One of the most important boxing matches of the year took place in Las Vegas, USA, where a 23-year-old American Teofimo Lopez (16-0) defeated the 32-year-old Ukrainian boxing star by unanimous decision of the judges (116-112, 119-109 and 117-111) Vasilija Lomačenka (14-2) and became the first lightweight fighter to join the WBA (Super), WBC (franchise), WBO and IBF world champion belts. Lopez has become the youngest fighter since the founding of the WBO in 1988, with all four world champion belts.

The judges were very surprised Julie Lederman card. It turned out that V. Lomachenko fought desperately, giving the Ukrainian a victory in just 1 round of 12. This surprised boxing experts and fans, and the president of Top Rank. Bob Arumas stated that these judges should be avoided by all.
Judges scores:
“I counted Lopez to win rounds 7: 5. He may be able to talk about his 8: 4 lead, but he can’t give him a win in rounds 11: 1 and explain that he saw the fight. Rounds 9, 10 and 11 weren’t even difficult. I would advise all of our fighters to run for the commission so that Julie Ledermann is not assigned to judge their fights, “Arum said.
Arum: Lopez won, 7-5 is the way I scored it. I can see 8-4, that’s a possibility. But you can’t score it 11 rounds to 1 and say you saw the fight. Ninth, tenth, and eleventh weren’t close. I would advise any fighter that I have to ask the commission not to name Julie Lederman

Meanwhile, V. Lomačenka, whose words were translated by a Lithuanian agent Egis Klimas, assured me that he had won the fight.
“In the first half of the fight, the opponent won more rounds than me, but from the second half of the fight I took the initiative and fought much better. I want to go home and see the record of the fight because there is little about whatever I can comment on at the moment. Still, I really don’t agree with the judges’ evaluations. Yes, I think I won the fight. At least for the moment it seems like that, but the result is the result and I will discuss about that, ”said V. Lomačenka.
