“I think 117-111 is a normal score, but Teofimo won almost every round for me. This is madness. If you want to box, then fine, I can understand that. But you have to give free rein to your arms when you box. You have to get close and move back like Floyd Mayweather did. He boxed, but he also scored points.

This guy literally went out for a run. He did not give free rein to his hands, because he knew that if he tried to throw a punch while he was running, he would run into a counterattack. We were waiting for this, but it never happened. He never attempted to attack.

Overall, we landed more punches, and he didn’t land any of the punches he threw at times. We are happy about the victory and move on. I hope that next time our dance partner will be better,” Lopez Sr. said in an interview with the YouTube channel Fight Hub TV.

Let's remember that this morning Lopez defeated Ortiz by unanimous decision (117-111, 115-113, 115-113).
