Comments Thread For: Haney: Lomachenko Beating Will Be Worse Than If He'd Fought Me In 2019 - But He's No Slouch

Loma's a dog, and even though he's likely going to lose I believe he'll knock a lot of Haney's armor off..

[Haka]

Haney will not be able to get his groove which mainly consist of being as defensive as possible and chipping in rounds with the jab. Loma being still too fast, will sidestep Haney, throw combos on the ropes, put on pressure and rake in the rounds that way. After Loma is ahead the first half of the fight, Haney has to step up, which he is not going to do. Haney will stay as defensive as possible trying anything to survive the fight and make a good account of himself. After he clearly lost he will delusionally try to stay relevent on social media by saying he got robbed.

Loma's got this,100%. This guy hasn't been in there with anyone even close to what Loma brings. Undisputed for what? beating Kambosos? A guy who won the good Karma lottery when he fought a version of Lopez with one foot in the emergency room? Give me a break.

in my opinion this is a 50/50 fight with slight edge for Loma due to Haney's weak chin and probably less conditioning. Anyway, it's a step up for both fighters, Haney is better than anyone Loma has faced before and the same counts for Haney IMO.

Devin has been talking a lot of ****. Not sure if it's genuine or he's trying to sell the fight but he better back it up.

I wonder if he's entering his "money", heel turn phase like Floyd post DLH?

“If the [stoppage] opportunity presents itself, of course,” said Haney. “

Couldn’t stop Linares, Gamboa, but he’s going to stop Lomachenko. Lol.

Only way he stops Loma is if he uses all his extra weight advantage, leans on him, headlocks him, punches on breaks, basically tires him out physically and then retires him in the corner from exhaustion/old age.

But as far as punching goes, the jab/clinching specialist that likes to go 12 rounds of running around the ring, clinching, and just landing jabs to score points, that’s not going to lead to a KO of any top 15 Ring fighter of any weight class.

i like these kind of match ups really do enjoy that few days before weigh in happens. The way i look at it is the sweets v streets fight everyone knew G.Davis had that fight won before he signed the papers. This fight is similar but it will be more rewarding to watch Hiney go down and go down hard in the ring and after the fight. At some point in a solid match up people start to show there true beliefs on either side of the ring. Hiney is getting nervous talking trash that he can not dispose of. Mean while waits Loma quietly preparing to take the trash out on Saturday Night. It is in fights like this a fan dont mind seeing a guy they know is out of his league get disposed of in the ring, and that is where the fight is taking place "in the ring" not with words but with deeds, action inside the ropes. yea buddy this fight is about more then words, more then working your way up to a big pay day with a big mouth.
Dummy dont even know this fight will get traction n attraction for so many more reasons then some body trying to convince himself he can win by talking loud.

I see Haney with pitter-patter scoring shots then hold. The problem is that scores. If Loma wants to win rounds, he will have to get busier than he has been in recent fights. He can be hit and he will lose if not

[champion4ever]

I can see Loma giving up like he did against Teofimo Lopez. I can see him mentally breaking down and checking out of this fight early. Haney is uber confident of winning this fight. I just don't see Hi-Tech doing nearly enough to win it. Loma better bring his A game or he will lose this fight.

[El_Mero]

Lets just hope its a clean fight. Have a feeling its going to be an ugly one, especially if the ref allows Haney to excessively hold.
as for Haneys assumption, Loma wouldve wiped the floor with him. Now though, Loma has looked past it.
may the best man convincingly win

[Theshotyoudontsee]

No Devin. You are going to do the same thing you do every fight. You are going to jab hit and hold. You will never sit down on a punch. You will stink the place up. And you may win doing it.

But you sound hilarious with the trash talk, a guy who couldn't stop a flea and who is probably the most boring fighter in the last ten years. Won the belts from frickin Kambosos, who is no good, but at least tries to make it a fight.

Gut feeling Loma stops Haney. Even at 35 with the wear and tear, Loma has ten times the skill level and he is hungry.
