    In the UK watched the Sky Sports team. I'm so glad I don't have to hear Max Kellerman. He worships Andre Ward and now he's adding Haney to that

    Ward talking more about his Kovalev win then the actual fight tonight.

    For what its worth, I don't consider the fight a robbery per say.

    Nevertheless, I had it 115-113 Lomachenko. While Haney had his moments, particularly with some ripping body shots, I think Lomachenko landed the cleaner punches throughout and demonstrated better all-around craft/ring generalship.

    It's a shame he didn't get the nod he deserved to cement his place in history.

    And there won't be, just like with canelo-GGG 1 or Kovalev-Ward 1. I need to rewatch this fight because the rounds were way to close, and maybe I missed something notable.

    Kelly must be on the wagon, ‘cause that was the correct score.

    Yeah, you guys are all "**** this sport, it is over" and all that wildness. If things looked slightly different from ringside - and they often do - it will make perfect sense. So it will be interesting to see how those scorecards look.

    ANd not "No one has Haney winning" but rather I haven't sene a media card that has it for Haney yet. More important, all those cards but one had it very close (as did I). So it's not aloof, it's seeing what I expect based upon what I saw on the ring: a very close fight with two cards that reflected that.

    I don’t know about a robbery but I do think Loma won close but clearly. This is a de lahoya trinidad type loss though, all his fault for taking the 12th off. The judges were looking for any excuse to give Haney rounds and he does that. I guess he just never adjusted to the pros.

    I do too, I felt Loma won majority of the second half besides rd12, and maybe couple others. And rd1-6 was pretty tight knit, it just felt like Loma won more overall rounds total.

    The reason you want Lomato retire is because he will cannon fodder for the likes of Tank, Shakur, Martin, Keyshawn etc because they can punch.
