Round 8: Both fighters are connecting with big shots in this round, really taking turns at times. This round was an easier one to score, I’m giving the advantage at 68-65 Lopez. Well, on my scorecard he definitely is at least. When comparing the output and connections from the two boxers, it feels like Lopez is starting to gain a lead. Lopez was able to land a really good right cross on Taylor halfway through the round. Round 7: Lopez is doing a good job of coming in for his shot and getting out before Tayor can respond. This round was a hard one to score but I think, I’ll go 58-56 Lopez. The fight took a break in the third minute of this round due to a low shot on Lopez. Similar to round five, the pace was slow in this round. It’s a fair assessment, it feels like Taylor is walking down Lopez but not doing anything with that movement. Round 6: Broadcast notes that Taylor is advancing at Lopez but “freezing” once in front of him. Despite the change of pace, I think Lopez kept his momentum going and snagged another round. It’s worth noting that after two faster-paced rounds, both fighters slowed down a little in this frame. Lopez scored with a right cross again two minutes into the round then repositioned. Taylor is the more advancing boxer in this round. Round 5: Lopez backed Taylor up with a right cross a minute into the round. Lopez had a great second half to this round and tied it up once again. With Taylor against the ropes, Lopez unloaded with a combination to end the round. Taylor got hit with a right hand that stung him a little. Lopez was the advancing fighter throughout this round, although Taylor continued to connect. The crowd came alive as Taylor started to move awkwardly, although it looked more like a loss of balance instead of being hurt. Round 4: Taylor connects with a clean overhand left in the opening minute of round four. Another incredibly close round, I’m willing to give the lead back to Taylor, making it 29-28 Taylor. The referee warned Taylor about pulling Lopez’s head again halfway through the round. Lopez went for a glove touch, and Taylor opted for trying to land a punch instead. Taylor landed a shot on Lopez while the referee said stop – Lopez protested this and the referee warned Taylor afterward. Lopez went into the ropes and had to use his balance to not fall out of the ring, it seems. Round 3: Round three starts and it’s getting scrappy. Lopez connected with the better shots in this round I feel, I’ll tie it up at 19-19. A close frame once again – they’re both being cautious to start and are justifiably picky about busting out longer combinations of shots so far. Taylor opened up with a few solid shots in the final seconds of the round. Lopez came forward with a series of hooks on Taylor later in that minute. The referee showed concern that the fighters might be clashing heads – this after they came together once. Round 2: Taylor came in for a punch and was caught by a short right hand from Lopez in the second minute of the round. Taylor seemed to be the more active fighter in the opening round, I’ll go 10-9 Taylor. A small, potentially insignificant bruise started to show the left side of Lopez’s nose during the round. Taylor was given a warning in the third minute about pushing in the clinch. Taylor was the first one to really put together a combination, coming forwards with a few shots in the second minute. Both boxers spent the first minute trying to figure each other out, mainly with jabs. Round 1: The crowd had a decent amount of supporters for either boxer, but Lopez seemingly had more in support of him – a “Teo” chant broke out early.
