    The robbery talk is silly. There’s no way Loma won 7 CLEAR rounds.
    he took a fight where every advantage was given to him over a much smaller man, who shouldn't really even be fighting in this division. and you're desperately trying to claim he won? or just deserves credit? for what? taking a fight where he was a massive favourite and expected to win with relative ease?

    he lost, get over it.

      All his fights are the same slow start then he rallies and gives up the 12th. Its hard enough to bag rounds fighting in bursts as it is.
      Sorry dan_cov but what are you talking about? Was it really a slow start? Going by stats, four of the first six rounds were basically even. Did Haney had a slow start too? I am interested in your perspective

        Once he fights people his size he'll get found out.

        He's good but he'll never be great.
        The same can be said about Loma- very good but not great.

          Well no I personally thought Loma won but he deserves credit for taking this fight let alone winning it which he did, he got a close decision in a fight that could have gone either way.

          I think it’s yourself who needs to get over it, because Haney got the decision and it was an either way fight so Haney is the one who won.

              You can repeat close and competitive till the cows come home, it wont change the fact that the wrong man won. so yeah, i wont be giving credit to an undeserved winner.

                Was competitive but clear. Loma is a higher class than Haney and it really showed down the stretch.

                  Lomenchenko outgutted this guy down the stretch. Haney was supposed to had retired this guy.

                    They spent all build up trying to say he only had a one-two and would clinch all night. He proved you's wrong!
                    He fought a good, clean fight, he was aggressive, he went to the body well, he showed a good punch variety.

                    He lost the tenth, he got his ass taxed in the eleventh what did he do? He come back like a true champion & he took the twelfth. They even try to dismiss this and are saying Loma won the twelfth, no bull**** did he!

                    This kid has never ducked a fight, he deserves better than this media assassination attempt.

                    I've said it on here for yrs no matter what this kid does he will never get his due, like Floyd Mayweather people will buy his fights out of hate in hope he losses.
                    unfortunately for Haney he was in a. No win situation with certain fans…if he beats loma decisively they will say loma got old and Haney cherry-picked him

                    these are the same type of guys who told us golovkin was an atg middle….remember before golovkin fought jacobs? They said Danny was scared and that’s why he asked for more money “this guy don’t deserve more money he’s a joke he got knocked down by Sergio Moria for ****s sake hahaha”….then after the fight it was “not fair jacobs was a crusierweight come fight night”

                    these same clowns…and I do mean clowns because they are just that in the truest sense…said canelo was scared of golovkin and if he ever grew a set of balls golovkin would end his career savagely..then thr minute the first fight got signed it was “ya we know canelo waited him out to get old”….the. After first fight it was “he ran all night he was scared”…then canelo stood in front of golovkin all night 2nd time and it was “crooked judges”

                    this “type” always has a gripe and excuses ready to go…u know the type I’m talking about

                      great post, his footwork surprised me as well, he was with loma every step and it took loma 9 rounds to figure haney out because he didnt prepare for that kind of fight from haney, no hugging, props to the guy... ALSO, all these names people are now throwing at haney to move the goal post like TANK and SHAKUR need to fight the top at 135, haney has done it weather you like him or not. boxing fans are the worst which is why I stay away
