Following the defeat, Ghanaians have reacted with some motivating Commey to keep his head up. Others also hailed Lomachenko for his class act of asking Commey’s corner to throw in the towel when the boxer was out of his feet.

@Asantefokuo tweeted: Yes, things didn’t go as expected for Richard Commey but the most important thing is to bounce back. We still love you.”

“At a point Lomachenko asked Richard’s Commey’s corner to stop the fight…at some point he relaxed for Commey to settle again after throwing far too many jabs at the Ghanaian ……this guy” a tweet by @Blaqqkoffi reads
