Comments Thread For: Did Bigger Make Better? Ryan Garcia Overpowers Devin Haney in Shocker

[Rockenator]

No. He did not. Haney seems he's squeezing 147 frame into 140. His punch resistance is not good at the weight. He lost at the weigh-in. I told my peeps who are casuals that his chin will not hold up.

At 147 lbs., bigger boxers will land heavier shots on an already suspect Haney chin. Haney is best at boxing, moving and hoping for a decision. Haney's punching power? Haney never had a punch to begin with. So adding more weight to his frame will make him less of a puncher than he already is - which is a 2 on a scale of 10, being generous.

Yeah but what if Garcia had cut to 140 like Haney? Fight was not on an even playing field. And I don't even like Haney. Just trying to keep it real and fair

Did Lomachenko and Haney weight the same fight night?

Let you go the first time, but why do you insist on bringing race into the fight? Do you have a problem with black people? All that happened is obvious for everyone to see. It is no conspiracy that Ryan came in overweight and overpowered Haney who looked weak during the weigh-in.

Ryan didn't do anything outside those three knockdowns. It is more of a Haney's loss than Ryan's win. Haney should have been more disciplined because he knew Ryan only had one left hand he likes to swing from time to time.

Well I tried but everytime I think I'm out they keep draggingggggggg me back in. Lol. Does this clown really want me to go through boxings history of black vs Mexican fights. He really doesn't want me to do that does he? That mothafuqer didn't even come out of the house until a year after Tank ko'd Ryan. Smh

This is what happens to weight bullies when they fight someone their own size

[Smash]

haney has made a mistake with his weights

he should actually be moving down the scale to 130 instead

last fight with prograis he was coming into his man strength and filling out into the weight

now hes a sitting duck at this weight

what next?

[deathofaclown]

Boots will do bad things to him.

I'm sure he would

That said, I'd tell him to fix thar horrible flaw he has of pulling back with his chin very high. So many fighters have caught boots flush because of it. None of them had the hand speed of Garcia either.

If boots doesn't improve on that, Garcia would certainly hit him plenty while he's still in there.

Haney was always lacking in the chin and power departments and Garcia always had speed and power so I don't think the weight made the difference.

Regardless, it was a surprisingly exciting fight. I scored it the same as the one judge. 114 - 110.

One good thing about last night is that whenever a boxer comes in over weight, whether it's your favorite fighter or his opponent, we can never use that the fighter came in overweight and that's the only reason he won. Because the complete absence of acknowledgement that Ryan shrugged off training for this fight has made all future arguments null and void! So the next fight that YOUR guy comes in on weight and his opponent and goes on to win the fight I dont want to hear "he only won because....." please STFU!!

You don't know what you are talking about. Tell me something Garcia did outside those three knockdowns?

You're too ****** to comprehend anything outside your pea brain. He lost the fight so deal with it moron. You're an annoying breed of human. And you just won't go away. Idiots breed more Idiots.
