Absolute world champion in the lightweight division Teofimo Lopes (16-0, 12 KOs) in an interview with a journalist ESPN Max kellerman confidently stated that his ex-opponent Vasily Lomachenko (14-2, 10 KOs) was surprised by the resistance in the ring.
According to the American, Lomachenko showed no desire to fix a frank cut in the ring.
“I saw that Lomachenko was trying to keep up. I noticed that he respects my power. He respected everything that was said before this fight. I realized this the moment the start gong sounded. Lomachenko tried to keep his distance. I pressed him as hard as I could. It is very difficult with a person who, it seemed to me, did not want to fight. He didn’t want to fight me. And when he did, we surprised him. We hit him in the body and I think he felt it. ”
