TEOFIMO LOPEZ is seemingly taking charge of his own career after a fall-out with Top Rank and Triller bidding a whopping fee to secure his next outing.

Alex Steedman and Matt Christie explore the development and wonder if Triller can really become big players in a developing market. Does this mark the beginning of the end for fighters being tied to promoters in the long term or is this just another overly ambitious new kid on the block?

Canelo Alvarez’s thrashing of Avni Yildirim was expected but in reality did it do the sport any favours?

Joe Calzaghe’s masterful drubbing of Jeff Lacy is remembered In This Week In History and the superb Teddy Atlas biography, From The Streets To The Ring, is this week’s book.
