Haney lost but it wasn’t an outright robbery. Wrong man won the decision. Won’t be the first or last time in boxing

So let’s get this right if anyone thought Haney won and Loma lost they are a racist?

It wasn't clear, as evidenced by the judges. Lomachenko outlanded Haney because of 2 strong rounds. The 10th and 11th. Each won the "landed punches" category 6 times.
It was a close fight.Comment

It wasn't an outright robbery, but an injustice.
The question is how aqcuiescent should we be about "wrong man won the decision"?
The more we quietly chalk it up with a shrug as just another bad decision, the more we empower the people who are being paid to make the bad decisions.
There has to be a way to improve how fights are judged, be it more judges, more objective, transparent measures, I don't know. What I do know is that if we just shrug and say "won't be the first or last time" nothing will change.Comment

This is a great comment. It wasn't a one way beating, but it was a clear win for Loma. Some fights can go either way, and some fights are close, but have a clear winner. This fight fits the latter for Loma.

Haney had two fights with Kambosos Junior, which gained him big credit.
As a competitor he should maybe do the same with Lomachenko 'I think even if he lost the rematch, overtime that move to make the rematch would gain him admiration'.
Haney is most likely best off making the rematch, then fighting Tank Davis before moving up to 140 pounds.
Note: Lomachenko vs Haney was a close fight, but it was no beat down or domination from ether fighter. Haney was not decked, and was never really hurt badly 'That is why I think, the rematch may actually be easier for him to prepare for than the first fight.
Haney was venturing into the unknown during the first fight, as Lomachenko skill level was something Haney had never experienced or seen before inside of the ring. But now Haney has experience of competing at such a high level 'If Haney is a great fighter and competitor he will learn from the fight'.
Lomachenko for me will fight the same way in the rematch, accept he will try to increase his intensity and tempo.
I gave Lomachenko a big chance to win the first fight, and I never saw Haney as a 100% certain for the win.
Lomachenko needs to confront Haney man to man a physical confrontation, and demand a rematch 'Sometimes old school tactics are necessary. Especially when fighters think yabbering on social media is being direct' etc.
