Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez Gets Off The Floor To Secure Split Decision Over Sandor Martin

Yeah thought the same. Was funny to observe. Wish he had gone a bit more in attacking mode, even though he kind of neutralised Lopez. Close score card IMO. Had Martin by 1-2 rounds. But still

I had it the same Junker. Lopez was gifted this fight.

I should have suspected something was up when two of those judges were giving Lopez fight advice during rounds.

That's a joke folks, but not as big a joke as the decision in Lopez's favor.

Lopez fell off bad.

I’m surprised at the one-sided comments by boxing fans here about robbery. Really? Check the compubox stats. They don’t lie. Regardless of who you were backing. Lopez was a clear winner but not by a huge margin. He was the effective aggressor, controlled the space, threw more punches and landed more but had to chase Martin all night long. Martin is a spoiler, period. No one is going to look good against him. The knockdown is unfortunate. Teo was leaning in and forward and in that off-balance position, got clipped.

Incidentally, I was shocked Martin beat Mikey. That was almost akin to Bivol beating Canelo and then going on to bearing Ramirez. These tricky, skilful boxer-types are always a handful except Martin doesn’t have Bivol’s work rate/punch output.

That said, while a fan of Lopez, I am not sure he dominates at this weight class.

Sandor Martin is a bozo clown that needs to get his teeth fixed haha.. embarrassment running around like he won the fight when he refused to actually throw ya know actual PUNCHES!!! LOL

Im not a big fan of Lopez, but he deserved the win. Its unfair to downgrade him because he didnt meet expectations. He outlanded, and in most rounds landed better than Martin.

Martin was slick, and had some good counters, but just because he was able to move, and stylistically fight the fight he wanted, doesnt negate Lopez actually landing more and better punches in most rounds

Hmmmmm

[A.B Counterhooks]

Something aint right bout this Teo, seems hes losing his mojo or having some sort issue ,not same lopez who beat loma

I had Lopez winning by a round or two. I was watching and wondering what fight the announcers were watching.

97-92 despite the KD?? Terrible score. Lopez got the gift decision but lost standing as a major force at 140. Martin is a tricky opponent for anyone but it's clear Lopez is unable to make adjustments.
