I checked on this fight and was surprised to see this.

Beginning of a fadeout for Lopez?
Kambosos is better than most people believed, including myself. I hadn't seen him fight before. He has quick hands and excellent footwork.

Lopez is too big for lightweight, he will likely fight in higher weight divisions from now on.

Brilliant performance!

I'd only seen Kambosos Jr once against Lee Selby when he didn't impress. Judging on that performance I didn't think he had a chance here.

But surprisingly Kambosos Jr is a top quality operator. Fully deserved win. Looks a solid all rounder.

Kambosos has very fast hands and seems to be disciplined enough to stick to he fight strategy. I expect more from him in the future
