    Big deal. Still not a power puncher.

    If you bringing up amateur fights at this point for Loma you’re a fanboy and admit your bias.

    Haney would be favored. And rightfully so at this point.

    Only 3 of those are particularly great. That just proves the point.

    Holyfield, Lewis, Wlad. The rest are respectable but not true ATGs. I'll wait 'till Usyk retires to see.

    Yes great in my mind means 10/10 a a fighter, however all three of those fighters are/were better than Haney P4P, while Loma is on that elite tier in terms of skill.

    Haney accomplished nothing so far. He beat a mediocre opponent Kambosos and got the belts. His undisputed status is not true.

    At this point in their careers , Haney is the logical choice. Bigger, younger, stronger and he can box very well. As far as power goes Haney chooses to box and not dig his toes into the mat and deliver power punches. But neither does Loma, as the bigger man I'd say Haney hits harder but power probably won't factor into who wins.

    Even though Loma is a 126 pounder campaigning in the land of giants who hold huge physical advantages over him and weigh close to 2 divisions, 2 or 3 divisions more than him he has either hurt, dropped, stopped or KO'd everyone he's fought at 135 with the exception of Teofimo and he only really fought half a fight in that one.

    Linares was dropped and KO'd
    Nakatani was brutalized, dropped multiple times and stopped
    Commey was dropped heavily and close to being stopped
    Pedraza was dropped x 2 and very close to being stopped
    Campbell was dropped and badly hurt numerous times
    Crolla was sparked out on his face

    And Loma could've stopped Commey, Campbell and Pedraza if he was 100% which he wasn't for Pedraza or really wanted to. Campbell had to hold on for dear life and rugby tackle him to the canvas to avert getting stopped.

    Conversely, Haney is a giant beating up on leprechauns he outweighs by 2 or 3 divisions and he's never even wobbled any of the world champions he's fought, even the ones who had a reputation for being chinny back in their primes against opponents their own size like Gamboa and Linares who he fought shot, old inactive versions of and both of whom have been stopped in every single one of their other combined 10 losses.
