Lopez going balls to the wall all in for the finish. Beating him up this round, badly.

Another big take away here is that while a top champion defended and another champ was crowned, both Ford and Lopez indicated they are moving up to Spr Feather. So two more vacant titles to come. Although Ford seems more certain given the weight cut issues and specifically mentioned Cordina which can be easily made. Rematch with Kholmatov sounds out of the question which is a shame given the circumstances and sheer competitiveness of that classic.

Add Ford vs. Kholmatov to the list of great fights already this year
Ford had to take on the unusual role of puncher
However you see the ending, Ford deserves credit for digging deep & getting the W
Kholmatov fought a great fight as well & can hopefully come again

Finally watched Raymond Ford v Otabek Kholmatov and have to say Kholmatov was the superior boxer. I had him winning the contest by quite a huge margin until he got stopped in that last round. That must hurt deep down.

Ford may be stronger at the higher weight but he is not beating Cordina.
