    That's what the breadman article appears to be. Loma fans are still quite emotional.

    I'm sure this will last as long as the Andre Ward whining.

        From Google:

        No, excessive holding is not allowed in boxing and is considered a foul. While incidental clinching can occur, intentional and excessive holding is illegal. A referee will typically issue a warning and then deduct points for a fighter who continuously holds, and can even lead to disqualification.

          There are many reasons why ppl dislike Haney

          - Complains/bitches like a little girl
          - Not humble
          - Thinks he is better than he actually is
          - Hugs too much
          - Lacks the finisher's mentality
          - Both him and his dad are annoying
          - Fashion sense is terrible

          anything else?

              “So it’s not a good look to insinuate a fighter is ducking you, then that fighter comes to your home state, calls you out in front of the world, and you start exploring “other” options. That’s what Team Ortiz did.”.

              The usual demographic of bozos will ignore this fact and continue to defend the avoidance.

                Haney is a talented fighter with a glass jaw. No one that I have seen cares about his skin color. Some people don't like his personality, which is fair because he acts like a killer and then he illegally holds for much of the fight, blatantly, and he is just allowed to do it. Why? You tell me.

                This whole "people don't like Haney because he is a boisterous young black guy" routine is absolutely laughable. People love Bud and I specifically have for years, people love Itauma, people loved Spence.....etc etc. People like a fighter because he goes in to hurt their opponent and isn't afraid to mix it up.

                Haney and others can be respected for their skill level, but in the history of boxing, no fighter who fights to not get hit, hugs and clenches constantly and barely ever stops anyone has ever been a big star. That style makes for boring fights to the casual fan. Yes if you train and know the sport well, a technical defensive fight can be impressive. I don't put Haney in that category because hugging isn't all that technical. It is technically cheating.

                Can we please stop this "poor Haney never gets respect" routine? He is boring to watch and acts like he is some monster fighter. NO ONE who wins as he wins is going to excite people or get much respect from fans. Period.
                A banned substance that he tested 60x past the allowable limit for. But sure, let’s say it was a tiny bit,
                pretended that it’s not a banned substance in a combat sport for a reason, and make excuses for the cheater strictly because we dislike Haney.

                  I am not a huge fan of Garcia. I am not a huge fan of Haney.

                  Garcia tested for a tiny amount that is consistent with a tainted otc supplement. He gave his supplements to the lab and two of them tested positive for trace amounts and Ostarine was not listed on the labels Ostarine is sometimes used in supps in trace amounts and not listed.

                  Garcia did not look any different than his previous fights. He made weight. He did not appear more muscular or show super powers. He fought like he always does. Haney got caught and beat up.

                  I believe Haney was bigger in the ring. And as Prograis said, Haney was huge when they fought and he accused him of IV usage.

                  They are all looking for advantages. Haney didn't get hurt because he Ryan was the Incredible Hulk. He thought Ryan ****** and he got caught with a hook being overconfident.

                    ryan was 3 pounds overweight. it's haney's fault for allowing the fight to happen after that because he thought it would be easy and money was great, of course.

                      You are correct, I misremembered. Now that I am thinking about it Garcia looked less in shape than normal and was braggin about drinking every night.

                      Garcia is a d u m b a s s. Watching the fight it was clear Haney got very overconfident.

                      Haney is a fighter that would be easy to like if he just learned to stop holding and clinching all fight and if he showed some humility. His ego is embarrassing.

                      Garcia has power and talent. He is just a real idiot who has no self control.
