    When exactly has Loma ever had his ass kicked? Even in losing, he's usually the man finishing the far stronger of the two. Guys who are past prime don't dominate Nakatani, Commey and Ortiz. Haney has dominated Kambosos, big whoop... Loma would stop him, are we going to act like he didn't struggle against Linares, Diaz, Santiago and ****ing Gamboa?

    Just look how much holding Haney was doing against a hobbled stumpy armed ancient munchkin with an eggshell mandible, who he never even stunned. Yet people say he's going to beat down a guy who's 100 times more skilled and 300 times more agile.:facepalm:

    Still can't believe over here in the UK we've had both Tank Garcia and Haney Loma not on PPV

    Haney-Loma is barely even PPV-worthy in the US (hence the discounted price of $60 instead of the usual $80+), let alone internationally at 5am in the UK.

    These guys aren't draws at all, there's been zero interest in this fight outside of hardcores. This fight isn't a revenue-generator, putting this on PPV would have been the nail in the coffin.

    We'll see mate. We have different predictions on this fight again. But it doesn't matter who's right and who's wrong. You and I don't take it seriously, do we?

    I like both fighters but I think Loma is being slept on. He won't win on points bc Haney has a much better value for boxing in the long run, but I can definitely see him winning by KO. In any case, I think it's a very good match up and any guy can win. Let's hope for a great fight; boxing could use it and it feels like this one had proper promotion

    This fight week has been pretty eye opening, honestly.

    Haney is clearly very nervous. And Loma couldn’t be cooler. Now, that doesn’t change the fact that Haney is the much bigger man and supremely talented. But he’s still the 2nd best fighter in this contest.

    I was firmly on the side of “Loma is gonna win the fight but lose the cards” side of things. But I really think Loma is about to really put a whooping on a dude that might not quite be ready for this level of fighter or fight.

    Don't take it all that seriously, but in this case, I very much believe in my pick!

    I want Loma to win and I think he will. I've out some money on him winning in rounds 7-12 but wouldn't surprise me if he puts on such a good display and beating on Haney that they can't even screw him over on the scorecards.

    I’m now picking Loma over DH
    Haney seems shook to me and unstable after the weight in
