6/10 ESPN: "Ready to Die" Teofimo Lopez vs Josh Taylor (WBO & Ring Magazine Jr Welterweight Championship)

[UpNext]

The judges score cards don't look that bad to me because the first three rounds definitely could have gone either way and Taylor definitively won that 10th round. The only egregious thing I saw was giving Taylor round 6 or 7. I'd have to rewatch those two rounds again.

Scottish fans were so annoying tonight that I almost ended up rooting for Teo, bout a half a dozen got thrown out of my section before the fight was even halfway over. After tonight the Cattaral fight wasn't an aberration, Taylor is good but he's clearly not elite. Begrudgingly give props to Teo, he's now got clear and decisive wins vs both Loma and Taylor, who were #1 at 135 and 140 when he fought em. The Kambosos loss is a stain but those are good scalps on his resume, none of that vacant belt shyt.

I thought Josh won the first 3 rounds and then something happened that turned the tide. Not sure if he was drained or what but he was losing balance a lot. Teofimo hurt him so many times and I really think he could have stopped him, but for some reason Teofimo was.more interested in showing off after a shot was.landed instead of just taking him out. Anyway Josh needs a change. Congrats to Teofimo. It looks like almost all of us were wrong.

Not me lol

 

[IceDragon]

That's basically what happened though

Yes because of Lopez's power and counter punching skill. Loma didn't practically throw the fight like some suggest ( not saying you are tho ). Mans couldn't start fast

Teo beat Loma more clearly...3 years ago when Loma was on top then Haney did...haney struggled with him....Haney punches also dont hold power.... I think that fight will be more of a problem for Haney then Teo if he takes it as his first fight at 140.

Haney is more defensive..he'll be alright

 

[TheNig]

nah bruh you havent watched enough josh taylor to say this...i personally dont like taylor but that dude put in work..ryan garcia is too much of a chicken shyt to do what taylor did

Yeah that's a bit much. No denying that he ran the gauntlet. Ryan Garcia ain't doing that.

Already home (live in Hells Kitchen) but I can’t wait to get at you clowns tomorrow

Had a blast as it was my sons first boxing match (he’s 10 years old).

Underachieving, cherry-picking, marinating fight boys swinging at the air tonight

This dude Teo talking bout retiring. Wtf lol. Just wild

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

Maybe but what we do know Loma had shoulder surgery afterwards. I give Teo the 12th but once Loma started fighting back you could see a clear difference in skill level. I think Loma thought he could stop Teo in the back half of the fight when he started to gas, but Teo has a good tank and solid chin.

 

[NZA]

Yeah he put in work, but he's overrated considering his accomplishments

And being a Terence Crawford fan, it's disgusting to see this CAC get all the bells and whistles with Top Rank/ESPN for being undisputed, when Crawford did it years ago in the same weight class against better opponents with little to no promotion. Glad he got his ass handed to him tonight

i think prograis is a much better win than any of crawford's 140 wins

 

[Derek Lee]

Great win but he still needs to see a psychiatrist.

Just say you haven't watched Terence Crawford's career at 140 and call it a day. Don't go any further and expose yourself as a casual
