    Yeah, as said, it wasn't just a regular shove he was trying to hurt Loma. You might be onto something about him wanting to injure Loma's shoulder. Either way, he could've and may have caused him whiplash with that shove

    Most shoves just seem like that. A shove. Haney used a palm strike, with full snap/speed and hit a relaxed Lomachenko who for sure got some whiplash, and a good palm strike, which is compact bones is underrated, especially when thrown sharply and not as a push.

    If Haney concentrated his palms on the sternum of Lomachenko he might’ve gotten a KD.

    yep more of a double palm strike than a shove. Right near the clavicle

    God, I hate those two. Talk and talk and say absolutely nothing. Bradley is the worst ever, just makes up stuff and states it as fact. Ward is just a total bore.

    Wait so he has more power in his palms than in his knuckles?

    Realistically, you can't expect all people that fight for a living to carry themselves with much class.

    To be fair. In the ring he doesn’t get to load up on an unassuming opponent.

    Lemme guess: Loma remains unbeaten no matter what since the low bloss doesn't count obviously, neither the one where he was injured and prepping for surgery, not this where Haney, labeled as pillow fist by sLomo himself and unable to knock ppl. down landing flush on the chin, whiplashed him by a push to his chest. :ciappa:

    ... right.

    I can see how a keyboard warrior would come to that conclusion but for someone over 400 fights and zillions of heated face-offs and touching up, you can bet the house Loma was assuming anything and everything 3 inches away from a shouting opponent.

    Here's a mere press conference not even a post-scales face-off. Is this really news to ppl.?

    Fighter’s get caught by surprise at face-offs all the time. The rule is you’re not allowed to actually strike the other person. How did Chisora not see the glassing come vs Haye or Vitali dodge Chisora’s slap, but instead react in sheer shock? Obviously there’s a line here.

    It was a cheap shot no doubt and the commission's on it. But to turn this on a pro-Loma forum into a pre-excuse of a possible loss reveals major insecurities. Trust your man!

    A professional fighter with decades of experience expects heat when his opponent paid to destroy him walks up right to his face shirtless and starts shouting. Ever saw Mayweather getting caught cold? It's silly to assume everyone is always going to pay fair, and that silly assumption lead to the Salido loss. Do you think Lomachenko has always played fair since? Why did Teo also say he's bending the rules?

    I'd say it's the woke culture that would excuse his actions.

    But if Lomachenko is what some people claim him to be, he should kick Haney's ass all over the ring.

    The fighter who shoves should be levied a massive fine (which goes to his opponent) and charged with simple assault. Hopefully this would stop it.
