“Despite a strong start from Taylor, one punctuated by left hands to the body, a reach advantage ominously exploited, and the sort of insightful counsel (“Go out there and figure him out”) that distinguishes Lopez’s trainer and father, Teofimo Sr., Lopez gained control of the fight early and never relinquished it. Perhaps some unspoken code is embedded in that seemingly useless utterance. Because Lopez figured Taylor out soon after—and when he did, both fighters fought as though they knew it.”
