Comments Thread For: Devin Haney: Honestly, I Thought Linares Would Hit Much Harder Than He Did

[-Kev-]

Haney will loose if he fights Loma.
I think right now they all loose if they face Loma.
I think Teo got a fluke and he knows it.

Not impressed by Teo or Haney, not at all.

I’d have Lomachenko beating Haney. But as far as Lopez goes, of right Lomachenko has an L next to that opponent. It was a good sample size of 12 rounds too.

You are special if you really believe Teo win was a fluke lol and not special In good way either.

A fluke is a quick KO sometimes not a schooling over 12 rds Teo is better than Loma in every dept I don’t get how some people are so odd and weird that they make ****t up in their head. Not even Loma thinks it was a fluke he found out fast that Teo was on a different level and Loma was scared ****less no two ways about it.

Loma beats Haney but gets chin checked by Ryan.

The logic is fine, it's you're bias that's off bro, I commended him for basically boxing Linares ears off and am very impressed with his jab, but that doesn't get away from the fact that Lopez hits harder than Linares and I know tank does and there skilled enough to catch him like Linares did and if he was doing the stanky leg off Linares I don't like his chances when Lopez inevitably catches him at some point, the logic's good and fair bro, the only chance he has against them is if he manages to box the whole 12 but I can't see that happening against boxers as skilled as himself

Styles make fights....please don't forget that. Think back on all of the "power punchers" in big fights against their equals (e.g. skill, power and/or popularity) and tell me what the result was. Typically, the power puncher didn't finish the fight by stoppage.

Again, if we're going add Haney into the mix of top guys at 135, then he needs to be extended the same benefit of the doubt as the others. We've seen Lopez handled against Nakatani, so, you mean to tell me that Haney won't give Lopez problems if he does some of the same things Nakatani did? To some degree?

And Tank is this big power puncher but what happens when a guy presses him, works behind the jab and works the body? Can Haney bring that to the table and show us a different Tank? Again, these fights where the "power puncher" is the end all be all, hardly ended in stoppages....especially against a more skilled guys who can neutralize that power.

what other CHAMPION have u seen literally dive to his opponents crotch to keep from getting hurt again. Survive if u must ...bur dont embarrass urself by saying “I was not hurt” and I thought my opponent hit harder...truly laughable!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're so funny about who we call "champions" nowadays. Just enjoy the moment that everybody seems to find so funny and some type of measuring stick for Haney's entire future. You have nothing else to speak on anyway.

[MeanestNiceGuy]

For sure it is. Especially by those self professed "experts" that call others casuals for voicing their disgust for sheeit like this *****.gif

Either debate my point or move on. You're so unfunny and nobody seems to wanna mention it.

its funny bc u dont see a professional fighter resort to blatantly lunging to clinch very often...much less a Champ who claims he was not hurt after the fight - makes it even funnier!!

No, what's funnier is I can count how many fighters caused the ref to step in because he didn't hold or take a knee. And guess what? They STILL made excuses after being stopped...and we'd mostly hear, "I felt like I could've continued." "I was never really hurt like that." "I believe the ref could've let it go on a little longer."

We've heard it all and I've personally felt the frustration of watching a fighter NOT take the necessary steps to ensure the bout continues. You're right, I can't really remember a fighter blatantly lunging to keep from being stopped. Well, I can't really remember if they champions or not.

I just saw John Molina hang on for dear life against Redkach, then came back to stop him. Hell, Sor Rungvisai held on to Chocolatito in the final round when he was hurt. Adonis Stevenson blatantly held against Badou Jack in the last round. Holyfield's done it a time or two. Juanma Lopez has done it as well.

Just say you wanted Haney to sell out and get stopped for your own viewing pleasure and I'll move on. Seriously, it's not much ground left to cover here.
