Lopez wasn’t hurt or wobbled at any point and Lomachenko was no where close to “pulling it off”
He was soundly beatenComment

My thoughts on the overall fight, Lomachenko got scared in the first half. He wasn’t Lomachenko. He wasn’t caught by anything real big or damaging. But he fought super defensive because he felt Temo’s power early on. He wanted to take him into deeper waters. Lomachenko made a fight out of it, but it was too little too late and the last round was a huge round for Lopez. Solid win for Lopez.
Lomachenko had never looked real lights out impressive at 135. His best will always be at featherweight, or super featherweight. He just doesn’t have the firepower at lightweight to keep elite boxer on their toes.Comment

He def looked small tonight to me compared with Lopez. If it was visually noticeable it had to be 10lbs or so. Might do better at 130.
The highlights were egregious in some rounds. Showing the only punch Loma landed in a round he lost. Smh.
The commentary wasn't horrendous overall. Ward I felt had about as generous a Loma card as could be defended. But Bradley kept them in check and gave Lopez credit throughout the fight.
I thought Loma was going to win before the fight and thought that even that he was behind he was going to bring the heat drop or stop Lopez. In the twelve round Loma got pummeledComment

Um ok. Just because you say this doesn’t make it true. Even Bradley was saying that López needed to bite down for this exact reason.Comment

I say start at round 3 or 4, I understand why he started super slow but it shouldn’t have been that slow!
His late start was also because it’s a boxing rule of thumb that punchers are more deadly early in the fight and their power weakens later on!
Teofimo’s defense leaves much to be desired, he had no answers to Loma’s pressure and only could clinch or push off with the forearm!
But like I said, let’s see undisputed with Lopez vs HaneyComment
