Here's the post fight interview of Raymond Muratalla, the PPV opener. They ask him who he wants next, and he says: "the winner of the main event."
Top Rank says: "Even though there's a Shakur Stevenson out there, there's a Tank Davis, there's a lot of big names, you deserve Devin Haney after tonight"?
They called Haney the winner before the fight even happened. THIS kind of detail is the reason that the fight was a robbery. Top Rank seemed like they knew the outcome before the fight, and said it live.
I think Loma won the fight but this goes too far
Sketchy as heck. Hopefully someone makes them answer why they were calling Haney the winner before the fight even happened. They were overlooking Loma all week, and then they can't even acknowledge him as a possible winner of the main event. I thought it was suspicious during the broadcast, but it's awfully suggestive with the outcome we got.
