    Richard Commey will defend his IBF lightweight title against the highly touted Teofimo Lopez on Dec. 14 at Madison Square Garden in New York, the two sides announced Wednesday.

    Todd duBoef, the president of Top Rank, which promotes Lopez, and Lou DiBella, who promotes Commey, confirmed the fight was finalized. It will be broadcast on ESPN.
