havent scored it yet, watched it for entertainment not analysis. I plan to watch it again today. Very good fight with ebbs and flows and lots of skill and athleticism on display from both. though I was not actively scoring it, felt like Haney won the majority of the early round and Lomachenko won the majority of the later rounds if it came to the 12th I felt Haney won the 12th
It's a shame that the scorecards were so off, because these two put on a classic fight. That said, it's ridiculous that while hundreds of thousands of people watching around the world had Lomachenko winning, not one of the judges gave him the nod. It's more than fishy. And then the media machine kicks into gear, telling you not to believe what you just saw with your own eyes. I don't think we're all stupid - I think money changed hands, especially in the case of Moretti.
I thought it was a very close fight with Loma winning some of his later rounds clearer than Haney's rounds. I thought an argument can be made for either fighter. I'll watch it again with no distractions and I will score it using the 10 point must system. Whatever I score will be the correct score since I am very unbiased in this match.

I thought it was a pain of a fight to score, I saw maybe 2 clear rounds for Haney and 4 for Loma. Rest really could’ve gone either way but always felt Loma looked busier, looked to outwork Haney and dis enough to nick most other rounds.
Anytime you have a fight without clear definitive rounds scoring is going to be varying, I stand by I would have preferred a draw but scored it for Haney. Neither guy clearly won the fight no matter what fans want to believe.
You could argue 8-4 for Loma. 1,3,5,7,8,10,11,12 Haney you can argue a draw for at best. Loma should have edged him on the cards though for a fair result bit this is boxing.
