Loma wasn't robbed

ive never seen anyone counter loma so effectively. he was getting caught on the way in over and over. i think he hurt haney more than haney hurt him, but haney put some vicious body shots on him in spots he wasnt expecting. i had it a draw, i didnt see either one establishing superiority.

 

The only thing punch stats are reliable for are punches thrown. Otherwise it´s an absolutely trash system and should be abolished.
It´s a waste of money and it really hurts the sport.

 

Fully agree.
I was just arguing over the "Loma did nothing" part. He clearly outworked Haney, so you can´t say Loma lost because he was too passive.

 

Lomachenko forced the fight from the start. Are you trying to tell me by default Haney wins if Lomachenko doesn't batter him in a round.

 

Exactly!! I was actuallly rooting for Loma to win but he just wasn't active and consistent enough in the fight. Once he saw an opening after getiing close he would fire off a 3-4 punch combo but it was only like 2 times a round. Meanwhile Devin is stabbing him to the body using jabs and crosses and keeping the jab in his face. Loma was pressing Haney alot but was not using his jab to get in close for large portions of the fight. Peoples bias just kills me! Loma lost 7 rounds to five.

 

I had it even 6-6 and there are at least 7 close Rounds so no robbery but the way Moretti scored the Rounds was ridiculous

 

Eddy Reynoso scores the bout for Lomachenko, as did the Ring's Dougie Fischer.

I'm not suggesting it's unreasonable to conclude Haney won. Rather I think it's more reasonable or in keeping with what we watched to conclude Lomachenko did.

 

Punch stats actually say something different. I saw the 1st half of the fight very close and difficult to score. Loma won his rounds more clearly in the 2nd half. As I stated before, I scored it 6-6 only by giving Haney the 12th. I would not call the decision a robbery.

 

But he was not winning the rounds

 

That you could argue a draw at best doesnt make it not a robbery. It was but clear for Loma thats why everyone thought he won.
I guess its also overall frustration to this **** happening time after time in boxing.
Real shame in big fights. Another ggg vs canelo type robbery.

Add Loma Haney to the list.

 

Anybody who actually believes Haney won this is a rank and file amateur when it comes to understanding the sport. Loma controlled the fight, he outlanded the Nose 127-110, 50 of Haneys punches were body shots that had no effect on Loma and most were effectively countered or only landed with an extended arm-meaning nothing behind them, Loma was never hurt by Haney while Haney was throttled in the 10th and 11th. The corruption of the judges scorecards says it all, giving Haney most of the rounds in the second half when Loma was clearly dominant. No, this was indeed a disgusting robbery, as virtually all fans, press, and fighters have stated Loma won.
