Lomachenko, a two-time Olympic gold medalist, was the heavy favorite going into the fight and he lived up to expectations. He dominated Kambosos from the opening bell, using his superior speed and footwork to keep the Australian at bay.

Kambosos, who had won the IBF title in a controversial decision against Teofimo Lopez last November, showed heart and determination throughout the fight, but he was simply outmatched by the more skilled Lomachenko.
