    Since Bob can't make Loma a franchise champ the plan is to duck Haney

    Bob told Eddie & Haney to their face Haney isn't fighting Loma because he signed with the wrong promotional company. So now he moves back down to clout chase Tank because he knows Tank is a star and that's his only option for a PPV fight.





    Here is Arum justifying Canelo as franchise champ by saying he's big enough he shouldn't have to fight mandatories. Then he goes on to say Loma isn't big enough yet but once he beats Campbell and Commey he should be named franchise champ so he doesn't have to fight his WBC mandatory. Which will be Haney.



    What part don't y'all understand about Arum doesn't want Loma to fight Haney? He's said it loud and clear!

    Wilder: *says nothing*

    Hearn: The WBC will make Wilder franchise champ so he can duck Whyte

    Everybody: That's right! Wilder is trying to become WBC franchise champ to duck Whyte

    Arum: I want Lomachenko franchise champ so he doesn't have to fight his mandatory (Haney)

    Everybody: Oh. That's different doe

      From what I've heard, Haney was planned as part of the tournament until Teo tucked tail and ran.


      I don't doubt Loma will be jumping between 130 and 135, but not to duck anyone. I believe he always mentioned the plan being to be a belt holder at both divisions like Floyd was at 147 and 154


      plus, Haney isn't the mandatory yet. When he is, you know that Bob will outmaneuver Hearn again. Hearn is allergic to winning purse bids or getting Loma on DAZN

        At 130 he can fight Berchelt, Valdez, Herring, and eventually Stevenson. Not a bad lineup. I have no reason to think Haney is more talented than Stevenson.

          So first he's ducking Rigo, then he's ducking Teofomo, and now he's ducking Haney? So a guy who is willing to fight Tank, Berchelt, and Valdez is ducking Haney now? This is about money, and Haney brings nothing to the table. Once Loma is undisputed at 135, he can consider going back to 130 for bigger fights since he will have cleaned out 135 and there aren't any more money fights at LW.

            Arum told Haney & Eddie to their face Loma isn't fighting Haney if he becomes mandatory. Can't get any clearer than that

              At 135 he can fight Haney, his mandatory. Just like he fought his mandatory Toyota Corolla.

                He wanted to fight for the WBC belt. He knows Haney will be his mandatory. But he'll unify with Lopez/Commey winner then dip out on Haney, his mandatory.

                  This is why Bob supported the franchise designation. He doesn't want Loma facing Haney. He specifically mentioned Loma as a person who deserves the franchise title. It's clear as day what the plan is. The plan doesn't involve Haney as Bob has already said.
