Time: 8 p.m. ET

In front of 10,429 in attendance, Lomachenko survived a knockdown in round 6 to win via TKO in round 10 after a perfectly placed liver shot to claim the WBA (Super) and The Ring lightweight titles.

Notable Info

• The quality performance decay has been significantly weakened in this release.  This penalty reduction (by about 1/2) was supported by improved prediction rates and the new variables (strength and decay acceleration) were decided upon after analyzing the results of several thousand simulations on the past 12 years of fight data.  If time allows, I may run additional simulations and further alter this value in the coming days/weeks.
