    I’d like Loma to win because most of his fights have been great to watch, but I think he’s just a little past it now. Haney’s a boring weight bully who takes advantage of the clinch way too much, but this is probably what will get him the win against Loma. I’m predicting a boring/negative fight, where Haney just does enough to squeak out a decision.

    Its a hell of a fight, and I'm getting more hyped by the minute, but I'm Rolling with Haney, I think this will be his signature performance and hopefully he gets his respect from all the naysayers.

    I can understand dumb teenagers and millennials doing it but what respectable adult man could possibly support a guy like Haney?

    It's okay to support fighters because of their ethnicity.. there's nothing wrong with that.. the majority here do it

    I voted for Loma. As someone else mentioned, I somewhat have a sympathetic view that I wish former elite champions deserve at least one last great victory of their careers (after they start slipping past their best). Especially for Loma since he spent time gathering 3/4 bets towards undisputed, before Teo won the fight. In some ways, Haney (and Kambosos) piggy backed off some of the work of Loma to be undisputed simply off one fight.

    I don’t hate Haney tho, wish him the best!

    I love Lomachenko. He my favorite current fighter. I am also a big fan of Haney’s skills , which along with his height and reach make him quite a challenging foe for Loma. This be the first pay per view bout I will purchase since Mayweather-Pacquiao.

    I like both, but i would rather see Lomenchenko vs Tank, so I'll go with Loma.

    Than you are not boxing fan, it makes you a race fan. which is not good in my book.

    I like boxer based on their skill and ring IQ, their behavior in/out of the ring.

    Of course they do but in this one i will root for Haney for the reasons I have stated. I quite like Loma but have little time for his fans referred to as the Lomasexuals who worship at his altar.
