In a lightweight bout between former world champions, Vasiliy Lomachenko (16-2, 11 KOs) dropped and outboxed Richard Commey (30-4, 27 KOs) to secure a unanimous decision win with the judges scoring it 117-110, 119-108, 119-108.

Commey started the fight strongly, landing a few heavy punches, but that perceived dominance didn’t last long, with Lomachenko exhibiting great character and skill to outclass the Ghanaian.

The Ukrainian, slowly came into the fight from the second round, with his hard jabs and incredible speed, which Commey struggled to cope with as he was utterly dominated in the fight at the Madison Square Gardens.

Speaking after the fight, Commey said he always fights for his country Ghana and felt he let the nation down with his defeat.

“I fight for my country; I fight for my people. I let them down, but I believe I’m going to come back stronger,” he said.
