Move to 140 and fight who? Prograis, Ramirez and Taylor all smoke Haney. I’d like to think Haney would be willing to face Loma but I’d much rather see Loma/Davis. Just like Loma/Lopez was a much better fight than Loma/Haney was then.
He will have to. Maybe he will, who knows?
Why are you asking it like this?
Loma was the one that dropped the belt and worked with his promoter on a franchise BS designation to avoid Haney.
The question is will Loma fight Haney. The answer is no. He has shown no inclination to fight Haney at all up to this point.
I suspect he will drop belts again rather than fight Haney. Let’s hope he gains some balls and proves my prediction wrong.
The real question is, "will loma fight haney if loma wins?" Loma and his team were the ones who petitioned for the mythical franchise belt to avoid the haney fight a while back.
True, but he also fought Lopez who was probably a bigger risk, not a bigger risk in terms of being outboxed, but a bigger risk in terms of getting hurt. He wanted Lopez's belt and hopefully if Loma gets Kambos 3 belts he'll want Haney's 4th. I think he'll fight him, I don't the Loma a duck. Loma don't care about taking a loss, he fought rigo at the time who was all risk and zero reward at all, no belt, nothing, just criticism for beating a smaller guy (even do all rigo's fans and rigo talked all that shit about outboxing Loma and breaking his jaw). Never have I seen anyone get so little credit for taking a fight and winning where the other fighters fans constantly harassed him for allegedly ducking and so confident he'd win.

I think he would absolutely, Didn't "Franchise Champion" Prevent Loma vs Haney for a mandatory? So yeah I think Haney would fight him BUT Bob not making that and Bob is not going to give a SH^T about some "Real Undisputed Champion" garbage, instead ESPN will just call Loma Undisputed anyway regardless and Ignore and pretend like Haney doesn't exist
Haney should fight Tank.
Haney would look good on tanks resume. I think you're right this is probably the best approach to gain momentum in the LW division. If Haney wins that will boost his fan base exponentiallyand make him more appealing as an opponent.
