Comments Thread For: Vasiliy Lomachenko Eager For Devin Haney Showdown: "I Need This Fight, Undisputed"

[Cypocryphy]

When was an celebrity athlete's home country invaded and they went and fought but left in the middle of the war?

Vitali klitschko out there ready to die for Ukraine for real.

Loma fighting in Ukraine was top rank promotion at its finest.

During WWII, Nikolay Korolyov, a Russian boxer, went and fought for the championship twice. This was before the war ended for Russia. Korolyov also served in the armed forces before.

Like I said. This is not unusual.

Russia wasn't invaded during world war 2

Thats not the same. Korolyov homeland wasn't under siege. Lomachenko's is as we speak

Bob never thought Loma would lose to a guy with 15 fights

What? Based upon what? Top Rank actually made a fortune because Lomachanko came up short, it was a gift.

If Lomachanko won Bob would need to continue paying 3.5 million per fight and if he lost, Bob keeps belts and a guy he pays 400k per fight. All Bob ever did was complain about losing money on Crawford and Lomachanko. Bob Arum knew Lomachanko needed shoulder surgery and made sure there was no rematch clause because he wanted out. Lomachanko's loss saved Top Rank millions and EVERYONE knows that Bob is in it for the money....period.

Bob screwed Lomachnko and now he is screwing Lopez and paying him 8 1/2 times less.

For the record, Adolf Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa into the soviet Union in 1941.

Thats not the same. Korolyov homeland wasn't under siege.

Actually Korolyov was born in Moscow and Moscow was in the Soviet Union.

Lomachenko's is as we speak

Actually it was President Zelenskyy that said Lomachanko & Usyk could do more for the Ukraine people on a Global stage. Like Jessie Owens in the 36 Olympics, they bring world attention and hope to the Ukraine people and their cause.

I see the clowns are active. Loma is so far beyond haney it’s mind boggling. The most likely outcome is haney quitting on his stool around 8 or 9. Or just a wide UD. Haney doesn’t have the power to keep Loma off of him. He’s going to be eating flush combinations by round 5. There’s simply levels to this sport. Haney has one decent win on his trash resume, over a fighter who’s style is tailor made for him. Loma’s resume is 2nd best in the sport behind Canelo. Shakur is the only one with a shot over Loma, assuming they don’t all wait him out like they’ve been doing.

A lot of people writing off Lomachenko. Even at his age, he will give Haney some issues, Haney tends to fade and get sloppy in the second half of fights and I see Loma capitalizing on that. I am confident that lomachenko wins a wide UD over Kambosos or maybe even stops him late as well. Lomachenko is the second best 135lb

Loma at the start of the war decided to go into Ukraine, not stay out of Ukraine. Loma wasn't enlisted in the armed forces in Ukraine. Ukraine has an enlisted force. There are men across Ukraine, Loma's age staying in thier cities helping the defense of their country by protecting thier homes and villages. That's what Loma's experience was. And it was admirable that such a visible figure went into Ukraine. Men younger than Loma are playing professional soccer throughout the world representing thier country, because they are not enlisted in the military. For all you noobs, there was no draft in Ukraine. These soccer players have thier homes in Ukraine. Those that bring up Loma and his experience in the war and use it as a dirty ploy to, low blow, are the worst type of scum bags on this planet. They would be happy seeing Loma on the front lines killed in battle rather than have this white Boi, as Haney put it, get back in the ring to make his country proud. Loma sacrificed money in the pros by staying amateur to win two gold medals for his country. His country values him and he values his country. I too served in the military in the U.S. during the 1990 Iraq war. I am Ukrainian and have a pulse on what's going on daily. I have friends throughout Ukraine and my own relatives there and my wife's mother is in Kherson where the whole lynch pin of the war is focused. We could lose her in the battle for Kherson and we can't get her out. Don't ****ing come in here backseat driving in something you have no clue about. My father was also CIA and a consultant for the atrocity in Ukraine giving up thier nuclear weapons in 1994. Ukraine wants peace. That's why they ******ly gave up thier weapons. My father warned our government it was the wrong move to encourage Ukraine to do that. Loma wants peace. He did the admirable thing in going into Ukraine and uniting with the populace of 44 million. Zelensky, a president of a country, encouraged Loma to fight in the ring to give courage to the armed forces back home. Does ***** care who Haney is? Simple as that. Go to hell you low life scum bringing his experience into question. Top Rank never promoted that Loma was on the Frontline. The Frontline is for professional soldiers, not civilians which Loma is. Civilians in local villages vowed to protect them aligned to local militia. That is his experience, nothing more, nothing less. He faced rocket bombardment and daily Air raid sirens daily as all my friends do. It's a living hell to be honest, the closer you are to the battle line but even far off cities like Kaniv and Lviv. I've been to Ukraine many times and know the cities well. Where Loma was located was a hot spot for Russia. Loma faced certain rocket bombardment from the Black Sea. At the time Loma was facing potential death as snake island was taken and the invasion of Southern Ukraine looked imminent. This is what Loma faced. He couldn't stop a missile and land based invasion. Russia wanted a land bridge across all of Southern Ukraine, blocking Ukraine from the Black Sea. After Moskva sunk by two Neptunes, Russia backed off that initiative, pulling its ships away from the planned landing and bombardment.

"Stadiums in western Ukraine and the Kyiv region will be equipped with air raid shelter facilities. Fixtures will be paused in the event of security alerts. In short, the Ukrainian government and the Ukrainian Football Association are doing everything they can to ensure that these football matches can be played in the safest conditions in Ukraine."

Dude ... you skip history class in school or something? It was one of the grandest invasions in the history of warfare. EVER.

Look. I'm not going to say anything or make any snide comment. Just do yourself a favor and read about the Eastern Front and how Germany invaded Russia.

Wtf are you talking about. Lomachenko took less money just to make the Lopez fight.

lopez cause bob to lose the kambosos fight immediately after. Because lopez wanted more than bob was willing to pay. Bob was furious that teo let it go to purse bid. Loma never gave bob trouble.
