Vasiliy Lomachenko v Teófimo López: lightweight title unification fight – live!

We’re midway through the final preliminary fight before tonight’s main event: Alex Saucedo (30-1, 19 KO) and Arnold Barboza Jr (24-0, 10 KOs) in a 10-round junior welterweight matchup. There’s been little to separate either of them throughout a wildly entertaining scrap fought mostly in the confines of a phone booth.

“Once he got in the ring, I looked in his eyes,” Berlanga said. “He didn’t want to be there. So, I had to get him out.”

Asked about his post-fight celebration, where he climbed the turnbuckle and shouted “I am a fucking monster!”: “I’m the first person to stop him, and [I did it] in the first round. So, you know, it just off emotion, off how I really felt. For all the critics out there, all the media, I just felt it in me that I had to say that.”

"I'M A F*CKIN MONSTER!!!"

This streak just might never end.
