Angelo Leo claimed both the IBF featherweight title and a spot at the top of 2024’s Knockouts of the Year with a shocking one-punch knockout of Luis Alberto Lopez. Leo (24-1, 11 KO), fighting in his native Albuquerque, came out with a clear and effective gameplan: work the jab, punish Lopez’s (30-3, 17 KO) wild swings, force his way inside with body shots, and tie up before Lopez can answer back. Despite this, Lopez kept things competitive throughout with his trademark awkward flurries, finding particular success with the rear uppercut as Leo dipped his way inside. Rounds often came down to who could seize the initiative first, resulting in constant momentum swings that left the fight up for grabs as the championship rounds approached.
