Former WBO light welterweight world champion Teofimo Lopez commented on his defeat in the title fight against Shakur Stevenson. Recently, Stevenson won a landslide victory over Lopez, taking away the championship belt from him.. " I didn't fight hard enough. We got the solution we got. I performed poorly by not listening to my command. It's my fault. My team did a phenomenal job.. She had great directions and instructions.. I just didn't listen. I knew about his jab. I just quit the race. I've played his game too much. I was too focused on one specific goal instead of enjoying the fact that I could see weaknesses. I caught him with body shots a lot. I think this is one of the effective things in my arsenal that got him every time. I should have thrown more combinations, especially when I ended them with a left hook.. I hate myself for this but it's just part of life. I grew up strong and tough. I'm always hard on myself because of this. But I’m in a good position here and I’ll take this blow like a true champion,” Lopez was quoted as saying by The Ring.. Let us remind you that a video of the best moments of the Stevenson-Lopez fight is available on our website.. Shakur confidently defeated Teofimo and took the junior welterweight title.
