Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: The People Saw What Happened, Haney is Not a Pound-For-Pound Fighter!

[BillyBoxing]

I had Haney taking it on the final round to win 115-113. This is the second time in a massive fight (Lopez was the first) that Lomachenko had a shocking Round 12. I think he needs to put more thought into that, rather than crying robbery, which it absolutely was not. Nash out

He should go back to 130, he IS fighting younger, longer, fresher, bigger guys who can fight. Haney had 36 hours to rehydrate to probably middleweight +154.

He fought Téo, Ortiz, Haney, what's next? Dude is a dog

He's still having close fights wich IS impressive.
when Loma fought smaller Rigo, he beat him UP.

Loma would clean UP 130 IMO

Loma is stubborn, he must admit those young talents are too good too Big for him.

Shakur probably beat UP Loma.

[BillyBoxing]

He won't agree with you that Teo beat him. Loma has never been short changed rather he's the most privileged fighter and a sore loser who has wasted his prime beaten up teenagers in the amateur. He's a great fighter but nothing extraordinary.

He disagrees but his a'ss lost. But if Loma's name was Alvarez Canelo he would be one loss rather than 3.

Tank IS a priviligied fighter, fighting in his country, cherry picking smaller guys or bigger guys with rehydration clause, he's being fed on a golden plate.


Loma has to do more, because he's not pampered by his promoter who thrown him with Salido in his second pro fight and Russel in his 3rd, had to move UP to fight bigger guys with no rehydration clause.
Loma has fought much better Oppo than Tank

Whether you had for loma or haney, this proved most of us wrong and proved loma right, Haney isnt a P4P fighter and he's not the best lightweight around.

If Haney isn’t pound for pound then Loma isn’t either. Haney certainly isn’t all that, so why couldn’t Loma win clearly?

[champion4ever]

Well he defeated you Loma. So he must be P4P. You lost the fight because Haney was outclassing you in the early rounds before gassing himself out in the second half of the fight and you still failed to get a tired and exhausted Devin out of there. You fought a good fight but you did not do enough in my judgement in order to win decisively.

[SimpleTouchee]

Don't worry lomachenko you're going fight for a vacant WBO lightweight title next.

[SimpleTouchee]

How can you be a hall of famer if your best win is Gary Russell Jr and Jorge Linares.

[Ganondorf]

Yeah but I don't like the fact that he is not giving Haney praise, Haney fought his hearth out and showed IQ.

Yeah Loma uncharacteristically showed a little bit of a class deficit here to me.

I wasn’t in the ring so I’m only giving perspective from the outside.

The fight was extremely competitive.

[Ganondorf]

Haney praised Lomachenko over and over again.

[Ganondorf]

i always thought haney was the worst out of the three (tank and stevenson) but i thought he would have enough to beat a past prime loma pretty easy,

Lol the worst?

Past prime Loma would have beat the hell out of Ryan Garcia to me!

Haney is the undisputed Champ for a reason. He won the damn fight against a legend.

Show some respect.

[SplitSecond]

That was a great night of boxing. Respect to Devin Haney and Loma for a war. And I really liked Nakatani vs Maloney. Lots of heart + skill involved which is the reason I enjoy boxing. Not mismatches and cherrypicks. No one was compromised.
