Eddie Hearn: Ready to discuss Teofimo Lopez vs. Devin HaneyDAZN
An undisputed lightweight champion could finally be settled.

Eddie Hearn hopes to set up an undisputed lightweight championship between Devin Haney and Teofimo Lopez.

Lopez has renegotiated a deal with Top Rank after a disagreement saw the unified 23-year-old American fight under the Triller banner against George Kambosos to defend his titles with his IBF mandatory.

Following that success, Top Rank and Lopez appear to have reconciled, and Hearn suggested that his lightweight champion, WBC regular Devin Haney, could be down to resolve the status of the division’s undisputed championship.

Hearn told the DAZN Boxing Show: “Hopefully that's against Devin Haney, we can make them an offer to do that fight on DAZN. 

“I’ve said before, it could land on ESPN PPV, no problem at all. If they’re open to the fight, we’ll discuss it.”

Lopez has previously claimed to be the undisputed champion by virtue of his WBC ‘franchise’ belt, won from the previous holder of all four of his titles, Ukrainian Vasiliy Lomachenko.
