    It is a weird coincidence is it not?

    You haven’t. Which I appreciate. The tone of the discussion about this fight is getting worse.

    No its not the same. You just pointed out how Haney has been called huggies for so long. Also email champ. All he did was win the mando and show a willingness to fight anyone.

    Kambosos not relevant. Teo has been criticized because of his actions and because he arguably lost his last 2 fights. ( The Sandor fight isnt even arguably he lost clearly).

    Haney seems now to just be trying to elevate himself. I feel same way about that as I do with Rolly- you sometimes have to create buzz when none is there.

      I don't think it's a coincidence otherwise every black fighter would get hate Shakur doesn't get any hate at all lol Devin should thank his lucky stars he is black because if a white fighter said what he said about black folk it wouldn't have been glossed over so easily with 10k views, 21 years old or not he would be branded a racist until he retired people even dig up tweets white people say when they are underage for ammunition now listen i don't really want to go into this on a boxing forum but the victim mentality of today is hypocritical and infuriating.

      People hated teofimo for acting like he was the ultimate warrior because he beat Loma then people hated Kambosos for the same reason so people are obv gonna hate on Haney for feeling he's the man for beating Kambosos and listen Haney gets a lot of hate because he's a boring fighter doesn't matter what colour they are they are gonna get hate for that.

        Can’t disagree the response would be different had someone else made similar comments.

        I am not so sure that it is because he is boring. Again, his feeling he is the man imo is fair given the journey.

          Fair play man well we will see Saturday if he's the real deal or not if he beats Loma he will get credit from me and if his arrogance is justified or not let's just hope it's a good fight.

          4am for me so hope it's worth it lol.

              Cool. That is all I’m asking. Whoever wins give credit.

              If there is garbage, ok we can discuss.

              I am just pushing back against some of the worst fans that have already decided a Loma loss is due to cheating.

                You’re being phony. More posters have said that about Devin. I dont see how Devin saying that to Loma directly is an excuse.

                Completely untrue. I haven’t responded to anyone about how he looked at the last fight. The excuses I have criticized are the ref, judges, holding, claims of being dirty.

                If you have seen any of my posts about who will win, I am picking Haney but think Loma is a live dog that can win and will not be an easy opponent.

                The winner will have earned the win. Yes, it is ok if Haney loses.

                He hasn’t turned into anything of the sort. He’s selling the fight. He also was forced to take a terrible deal to even get the shot. He won both. He felt Loma avoided him before the emeritus designation.

                He is the champ. He won fairly. He’s been avoided by every other top LW. He has earned the right to feel highly about himself.
                Sounds like you will be making excuses for him in the fights (or ducks/cherrypicks) to come

                  This is the result of excessive holding becoming normal in this sport and nothing is being done about it. It's like one fighter is being aided by the third man in the ring. Haney here is expecting the ref to tolerate such tactic. His accusation is specific and it's not about using elbows, punching below the belt, etc. Meaning, it won't happen if holding is not allowed.
