Predictions:

This is a big lightweight unification bout that could certainly go the distance. Both fighters have different boxing styles, and they will both be tested tonight. While Lomachenko has an agressive right at you approach, Lopez comes with a make a miss and you will pay style. Both fighters are very accurate and both have solid defensive tactics.

Lomachenko’s age comes with experience as a fighter, and Lopez brings the power and force behind his punches. If this fight goes the distance, Lomachenko should have more points on the overall scorecard due to his ability accurately land lots of punches in bursts. However, Lopez will certainly be looking for that knockout blow if he catches Lomachenko slipping.
