In an intense and tactical battle filled with tension inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, Teófimo “The Takeover” López once again etched his name in boxing history, becoming the new WBA Welterweight Super Champion after defeating Rolando “Rolly” Romero by majority decision.

The final verdict reflected the competitive nature and drama of the 12-round showdown. Two judges scored the fight for López, 116-112 and 115-113, while the third judge scored it a 114-114 draw, handing the fighter of Honduran heritage a majority-decision victory.

From the opening bell, the fight unfolded like a high-speed game of chess. Romero looked to impose his physical strength and trademark aggression, attempting to close the distance and land heavy power shots from unorthodox angles. López, however, showcased his polished technique, using elusive footwork, constant changes of pace and a sharp jab to dictate range and land the cleanest, most accurate counters of the night.

In the second half of the fight, “Rolly” increased the pressure in search of a fight-changing punch, but López’s composure and upper-body movement proved decisive as he weathered the exchanges and answered with fast combinations to the head that repeatedly stalled Romero’s momentum. With this statement victory in Las Vegas, Teófimo López adds another championship to his résumé at 147 pounds, claiming the prestigious WBA black-and-gold Super Championship belt and reaffirming his status as one of boxing’s premier stars.
