Teofimo Lopez Outclasses Arnold Barboz Jr. to keep the title

Modern York – when he is focused, few warriors can compete with Teofimo Lopez.
The flash of the world champion in two divisions materialized in the ring against the previously undefeated Arnold Barboz Jr. Lopez, he led the unanimous decision to maintain the WBO Junior championships on Friday in the unique Times Square surroundings.
Lopez (22-1, 13 KO) routinely beats Barboza to hit, easily avoided the opponent’s crime and was too qualified. The judges won the fight 116-112, 116-112 and 118-110 for Lopez.
Lopez, fighting with Las Vegas, won a unanimous decision over Steve Claggett. But Lopez has faced questions about achieving full potential in the last few fights.
He stopped these fears to relax with the dominant performance against a skillful boxer who was undefeated.
Barboza (32-1) entered the fight after the impressive victory of the switchgear over Jacek Cattell in February. After years of willingness to fight Lopez, Barboza finally got this opportunity, but he quickly realized that he was not ready for a challenge against “taking over”.
Lopez’s physical advantages were presented early, because it was elusive, sliding with blows and often landing meters. Barboza worked difficult to pull in inside, but he could not keep up with the extremely talented Lopez.
As long as long -lasting rounds, Lopez found a rhythm, mixing some showboating with his exact accuracy, while Barboza tried to find his trail.
With a thorough stab, powerful right hand counterattack and piercing reflexes, Lopez was too huge for his rival. At the end of the rounds, it was perceptible that Barboza needed a knockout, but the lack of power of a warrior in California made the result very unlikely.
Lopez developed Barboza, landing 127 out of 574 blows. Barboz could not keep up, and only 71 blows landed 426.
Lopez is looking for major obstacles with the victory and was caused by the unbeaten unified champion of welterweight Jaron “Boots” Ennis.
“You know me guys, I’m going after tough challenges,” said Lopez. “I want to see shoes. I’m an explorer and I’m looking for shoes.”

Recent York, Recent York-Ryan Garcia (24-2, 20 KO) returned to the ring after a year’s suspension against Rolando “Rolly” Romero (17-2, 13 KO), his return did not go as expected. Ryan demonstrated rust and seemed unprepared by the plane.
Romero’s additional strength increased Romero, dropping Garcia in the second round with a double left hook. Ryan started an offensive attack in the match, gradually increasing his production from the first to the second round, throwing 28 blows in this round. When he suffered a knocking out, he seemed shocked, and then changed his approach, limiting the exchange, significantly reducing his production for the next ten rounds.
“Rolly fought for a good fight. He caught me early, without excuses. Congratulations to him. He did a great job and all this,” said Garcia. Romero overtook Garcia, being the most energetic of them, throwing 215 stabs, connecting 39 of them (Compubox). The combined 490 strokes thrown by both warriors are the third lowest blows thrown by Compubox in their 40-year history.
After a unanimous decision victory, Rolly won the WBA welterweight title, placing herself on the winning path. Defeating a celebrated star, such as Ryan, only increases his profile and gives him many fitting options. “They always support. Ryan is a warrior. He got up and ended the fight. I am grateful for this occasion,” said Romero. Transfer to 147 helped him and showed himself in the ring. Ryan hesitated before he felt the power of Rolly. Going forward, we could see the ancient power that he threw his opponents.
In the co–Main Devin party, Haney received Jose Ramirez and, like Garcia-Romero, it was a match of a circumscribed exchange, in which we saw Haney took a very sheltered approach, boxing outside to a full 36-minute match. Connected 503 stamps thrown by both warriors won the fourth place in the Compubox rankings for the smallest blows, just under Garcia-Romero. Registration, fatal organizers of fury did not strive when the event was created. Haney landed Ramirez 70 to 40, landed, giving him a unanimous victory of the decision. It was a very technical match of Haney, which seemed ecstatic to do a minimal job to win the victory. “I felt good in the fight, and the game plan I was working on definitely showed him. I imposed him. He couldn’t do anything there,” said Haney. Earlier he stated that he was going to improve the errors of the fight in Garcia and return to what he is doing best, i.e. the box. This strategy reduces the possibilities of opponents, which hinders landing.
In the triple opener, Teofimo Lopez defeated Arnold Barboza Jr. using a unanimous decision. Lopez demonstrated his agility and elusiveness, remaining beyond the reach of barbose blows. The speed and work of the legs turned out to be tough for Barbozy. “We did our best, but this time we started briefly. Congratulations to Teofimo for a hard-fighting victory. We will take advantage of this experience, learn from it and come back more. The work continues. Maybe we can fight the next Ryan, Haney or anyone who gives us the opportunity,” Barboza said. As for Lopez, in the future there may be a movement to a welterweight, stating that the time has come to make this move. It seems that his view is Jaron Ennis, calling him: “I am an explorer and I am looking for shoes.”

Canelo Alvarez will try to become a double-expanded 168-Funt champion tonight in the fight with the IBF belt owner Willod Scull in Riyadh. In the main support, Jaime Munguia is fighting Bruno Surace in a rematch in Super Middle weight, which is crucial for both. Martin Bakole in heavyweight fights Efe Ajagba in the battle between two power-punches.

Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KO) is in a situation almost without winning, fighting with the invincible Cuban Scull (23-0, 9 KO). Fans perceive this fight as a mismatch and another example of Canelo carefully selecting defeated opponents to make sure he is still winning.
The complete card starts at 19:00 et.
Canelo Alvarez vs. William Scull
Jaime Mungia vs. Bruno Surace
Martin Bale vs. Ephrace ajagba
Badou Jack vs. Norair Mikaeljan
Green Marco vs. Michel Polina
Brayan Leon vs. Aaron Guerrero
The Cuban is a pure boxer who will make it tough for Alvarez to take off the shots. Scull will move a lot, landing single arrows and frustrates the Mexican star. It will make Canelo look bad, especially if Early Gasses, just like in the last two fights with Edgar Berlang and Munguiu.
People would prefer Canelo to omit this fight and immediately go to his planned mega-classh against Terenka Crawford, for which boxing fans are waiting.
Mungia vs. Surace 2
Munguia (44-2, 35 KO), a pretender for a super medium weight, will try to avenge his previous loss from France Surace 26-0-2, 5 Kos) tonight. Mungui was knocked out in the sixth round of December 14 last year in Tijuana, which some perceived as cherry, went wrong.
Surace was chosen as an opponent that Jaime would look good, beating a guy with an inflated record, but he moved away from the popular Mexican warrior when he was blown up. Surace’s right hand shots in Surace were too large for Mungui’s basic to hit.
