    Teofimo has always been confident but he has a good head on his shoulders. His father Sr. on the other hand is what has always gave him a bad reputation. One loss doesn’t make anyone career over. It’s what you do after.

      @I 10 Very true. He was delusional about that Kambosos lost and repeated it over and over like there was some conspiracy. Turned off quite a few but if you didn't follow it and just watched this, I can see why people feel the way. I'm happy he's in a good place and wish him well and good health. Doesn't change what he said in the past though.
