Lomachenko still beats Haney

[oscar9992]

NOPE!

Haney is the best 135 pounder by far!

He beats Loma, schools Tank & edges out Shakur Stevenson.

Haney got all the crafty defensive tools to beat Lomachenko. That's all he needs to retain his titles. The hugging alone would quickly reach the12th round in no time to win by pitty-pat victory .

Teo beat Loma and people claimed Loma was injured that is why he started late in fight. When in reality he was just wary of Teos power.

Look at Salido and Ortiz last night. Again 2nd half is where he picked the pace up. So Teo fight injury was just an excuse. People just need to admit Loma is great but not this unbeatable fighter some of you make out. Teo beat him fairly.

And after Loma gets his azz beat:

"he is too small"

[_original_]

I think Ortiz was better than expected and Loma had a huge layoff. With that said he’s way to small and his style has been figured out to an extent, even Ortiz was time his movements. Haney is prime with a massive size advantage and will be correctly favored.

Loma himself said he "needs more preparation" before fighting Haney

[LeOoze]

I don’t think so. I still think Haney wins but That said this imo is the worst case situation for Haney.

Loma looked bad, arguably lost, against an extremely weak opponent because of ring rust. But he dug deep late.

The look on loma’s face when the ref raised his arm told us a lot.

Loma will surely be much better his next fight. He will make up for this performance. Haney better be ready.

I wonder if Haney will be negatively affected his next fight at 135. He looked his best in the Kam rematch, but you know making 135 is killing him

Haney is too big for the weight. He looked unhealthy at the Kambosos weigh in.

Lomo is too small at the weight. He's never looked right at the weight.

Its an intriguing matchup and one where each boxers ability to actually make the weight comfortably probably plays a big role in the winner.

This is my assessment as well. Loma was best at 130, Haney is big at 135 and will likely move up by end of 2023. Haney wouldn’t be the biggest puncher Loma faced, which would help him, but Haney has good footwork and knows how to manage the distance between him and his opponents. When he can’t, he clinches. Loma would have an easier time with Tank, Garcia, and Shakur.

Haney is exactly the same height and reach as Commey, who I never thought Loma would dominate.

When I first heard that Arum was pitting Loma with Richard, I thought this old man must have decided to abandon the Vasiliy ship. I later learned that Loma was actually thankful he was getting Commey for his comeback fight.

Another solid point. Haney could do the same thing we saw with Shakur in his last fight- lose belts on scales but wins fight.
