Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: Haney Is Strong, Smart & Will Be Hard Fight - But He's Not Comparable To Mayweather

[boxingitis]

The fight is but a few week's away, we will see then who's analysis was correct. Comparing Nakatani a walk in puncher without much of a defense, to a master boxer like Haney is just a mistake.

He is not master boxer. He couldn't even stop an old ass Linares. He beat nobodies. Old ass Gamboa. Don't say Kambosos is great.

Hold that thought, the fight is only a few weeks away, time will bear out who was right, and who was wrong.

Haney has a similar boxing style to Floyd but he doesn't have the complete package Floyd had, I can see Haney unravelling if you hit the button and take him into deep water, Floyd never did unravel he was great in many areas.

I don't think Loma has the power to offset the size but he has the skills to make it interesting.

Yeah he has a long way to go before he gets to cherrypick on Floyds level. First he has to come up with a buckdancing moniker gimmick to make people want to see him lose on a larger scale

Let the hate go bro. Floyd’s a top 5 GOAT and the most skilled boxer EVER. Let it go

Haney's better than mayweather and he don't run and hug in the fight.

it would be in his best interest to hit and clinch and use floyd's exquisite spoiling tactics.

[The Big Dunn]

I agree with all the statements in the thread title.

I believe Haney will be too big and young for Lomachenko, but he is no Floyd Mayweather.

Agree with this. I would add Haney is very skilled and may be too good at this stage.

Haney should win this fight. He's in his prime and looks 2 weight classes bigger than Loma. If it goes to the cards, which it's likely to do and it's a close decision win for Haney even that will look bad.

He's definitely not a top 5 GOAT and you don't need to be a "hater" to know that. There are many more boxers who fought and beat more high level opponents in their prime and numerous times at that. The new generation of boxing fans just see Floyd's undefeated record and think that automatically makes him "TBE". It doesn't no matter how many times he and his cheerleaders say it, it doesn't make it so.

Yes sir. It's just a matter who shows up that night. Very close fight to call, that's why is very interesting. I believe either one can win. If Loma is able to eliminate or go around Devin's jab, he will have some success. Also, stop Devins clinch tactics.

I have a feeling Haney tastes the canvas in this fight, but ultimately survives and wins on points.
