Round 12 last night...

[Rick Taylor]

Did anyone else think that Loma was actually in danger of getting dropped in the 12th last night? I was starting to think it might happen. Loma knew he had to make up ground so he started taking risks and it looked to me like Lopez was close to dropping him

lomo looked like he could get dropped a few times last night tbh

This thread has it right. During the eleventh and twelfth round, Loma had to come hard... That meant he had to trade with Lopez. Lopez was told to "box" and did so during the eleventh. His heart was not in it... and you could see he objected vehemently to sticking and moving and getting hit in the face by Loma... he was never in any danger of getting damaged, Loma could not set on his shots...

Anyway I think Lopez said "fvk it" and thats when the twelfth round happened. He did not listen to his corner and when Loma came in he almost dropped Loma. In a rematch Loma is dropped.

Loma with that strategic Hopkins-esque headbutt.

saved his life

[IronDanHamza]

He got absolutely battered in round 12.

With more experience Lopez could have stopped him late.

Take of the fight

Teo out working Loma

[SplitSecond]

Lopez caught him with a left hook near the end of the rd. Lomachenko was buzzed, but he wasn’t close to going down, let alone be stopped. Some of you getting too caught up because one guy was muscling the other.

Lomachenko started far too late, let Lopez still have strength that late in the fight. 12th was a good even round to be honest. Don’t see how Lopez dominated it or put a beating on Lomachenko while he was eating conbo’s and getting his head snapped back too in those 3 mins. Lopez had that bodyshot and left hook though.

[TheMyspaceDayz]

Agree with those saying the break to check the cut may have saved Loma from a knockdown. What a foolish time to check if someone’s cut is okay. Fight is practically over and Lopez has all the momentum. Let it bleed.

What a statement though.
Forget the bullshit scorecards for a second. Lopez lost the 11th clearly and knew He had to come out big for the 12th. Ignored his fathers orders to box and went right after Loma. Closed like a champ.

Absolutely.

There are some posters here who actually think that was a close round and scored it for Lomachenko. I don't know what they were watching, Teofimo was hurting him repeatedly and it did look like a knockdown was close.
