Comments Thread For: Stevenson Expects Lomachenko To Go 'Haney Route': He Wants Titles

[Creepybull]

I think, I do believe that Haney whips Loma at this point and Top rank believes it too. The man they are really grooming "The Dream" Devin Haney for is Shakur Stevenson. Which is one of the reasons why he is moving up to 135.

I don’t think this fight lives up to the expectations. Both are boring and have no power in their hands.

When Lomachenko is healthy and motivated, locked on and dialed in, nobody lightweight or under can beat him. He’s the most athletic fighter of the last 40 years, but his weakness is that he is overconfident and relies too much on angles.

Haney by out-hugging Lomachenko.

Jab, Jab, hug all night.

If this will be Haney's plan, I think Loma punishes him. He is not a boxer that waits in the clinch, but rather works in it. See what happened when Commey didn't pay attention in the clinch.

I agree. The two have very similar styles; For the exception that Shakur Stevenson is a southpaw.

Haney doesn’t have the firepower to keep Loma honest. Clinching Loma is gonna get Haney hurt, Loma doesn’t accept clinches. This is stylistically an easy fight for Loma. Stevenson would be 50-50.

I was being sarcastic. Hope Loma does something to avoid that clinch, otherwise its will be another boring Haney fight.

Why did Haney first fight for the interim title belt? Why that? That's what the question should be. Haney had a chance to be the mandatory but fought for the interim belt instead, making him a discretionary title defense. And Haney still didn't petition for the fight. But there's so many ****** people in the world that they'll believe the sky is falling if you tell them it is.

Just answer the questions i asked. I didn't ask any Haney questions

When Loma beats the piss out of Haney, I'm going to find you and rub it in until you delete your account. Forum needs less idiots like yourself.

Stop lying. You’re going to hide when Haney beats him same as you did when Teo beat him.

You are already preemptively denigrating the victory by posting about “ jabbing and hugging” because deep down you’re scared to death Haney is going to win by out boxing Loma.

He is special. Mediocre fighters would have never worked up such resume. You are nothing special. In fact, I bet you suck at whatever you do. Even if that is flipping burgers. It take a special kind of hateful, envious loser to look at someone like Loma and say: "meh, nothing special".

Lol, you think the little insult bothers me? I don't see anything special. When he gets descion victories it's never called boring. Didn't he go the distance with Pedraza and Luke Campbell? It's the Matrix tho lol. I don't want to hear about a shoulder injury or something else when one of those young guns box his ears off.

Arum (Top Rank) planned on making him Franchise before he even won the WBC belt. As soon as Canelo became Franchise, Arum planned on doing the same for Loma if he beat Campbell. Haney wasn't even an interim champion at that time. He was ranked somewhere below number one. Haney was a prospect at that time, not even a contender. Why would Loma worry about a prospect? Makes no sense. When Loma won the WBC, while he didn't have the Franchise designation, Haney opted out of fighting for the number one spot with the WBC and fought for the interim belt instead. An interim champion cannot be a mandatory. So at that point in time, it didn't matter if Loma was WBC champion or Franchise Champion because either way, Haney was never his mandatory.

And that's the end of that conversation
