Macau - Vasyl Lomachenko fought a one-handed fight and still dominated with a Unanimous Decision victory against Chonlatarn Piriyapinyo of Thailand.
The WBO World Featherweight champion from Ukraine, hurt his left hand or arm in the seventh and fought with one hand from then on to successfully defend his belt against the Thai fighter.
Lomachenko dropped Piriyapinyo early in the 4th with a left, and he cruised to an easy win against an opponent that cannot catch him.
Despite his hurting arm. his punch output did not diminish and still was very effective from the 7th round onwards. His ring movement was superb and the Thai offered no challenge against the champion.
Piriyapinyo who is trained by former boxer Bobby Villaver of Cebu, Philippines, was unable to keep up with the champion's tremendous movement in the ring. He was also unable to capitalize on the injury to Lomachenko's arm in the 7th and won no round against the decorated amateur fighter.
All three judges have it a shutout win for Lomachenko with scores of 120-107 across the board.
