Please help me understand if this is what really happened because I can’t wrap my head around the logic behind these Devin Haney fans.
When Loma got the Franchise WBC title, he wanted to fight for Crolla’s belt because it would be a quicker rout to become undisputed right? I don’t think Loma wanted to fight Haney because Haney had nothing to offer. Hence why Loma told Teofimo to grab a belt if he wanted the Loma shot. Teo completed Loma’s terms so he got the shot.
Haney fans are now trying to discredit Teofimo’s undisputed status and say that Haney beat Loma because Loma “ducked” him. They call Haney the “boogeyman” of the division because of this. It’s funny because you would consider a boogeyman as someone who can do career ending damage and Haney can’t crack an egg if his life depended on it.
I don’t like Loma, but I don’t think that he ducked Haney. I think Haney had nothing to offer for him. Loma seemed to be interested in belts. Devin had nothing to offer and would have been one additional fight that Loma didn’t need to become undisputed, so he used the time to grab another belt. Teo complied with Loma’s terms and Haney fans want to take what was earned from Teofimo.
Haney was the mando. Loma has previously made a defense against another mando. I think that shows it wasn’t about the belts.
I think we need to really look at what happened sat night. Loma looked surprised by Teo’s speed. A lot of us were.
With Haney, you know coming in he is faster than Loma, in addition to being bigger and taller.
Loma is better than Haney but Haney has all the attributes to make the fight tougher and to win.
It’s like Hearns or Forrest against Floyd. Floyd is better than both but they have the height and reach that would be tough for Floyd to overcome.
Its funny you said that because those are 2 fighters that i believe beat floyd. For those exact reasons
You know a little something about boxing i see.
loma took a stupid franchise belt from the moronic wbc so he could go ahead with his quest for all the belts v teo commey winner, while also dropping the wbc normal belt but yet fighting as the wbc champ v teo, i may be confused but who would not be with all the org's and their BS crap all the time, how can any1 keep or want to keep up
you don’t think it had anything to do with Haney not having any belts?

Loma dropped the belt rather than fight Haney because Haney is big and fast and has all the physical attributes that would’ve made it tough for Loma to win.
Loma loses that fight and he doesn’t have the belts and there is no huge payday for a Teo fight.
It’s Simple- the business of boxing is why Loma avoided haney. you don’t think it had anything to do with Haney not having any belts?
Bump....need help understanding this....
