After the fight, Lopez took the mic and went on to say that he felt that he had easily won the fight. The NY crowd immediately booed Lopez for being a sore loser and stealing Kambosos’ spotlight.

“I won tonight and everyone know that. The referee raised my hand, I won tonight. I don’t care what anyone says. I won tonight…
Look I ain’t no sore loser, I take my wins as I take my loses, at the end of the day I’m a true champion, I came out here and I came what I had to do and I went out there and I did my best.”

Teofimo Lopez is delusional. He actually thinks he won by wait for it… 10 rounds to 2. Arrogance and stupidity.
Well done George Kambosas Jr. Well done Australia! #LopezKambososJr
