Lopez has made a vulgar boast about being able to legally get away with murder in the ring.
Lopez, 25, made the comments ahead of his world title fight against Josh Taylor on June 10 in New York. The boast is similar to what former heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder said in 2018 about wanting "a body on his record" and fans have been quick to criticise Lopez for the claim.
Whilst Lopez's father and coach was previewing his son's upcoming fight against Taylor, the 25-year-old bumped in by saying: "One thing is I love about my sport is I can kill a guy and get away with it, so it's cool. Don't edit it. God gave me another chance at life so they could finish off what they thought they started," he told Punsh Drunk Boxing.
