Comments Thread For: Photos: Vasiliy Lomachenko Arrives in Los Angeles, Targets Devin Haney Shot

It was an obvious duck, but it should be even more obvious it was more to do with the fact that Haney was at DAZN with slippery Eddie Hills, and ol’ man bob likes his in-house fights.

I mean, couldn’t be clearer now the enthusiasm for this fight from all parties is high…. Now that Haney’s with Top Rank!

Please leave Eddie out of this. Eddie has always allowed his fighters to take challenges and fight anybody unlike Bob and PBC who like to keep it in house. But ultimately it's the fighter who determines whether or not to fight a certain fighter, Haney has just proved this with the Kambosos fight. When a fighter is confident enough he makes a fight happen.

The KING is BACK!

When you say ‘nobody’, you mean Loma fans and DAZN/ Hearn haters, because Loma franchised it up when Haney was in association with Hearn.

That’s just how partisanship goes, isn’t it? It’s double standards because the only consistency with partisanship is that your side needs to have every advantage going.

Ofc, it’s obvious hypocrisy. But bro, I still wanna see that fight

Well said. I couldn't agree with you more. This fanboyism is one of the biggest problem in boxing. Once fighters are praised to the heaven and get a pass for all their cherry picking by their fans they become adverse to a real challenge and fight the best.

Well they all love an in-house fight, we’re not dis*****g that, but my point here wasn’t to give Eddie Hills any ****, but to point to his and DAZN’s association with Haney as the prevailing reason Ol’ man bob arranged the franchise.

No way in hell he does that if Haney was at Top Rank, which obviously you agree with

Fair enough.

The champ is here

Why should Loma get a shot? He didn't want to fight Devin when Devin was his mandatory. I'd stall him out. Give him the same treatment he gave you.

You’re a ***** doe. Haney doesn’t have a choice. It was part of the contract that he fight Loma/who TR picks after Kambosos.

My manz you are on point tonight jack! It is about a certain group always forgetting and forgiving and unfortunately it's the group I happen to be a part of. ylan Roof walk into a church in south carolina and murk 10 old church goers..no problem all the survivors run down to the jail and forgive him. Amber Guyger kills a man in his home....no problem little brother run down to the courthouse and hug and forgive her. In this case Arum/Loma denies Haney of chance at glory and a huge payday.... no problem Devin just forgive him and give him the opportunity he denied you. FUQ DAT! SOME people aren't going to change their ways until you start treating them just like they treat you.Hey DeveyDev... Bob and Loma need you...you don't need them. You are the champ baby so act like it in the ring and the boardroom!

Why is it the same group always bringing up skin color. We get it, you only pull for black fighters. But the facts are your boy haney was a nobody, Teo was the FAR bigger fight, and clearly the tougher opponent. He has one half decent win on his resume, over a fighter that stylistically had no chance.

These nationalistic and racial boxing fans are the worst, they don’t care about boxing.

The whole Lomochenko ducking Haney narrative is just ridiculous. Not Lomochenko fault that arum gave him a dumb WBC franchise belt so they can make Lomo-Lopez for all the 135lb belts. At the time everybody wanted the Lomochenko-Lopez fight to see who was the best while Haney just sat down and received a belt via email. Nobody scared of Haney man

It's not about whipping old man Loma it's about a certain group always forgetting and forgiving. The man Loma flat out denied Devin the opportunity. I wouldn't do Bob any favors. Belts don't matter anymore right? Devin is better than me because I'd tell Loma to kick rocks.

If and this is a big if. If Haney cares anything about a boxing LEGACY. He should fight Loma. Teo did and I don’t think Teo is as fast as Haney. Haney is an excellent boxer. Great money and small risk.
