5/20 ESPN+ PPV: Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenko (Undisputed Lightweight Championship)

[NormanConnors]

this fight went how I thought it would go after going back and watching haneys last 5 fights.

he fought the wrong fought

I think he does a lot better in a rematch, but his lack of power really hurt him, the fact the he landed all them body shots and didnt slow Loma at all says a lot.

Loma was definitely slowed, breh started clinching excessively mid fight, but got a bit of a 2nd towards the end, Haney was a bit fatigued himself and didn't press further, his pops telling him he was winning the fight didn't help matters though.

Christina, holy shyt

Haney lost this fight but it's money/politics

 

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

Haney is at least 1 or 2 levels below both Shakur and Tank Davis.

Never quite got the hype that surrounded him. He never beat anyone good and by the eye test, there was nothing extraordinary about him.

For the era that we are in, Haney is a great tactician. At least Floyd made you realize that it was hot in here if you want to fight in the pocket. Haney was the bigger man, did all that body work and Loma still came forward. He has no power and that is going to catch up to him. What does Tank or Shakur need to be scared of when Loma is moving up weight classes and was pressing forward most of the night?

Cacs gon find some way to use the “this why UFC is taking over” line after tonight lmaoo

 

[NormanConnors]

Devin has to get a new lead trainer. There were times he literally looked like he had no idea what to do in there. Bill wasn’t doing anything but telling him keep doing what he was doing.

He was looking good with Floyd Sr.

 

[patscorpio]

devin at least completed the cypher from all that 135 fukkery

 

[CodeBlaMeVi]

Definitely agree with this. He's fortunate that Loma didn't have power like that because he was getting caught too clean with a lot of those punches.

I argued that his defense was overrated and gets touched a lot and flush but I was labeled a h8r

 

[<<TheStandard>>]

I'm telling y'all this fight wasn't a good look for Haney

It's gonna have people side eyeing him

A rare moment when you see an undisputed champion win against a top 5 contender and legit move down people's rankings.

That's the tweet. They're the special ones

 

[The Ruler 09]

Devin Haney is creating a great legacy considering he's only 24, congratulations to him and the team.

 

[Loose]

S/o to ward, boy a legend.

 

[Umoja]

People saying Loma won. What 7 rounds did you give him?

 

[CHICAGO]

Ward is doing too much. This entire panel is doing too much, Loma lost straight up. Didn’t do enough to beat the champ in his hometown

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

WARD IS GIVING HANEY HIS
FULL SUPPORT AND
THE WHOLE PANEL IS SAYING
IT WASNT A ROBBERY

Dev always gets so many ppl in their feelings its crazy.

For a boring pillow fisted fighter, who is not a draw who has a bunch of belts that no one cares about he sure knows how to bring the emotions out of ppl
