Don't worry Loma. Everyone knows you won and got screwed.
Scoring pro boxing isn't just about who landed more punches. That is Olympic scoring. Pro boxing is about who had better ring generealship, who landed the more crisp, harder and more accurate punches, who was the aggressor, combined with punch stats, and also knockdowns and if a fighter is visibly hurt as in reeling, out on his feet, etc.
Loma by those standards won at least 8 rounds and a case could be made for 9. I keep hearing "Haney landed body shots, Loma fans don't get it". Loma showed no signs of being bothered by the body shots, was never hurt, and many of the shots were visibly low and not legal punches. Even if all the body shots are counted, Loma landed the more accurate shots, he confused Haney all night ans he visibly hurt Haney.
This is why all the fighters are saying Loma won. By pro boxing judging standards, he obviously won. And it wasn't a draw, not at all. It wasn't "what a person likes". Loma won the fight, if we are going by actual pro boxing scoring. Olympic scoring is not pro boxing scoring.
