Kambosos Fakes Out The World, Jukes Lomachenko and Haney To Collide With Brock Jarvis

[Cypocryphy]

"Draconian" measures in regards to the pandemic?? Get vaccinated and there's no problem- which Lomachenko has already done as evidenced by the fact that he fought in NYC where you must be vaccinated to enter athletic venues. I'm hoping that Kambosos fights Loma next and that Loma then fights Haney.

I mean that certain cities or regions are very quick to issue lockdowns. They also buckle under internal pressure to make restrictions even more stringent. I also hope Loma is next. I think it's the only way we see both fights: Loma vs Kambosos and then Loma vs Haney.

Yes. This is exactly what I think is going to happen. Kambosos fights in Australia, and following that will be the WBO mandatory fight with Lomachenko. I am hoping that Haney doesn't move up to 140. It sounds as if he will, which would be lame because I really want to see the Lomachenko vs Haney showdown. I'm 99 percent confident that if Haney were next and he beat Kambosos, then he'd duck Loma, vacate the belts and move up to 40. He already priced himself out of a Loma fight by requesting 5 million. But he fought Diaz for a little more than a million. So, there's no way Haney is going to fight Loma, unless he's put into a position where he has to fight him.

Didn't Loma petition to be Franchise champion so he didn't have to fight Haney?

I mean, I don't think either wants to fight the other.

That's why I was hoping Kambosos would fight Haney, it's our best, maybe only chance of Undisputed. He doesn't beat Loma.

Edit - just seen your sig. You're not going to give us an unbiased answer are you...

I will be adding this to the list of fights I won't be watching then.

[Cypocryphy]

Guy you spoke to was full of shit.

Mannix was just speak about Kambosis last Friday, and said Peter Kahn was at the TR office last week. They're obviously working on a Lomachenko fight.

Where did you hear this or see this? I've looked and can't find anything about that. Do you have a link?

No. Top Rank petitioned. They also petitioned or announced that they were petitioning before Haney was even interim champion. So it doesn't have anything to do with ducking Haney specifically. It was a tool to enable Loma to not only unify but to make championship fights down at 130. I think they saw a showdown with Stevenson after the Lopez fight. Loma was talking to Haney before the Lopez fight about making Haney the next fight. So it looked as if it would be Loma vs Lopez, then if he won, it would be Loma vs Haney. That would give Shakur time to fight Herring, and then it would be Loma vs Shakur because he won. That was the plan as I understood it.

But Loma didn't know what the Franchise belt was and had no idea what it meant. He was upset when he lost the WBC belt because the whole point of what he was doing was to become undisputed. So what wasn't his plan, and it was why he was talking to Haney to make that fight after Lopez.

However, HANEY definitely priced himself out of a Lomachenko fight. He fought Diaz instead for considerably less than what he was asking to fight Loma.

Smart business you guys say? Maybe.

But bad for boxing. Why are you so much into the money side of it all? Are these fighters cutting you a check, or are YOU cutting them the check?

This dude hit the lottery by beating Teofimo. He should do what's best for him and his family is all we are saying. I'd make as much as I could cause let's be honest, his chances of beating Loma or Hane yare probably not great and then his time in the spotlight is over.

I don't care either way and of course i'd take the better fight first but I won't be mad if he chooses a softer touch.
We got guys who are borderline p4p fighters who wouldn't come close to having a Lopez then Haney or Loma on their record back to back. some of them haven't fought anyone as good as Teo and they are asking for $75 to watch them fight bums

[tokon]

I would do that if I were him. Why get paid for just one fight when you can get at least 2 out of this new found stardom
A big home fight against a jeff horn type talent and then the mega fight against whoever he chooses
smart buisness

Yes, that would a wise business move.

[PeepeePoopooMan]

I'd be so disappointed especially all the calling out he was doing
