Round-by-Round: Vasyl Lomachenko vs. Teofimo Lopez - October 17, 2020

[Evander]

Lopez wins a UD

Did they say 119-109

Well, that sucked for sure. A very close fight.

For sure.
Where the hell did they pull that card from.

[DrDuke]

knew teo would beat him easily

Well, it didn't looked that easy.

Well, it didn't looked that easy.

That wasn't remotely easy.

I had it 115-113 Lopez. Loma started too late. Only has himself to blame.

[margaret thatcher]

it's like doing a brisk walk, sure, there are easier things, but it's still not much of a challenge

I had it 116-113 Lopez, I think long layoff, lopez size, and lomas age caught up with him here tonight, I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch.

[Evander]

Very good fight and the right guy won, but I think we are going do this again at some point in the future.
Overall Lopez clearly had the power, I think Loma should have stepped it up a bit more during the middle rounds.
Mind you, it likely would have made no difference to the 119-109 judges scorecard, appalling judging no way Loma lost by that margin.
Perhaps a 2-3 round Lopez win would have been more appropriate that I could buy.
Oh well what can you do.
Good fight though, very high quality boxing I enjoyed it, we needed a shot in the arm fight like this.
Both boxers fought very well.

[victor-romeo]

@evander I agree great fight, very high level boxing...

No idea what you're talking about

[Fightnight Scores]

Once again.. Another good fight, all Lederman had to do was score it a little closer, but she didn't and now most fans come away from this talking about her scorecard.

Correct! I think given the general consensus that Lopez won by 3 maybe 4 rounds, the card isn't a big issue but it is a shocker. Loma rallied in the second half and won a few, you could even have given him the 1st in a nothing round.
Now fans are talking about this instead of giving Lopez his due on a legitimate great victory!

[margaret thatcher]

then step up your game bruhster

[Ruthless-RKO]

Had to throw nearly 300 punches more.. landed 41 more punches.

[NateJR]

Had to throw nearly 300 punches more.. landed 41 more punches.

A lot of that had to do with the early rounds where Lopez was the only one throwing punches and Loma was in full defensive mode trying to avoid everything.

[Ron C]

This fight reminded me of Jermaine Taylor vs. Bernard Hopkins

[goose 5]

I backed Lopez to win and scored it 115-113 in his favor but I wouldn't argue with a draw.

He didn't win as easily as all the loma deciples thought he would. He outboxed him early and out balled him late.

So after, tonight, Crawford is still my p4p #1

[Finkel]

It's almost as if Arum sounds innocent in all of this and doesn't promote both fighters...
