Teofimo Lopez is making his comeback to the ring and showed off his power and size in a training video posed to Twitter.

The video is captioned:

"140 is about to get real scary."

Lopez has a record of 16-1, with 12 of his wins coming by knockout. The footage shows Lopez's scary power, putting the entire division on notice as he prepares for his fight on August 13th against Pedro Campa.

This will be Lopez's first time back in the ring since his first professional loss against George Kambosos Jr. in November 2021, in which he lost the WBA, IBF, WBO, and The Ring Lightweight Titles. Prior to the loss, Lopez fought names including Vasiliy Lomachenko, Richard Commey, Masayoshi Nakatani, Edis Tatli, Mason Menard, William Silva, and Vitor Jones Sanchez.

Now moving up to 140, Lopez will face a new set of challengers as he makes his way back into title contention.
