Romero vs Lopez Main Card Official Results

Teofimo Lopez def. Rolly Romero via Majority Decision (114-114, 115-113, 116-112)

That was a shocking set of scorecards. I’m not sure what Glen Feldman watched on Saturday. He scored the fight a draw. I didn’t think that fight was close. There were a lot of quiet rounds, but there’s no way Romero won six rounds.
