Josh Taylor vs Teofimo Lopez: 5 Possible Ways the Fight Could End
5 possible Ways the Josh Taylor vs Teofimo Lopez bout will end
5. No contest due to accidental headbutt: We kick off our list with one of the most unlikely things that could end the fight. Both fighters like to engage and fight within range. Moreover, both fighters look to land heavy in the clinch. However, with so many close exchanges, an accidental headbutt is not out of the equation. This could then lead to a no-contest.
4. Josh Taylor unanimous decision win: Taylor and Lopez are two fighters who look to finish their fights much before the final bell. However, if there is to be a unanimous decision, we think it will be Josh Taylor who takes home the unanimous decision. Taylor has a slightly better experience in the ring. And this could serve him well in the latter rounds.
3. Teofimo Lopez knockout: If Lopez wins, it could very well be a knockout win. While Josh Taylor also has incredible knockout power, Lopez is more eager to make a statement to the division. Therefore, it could be a knockout win for the American.
2. Josh Taylor TKO: Another possible outcome for Taylor vs Lopez is a TKO win for Josh Taylor. Taylor is a volume fighter while Lopez is a power puncher. Therefore, the volume of punches could get too much for Lopez in the latter rounds, and Taylor might take home the TKO win.
1. Split decision: Finally, the last outcome we think is a split decision. Boxing judges have come under increased scrutiny after the Devin Haney vs Vasyl Lomachenko bout. And it could be more of the same this weekend. Taylor is a volume fighter who throws more while Lopez is a power puncher who picks his moments. Therefore, the judges could see the fight differently, resulting in a controversial split decision.
So there you have it. These are five possible outcomes for the Taylor vs Lopez bout. What do you think will happen?
