Comments Thread For: Devin Haney: I've Been Begging For Loma Fight Since 2019; He Didn't Wanna Fight Me

If Lomachenko fought Haney back then, instead of Lopez, fans would have attacked Loma much more viciously for ducking Lopez. It would have been the same garbage we are seeing now. It's a fkd up sport with fkd up fans.

Not really because Haney was the most ducked fighter in the division at the time. Teo probably would’ve lost to one of the other contenders

Nah. The ducking accusations were already being lobbed against Loma
when Lopez and his dad just started calling Chenko out.
Ask that guy Curt Henning. He was leading the pack.

I think it's a PBC thing doe, even though Haney is not with Haymon/SHO.
I don't know why when PBC haven't even tried giving any offer to Haney.
He was a free agent for years and Arum and Hearn were the only people
who gave him opportunities to be where he is today. PBC got nothing for him.

PBC only had one elite lightweight at the time in Tank & he never expressed desire to fight Haney. Haney & his father are just gaming the networks and promoters and rightly so.. he’ll be a free agent again soon.

There was no money in fighting Haney in 2019 - 2022. It's only a compelling fight because Haney is undisputed. Otherwise no one is talking about him.

Haney was actually selling more tickets than Teo & had better viewership and better purses. But

So Tank didn’t duck or avoid Loma because they were on different networks right?
Damn. Loma fans picking and choosing again.

A normal fan like me don't say such thing until offers were made and were turned down. A normal fan is always aware fights are not always easy to make in this sport. Unlike you people, I can't just say a certain fighter ducked this and that fighter when offers were not even made. See the difference?

Loma fans are the most delusional fans in the boxing universe. Do you guys even watch boxing? Nakatani who just got stopped in 6 rounds by Yoshino? Teo who got beaten by Kambosos & got dropped twice against Sandor Martin? ♂️ Jesus.

Triangle theories don't work in boxing. That's for casuals. You should not even have written this crap. Zepeda and Gesta beat Diaz in more daring and entertaining fashion than Haney. Gamboa got KD'd like a clown, I don't even remember how many times, then KO'd by a mediocre Pitbull Cruz. Linares got KO'd by the same guy Haney beat. Do you want me to continue? Or you prefer being delusional.

That’s false. Arum was even trying to set up a Kambosos-Loma fight in 2019/2020 ♂️.
Loma just didn’t want Haney.

How does Arum wanting to set up Loma vs Kambosos in 2019 make what I said about Loma and Haney false? I can't see any connection there. But then, I am a logical guy and I think with my mind, not my emotions.

This post makes zero sense..... Loma's career wasn't built of IG or Hip Hop followers.......How is Devin the one who was "Green" when even in 2019 he had more lightweight bouts under his belt than Loma has total fights today....

Devin had nothing to bring to the table in 2019 for Loma to get his handlers to beat down the door of Haney's. Loma had the titles... Teo was the one who actually wanted the fight and made it happen.

What gets me is that these new age fans keep supporting the silliness that these "young lions" are being avoided by more established fighters simply because they won't drop their actions to improve their legacy and fight a kid who've accomplished nothing nor did anything to deserve to get a shot before other fighters. Devin hadn't been in the ring with a world champion until 2020 and that was against Old Man Gamboa who he went 12 rounds with. How was Devin Haney more deserving of an opportunity that Luke Campbell, whom Loma fought in 2019.

You apparently don't know how to read, son. I was referring to Tank vs. Garcia when I mentioned IG star vs. Hip Hop darling. Loma had close to 400 amateur fights. Haney had nowhere close to that. Loma was the far more experienced fighter in 2019, and that's when he would have been wise to face Devin. He will get washed in a few weeks and that will essentially be the end of his career. He'll have plenty of time to sit in an underground bunker with Zelensky and sip on Russian vodka.

devin haney has been on lomas nuts non stop since 2019, even after he lost to teo he was still demanding he fight him so much so that loma had to block him now there is this mysterious conspiracy where loma was removed from the p4p list as soon as devin managed to get his fight (finally), there should be a movie made out of this sage, or is devin just simply a broken record?

[rickJen]

Any idea Haney signing with PBC good for the sport, or just remain a free agent?
