    What odds did you get?

      Yes, Loma has a shot but if I was forced to choose a winner now then I would have to give the slight edge to Devin Haney and favor him to outpoint Lomachenko.

        You guys are forgetting that Loma lost to Teofimo Lopez; A man who cannot fight. if he couldn't defeat Lopez then what make you all so confident that he defeats Devin Haney; A man who is a much better fighter than Teo?

          How? What would his gameplan be to do so?

              Don't get me wrong! I am not dis*****g the skill level of the two. On paper; Loma is the better fighter. I am not questioning that. I just believe that Haney is the more hungry and confident fighter. In addition, I believe he wants it a lot more too.

              Also, when you factor in his overall natural ability; I have Devin winning this fight. We can't trust Loma. We do not know which version of Loma is going to show up. He has already laid down and quit before against a man who cannot even fight in Teofimo Lopez.

              You asked what would his gameplan be to do so? Devin doesn't need one. All he needs to do is show up.

                yes.

                got his wind. loma's an older fighter. teo is a young lion. "got his wind" doesnt just refer to physicals. its mental. if you ever box before you would know what im talking about. the mental game takes a toll as much as the physical. mind and body are connected, are one. work in unison.

                im worried more about the scoring and judges more than loma's tactics.

                haney is the younger fighter who will do more business in the future while loma is on the way out. judges depending on which promoter bought them (usually the main promoter's fighter which haney is for this fight) will give rounds to boxers who didnt really do much but hit hug and run and crooked judges call it ring generalship.

                  He laid down and quit? LOL, the guy whooped on Teo the last half of the fight, how is that quitting? He got off to a terribly slow start but he never quit. Quitting is what you saw last saturday from Ryan when he stayed on a knee shaking his head to the ref until he got to the 10 count.

                    I know people do not like excuses but Loma had his shoulder injury before the fight so he only was able to use that arm once his shoulder warmed up which took him about 6 rounds. The second half of the fight, Loma was busting teo up.

                      A fighter doesn’t have to take a knee or retire on their stool in order to quit. Spotting your opponent the first seven rounds of a fight is my definition of lying down also.

                      Let’s examine why he didn’t engage Teo for the first seven rounds of the fight. It was because he lacked confidence and was a broken fighter.

                      I don’t know what fight you were watching because I saw the latter half ofTeo/Loma as even. Loma may have won the majority of those rounds but he did not dominate.
