Loma's work in some of those later rounds was more dominant than anything Lopez did in the fight, maybe outside of the 12th. He had Lopez stunned multiple times, and stiffened. That being said, he gave way too many rounds to Lopez early.
Lomachenko has definitely capped out at 135, and really isn't even a 135. You can see how much issue he has with guys that are quite a bit taller - Luke Campbell, now Lopez. Dudes incredible, and I certainly wouldn't bet against him in a rematch, but he has his work cut out for him. He needs to fight that fight in the pocket way earlier, staying at range with Lopez was obviously not smart. He'll have to find a solution to that uppercut though, great adjustment Lopez made.
Really curious if they'll run that back, promoters love to take their new cash cows and run with them elsewhere. Which is such a shame for this sport.
