On Sunday morning there will be one of the main boxing matches of this year – Vasily Lomachenko – Teofimo Lopez. At stake are 3 Ukrainian championship titles and López’s belt according to the IBF. The winner will become the undisputed lightweight champion and one of the main contenders for the title of best out of category boxer.
Favbet odds: 1.2 – 5.5 – 29
Lomachenko’s early win – 2.6
Lomachenko win on points – 2
For a Ukrainian, this will be the first fight since August 2019. He then confidently outlasted Briton Luke Campbell and proved again that he is one of the best fighters of our time. However, Teófimo López has a different opinion in this regard. Throughout the year, the American tried to offend Lomachenko in the press and on social media, claiming that he would easily defeat Vasily. Well, it’s time to test words with deeds. But it will not be easy to do so. Lomachenko is considered the favorite of the fight, the probability of his victory is estimated at about 80%. Lopez, of course, is not to be underestimated, he is a really strong fighter who has never lost in the professional ring and won most of his victories by knockout. And yet there is confidence that Vasily will not miss his. The main question is how exactly are you going to win? Early or in points?
Lomachenko won 10 of his 14 victories ahead of schedule. In addition, Teofimo greatly angered Vasily, who had already said that he would not miss the opportunity to “hurt López”.
At the same time, it should not be forgotten that three times Lomachenko’s rivals (Walters, Sosa, Rigondo) simply refused to continue the fight, realizing that they did not have a single chance of beating the Ukrainian. Lopez definitely won’t do this. He has said too much and his fans simply won’t understand if he gives up without strength. Furthermore, Lomachenko is still primarily a technician rather than a puncher. If you understand that you are leading in points, you will definitely not go for Lopez, you absolutely do not need any additional risk. And therefore, although the statistics speak of an anticipated victory, logic dictates that the fight will take place in all 12 rounds, as a result of which the judges will give the victory to Lomachenko. Favbet gives 2 points to win, and this is the highest probability of all for this result.
Prediction: Lomachenko win on points – 2
