Teofimo Lopez enjoyed BY FAR his best round of the fight in the 8th. Shakur Stevenson appeared to take a breather after piling up rounds through seven. Lopez connected to the body with consistency for the first time on the night and also scored with his right hand upstairs. Stevenson has stood directly in front of Lopez for most of the night and largely relied on angles and head movement to avoid the incoming. He employed lateral movement for the first time late in the round.
