    Think Haney is just too big.

    He'll end up fighting at 147, whereas Loma could probably still make 130.

    Almost reminds me of Gamboa-Crawford.

    I've just made it 19-19-1. Took Haney on points - I think he's just too big and too good at this point for a 35-year-old Loma. But if reports of his demise have been exaggerated, then this will be a superb fight. Rooting for Loma anyway.

    Haney's jab length speed reflexes defense and movement will give loma problems. Loma will have his moments but it won't be enough. Haney's ability to control range and dictate distance will be the difference and see Haney wining by decision.

    The biggest lie I've read all night is how Loma is gonna walk through Haney's shots. By round eight, Loma will start to realize that he is in big trouble..

    Look at this pansy weight bully (the one on the right) Imagine this guy fighting at welter he’d get sparked. People are still being fooled by promoters making weight bullies look good fighting small guys

    Part of the sport is making weight. Haney can make a weight smaller for his actual size than most people can, so he reaps the benefits.

    Haney is in a different league to Lomachenko. The American is such a talented boxer. He is a real pleasure to watch.

    People picking Haney forgot about that Jojo Diaz fight. Loma will be on top of him like a fly on hot garbage and he's a southpaw. Wrestling out of a clinch is also Lomachenkos forte, this is a nightmare matchup for Haney.

    Only thing that could save him is the large size advantage and he'd better be damn sure to it as a means of bullying Lomachenko around the ring, because potshotting at a length will not save him here
