Commey took a heavy punch in round two and went to the ground
Ghana’s Richard Commey last Saturday lost his IBF Lightweight
title to Teofimo Lopez, following a second round crushing “Knock Out” from the
Mexican American at the Madison Square Garden in New York.
The challenger resumed the second round with
more aggression, after a balanced first round, flooring Commey with a terrible
right hook.
Commey beat the count to manage to stay in the
fight but Lopez pursued him continuously with powerful punches to overpower the
Ghanaian and snatched his IBF Lightweight title in an impressive fashion.
