TEOFIMO LOPEZ conquered ‘The Matrix’ to be crowned undisputed lightweight champion with a stunning display.
The American easily outpointed Vasiliy Lomachenko in just his 16th fight, winning on all three judges’ scorecards.
Tim Cheetham scored it 116-112, Julie Letterman a 119-109 thrashing with Steve Weifeld having it 117-111.
Working out how to beat Lomachenko has been compared to a challenge like that of the hit film The Matrix.
But Lopez, at just 23-years-old, had all the answers, stronger and quicker from the start to leave Loma contemplating his future, certainly at lightweight.
