Your funny

Because Top Rank requested it.

Why would Top Rank request it?

Why would Top Rank request it?

Why do you think?

The fact is they did request it, though.

Lomachenko Named WBC "Franchise" Champ, Haney Upgraded To Full

boxing fans are so fickle, they cry about all these unnecessary belts but defend this franchise mess, they cry that the best need to fight the best and that fighters need to fight better comp... but when a fighter calls out another fighter they start crying n asking who has the guy fought to deserve it? weirdos i tell ya...

Devin was supposed to fight campbell for the wbc. Devin would of beat campbell for that wbc THEN l0m0 would of had to go through Devin to get that strap. bob asked to bump Devin & put l0m0 in to fight campbell for the wbc. l0m0 beats campbell then Devin is the mandatory to l0m0's wbc belt. bob asked for l0m0 to be tagged with the franchise belt. Devin is no longer the mandatory. Its ducking 101. Can you see it or do you just ignore it like everyone else who aint about it??

I see what you are saying, I just don't believe in the notion that the fighter is specifically asking the promoter to place him in a favourable position regarding this title shot, I do know TR may have this kind of pull, but if the implication is that Loma is avoiding him, I would say that's a stretch

Wait where did you get this "now wants to fight the best" from? He's BEEN called l0m0 out since Jan. Have you seen l0m0? Where is l0m0??

Hmmm. Phrasing was off. I didn't intend it to mean that he has never called out Loma previously. Only that he now has a belt, and for what it's worth, it could help him get the fights he desires.

I prefer for him to WAIT...as a REAL Haney Fan

You're 20 Years Old, WTF are you rushing for. I say Javier Fortuna and IF he gets past Javier then Luke Campbell in the UK. Those would be a GREAT TEST for young Haney and if he gets past those impressively and if he beats Campbell more impressively than Loma did then they would really be impressive for him and really apply the pressure for that fight

Lol just like Canelo "surrendered" his title to Charlo. I'll admit I'd like to see both those fights. As it is, my opinion is that Charlo's belt and Haney's belt are fake. They didn't have to beat anybody for them. Well, we both know it's WBC shenanigans. I'm content to see Loma fight the Commey/Lopez winner for all the belts, then see what he does next. It seems like his biggest money fight would be Tank Davis, not Haney.

bob told you what they want to do. They can't handle the competition at 135 so they want to move back down to 30. You right, Tank is the money fight for loma & Devin is the risk for loma.

Relatively speaking. In his previous bouts he exhibited more in his arsenal. He looked the part of a cerebral fighter. Against Santiago he never got in a rhythm and had a hard time gauging distance. Against other opponents he had an excellent back foot game, utilizing the philly shell and seamlessly integrating a counter rear upper. Didn’t see much in terms of offensive variety this time aside from lunging in for lead hooks. His right although measured with a jab rarely connected flush because of Santiago’s dipping and clinching. I’d imagine as a fighter that doesn’t watch tape and relies solely on making adjustments he would adapt better. I mean come on man, that was supposed to be a showcase fight... I don’t understand how you can think the unified champ who has beaten quantifiably superior opponents could be ducking a guy who didn’t look great against the caliber of an opponent like Santiago.

Santiago wasn't a "showcase fight" it was Devin's 1st defense against a solid ranked opponent. You guys can't lie to me, play that dumb shet for the casuals.

Also why did bob ask the wbc to let l0m0 fight campbell for the strap when it was supposed to be Devin vs campbell? Why didn't bob ask it to be l0m0 vs Devin for that strap?? After that stunt bob pulled Devin becomes l0m0's mandatory. bob pulls another stunt & asked the wbc for l0m0 to be franchised ONCE AGAIN to DUCK Devin. Are YOU pretending this didn't happen??

Loma is the Franchise Champ, a title given to champion who are elite fighters.

Loma got upgraded.

That's not an "upgrade" its a license to DUCK
