Undefeated Theophilus Kpakpo Allotey popularly called Theo Lopez is rising  rapidly as he now moves up to third in the latest IBF Intercontinental junior bantamweight rankings and ever closer to breaking into the World rankings.

After missing the SWAG Professional boxer of the year, he is not perturbed, but focused and training harder to face the best of the best in his weight class.

Currently he holds the national Super flyweight, UBO Super flyweight and WBO Africa Bantamweight titles which puts him at 15^th in the world.

His coach and manager, Dr. Ofori Asare says they are on track as they move steadily towards the big world titles.

He told Yours Truly they want all the titles to become undisputed.   

According to Dr. Asare, Theo Lopez is a project which the government of Ghana must support to realise his goal.

He urged companies to invest in Ghana’s next world champion, because he has all the qualities and capabilities as well as experience to become a world champion.

Theo Allotey was a great amateur boxer who represented Ghana at the African Games and Olympic Games Qualifiers.

For the past four months he led the Boxing Ghana Top 10 Pound for Pound ratings.
