    Egis Klimas seems to have more sway, at least you'd think so. He should be advocating to get a ref in there that will let it be a pro boxing match, not an amateur fight like Kenny Bayless would make it.

    The last thing I want to see is Devin Haney fight scared for 12 rounds. That's the LAST thing I want to see. I remember when Floyd fought Manny that way, and do you recall what Floyd's father said to him? He said: "Floyd ... man ... why are you fighting him scared?"

    We all know what it is. It's a guy who doesn't know how to fight on the inside without getting wobbled, so he fights scared now by holding the opponents, trying to pin their arms down so he can try to get a few illegal punches in. It's bull****.

    I've been calling it bull**** for years now, since Linares.

    Speaking of which, that's another piece of **** that needs to stay away from this fight. Russell Mora. He's another guy that that lets people hold and hold. He let Haney hold and hold against Linares, but when Loma fought Lopez, he broke them up straight away. That was something I noticed about that fight. I remember Loma looking at Mora confused, as if asking, why are you doing this.
    Bro this is the *** woke era I can 100% guarantee judges will go into the fight already leaning to Haney because he's the African American "we must support them if not we get canceled" mentality.

      While it's true that Haney sometimes grabs and holds, he also punches. Boxing matches are judged by the most effective punches landed, not by the best clinches executed.

        Dude...you've been here almost as long as me...you know what you just posted is bull****. You're no kid. If Bayless or one of his ilk is the ref, you know the deck is stacked heavily. If Lomachenko wins in THAT case, it will be a display of mastery. I think Haney is good. Maybe REALLY good, but he ain't fought nobody yet. He might be smoke and mirrors...I hope the officiating is beyond reproach because I want to KNOW which it is, not be here sayin' "what if"?

          Asking for a fair fight doesn't mean someone is scared. The one who's trying to leverage every advantage to the point of breaking rules is the one who's scared. You know it's true. How is asking for a property 24 hour rehydration period and for a referee to follow the rules of the sport mean someone is scared?! lmao Can someone make that make sense?

                Come on man. Let's not go down that path and bring race into it. I know for a FACT that's not true. It has nothing to do with race or the color of your skin but has everything to do with the "color of money." Also, if you strike out "African" and leave "American," then that's probably more accurate because we all know that the "local fighter" gets the benefit. It's been like that since the beginning of the sport.

                What it comes down to is who the promoter or network believes is going to bring in the most money. Whoever is the "money fighter," the "rainmaker" for the promoter and/or network is the one who gets the nod, even if it means by corruption.

                Bill Haney is a scoundrel. We all know this. He's a child of the street, so he's going to do whatever it takes to get the "W" for his son. He has spent years networking and getting "buddy buddy" with a lot of the officials, refs and judges. I do not doubt that he has a briefcase full of hundreds waiting for someone after the fight.

                Loma is not from this country, so he has an uphill battle as is. The only consolation is that on social media, surprisingly, he's the more popular fighter. I never thought I'd see the day where a lot of American's are rooting for the foreign fighter. Because of his greater popularity to Haney, I think he might have a chance of getting a fair fight, provided that you have a good ref and Haney follows the rules leading up to the fight. If that's the case, then I believe Loma wins.

                  lol! To be honest, I'd prefer Lawrence Cole over Bayless and Mora.

                    Bad enough you created a fake scenario to take all credit away from Haney should he win.

                    Now you want Loma to be given extra credit depending on who the ref is if he wins because you falsely accuse the deck of being stacked against him.

                    That is such BS. This is Haney’s last fight with TR as a co promoter. Loma remains with TR regardless.
                    Arum is not looking out for Haney in any way. If anything he’s gonna screw him on the way out as he has done before.

                    Shameful premature excuse making.

                      Stop with the BS.

                      Did you day anything when Rigo had to come up 4lbs?

                      Did you post about fairness when Arum put Walters on the shelf for a year and made the fight at 130 instead of immediately at 126?

                      You are doing everything to take away from a Haney win should it happen. Throw sh-t to the wall and see what sticks.

                      Disgraceful.
