Lomachenko aka Nomachenko to Haney, but Devin Haney is calling the man out. They guy he fought he kept him on the defensive all night, but Haney still looked superb. He appeared a bit gaunt at the weigh in, and he admitted that making LW is becoming a struggle. The kid is only 20 years old and wants Noma as he calls him. I don't hear too many people calling Loma out. Haney is a strong fast 135 lb kid and wants the fight. Make the fight!
Loma should unify next. Haney is still green. Haney needs to fight someone who can test him. Otherwise a fight with Loma would be too big of a jump in class. Lack of experience has bit many guys in the ass.
Haney and Lomachenko are naturally 3 weight classes apart. If Haney can make 130, that's where they should fight.
I don't want to hear the green part. He's ranked #2 in the WBC and should be #1 now since Campbell lost. Loma was also green too when he fought Salido. Leave the amateur part out of this. This is the pros-no headgear. He was blatantly calling Loma out and name calling him Noma last night. Some guys said that Teofimo Lopez stopped talking junk about Loma and is shook of Loma or has personal problems I don't know. Well, here's a big young 135 lber who is ready to rock, inexperience and all.
Oh is that what happened with Loma when he fought Salido to green to know how to counter a dirty fighter ? The kid Haney wants him, give him Loma.
Loma didn't know how to free himself from Salido's punch and clinch style. By the time he solved Salido it was too late. He even hurt Salido with a body shot badly and Salido had to clinch. Loma leaned a lot in that fight and imo barely lost to Salido. Salido ran from the rematch, but it made Loma a better fighter.
Why would Loma fight Haney? Why not wait for Haney to get a better resume to get full credit. Loma beats Haney now, no one in their right mind will give him credit, Haney is 20 ffs, if he Loma loses it just looks awful for his legacy. He's in a no-win situation. What I want from Loma is a legacy fight. I actually was one of the few here that liked the Campbell fight, but there's nothing left at 135. Teo has absolutely no chance against Loma and has beat no one, Commey fight is more interesting just solely on size but he's way too crude and basic for Loma. I want a catchweight fight at like 137 or 138 between him and Mikey, if Mikey can make the weight.
Not much for Lomachenko to gain from fighting Haney and a lot to lose. In my eyes Lomachenko needs to become undisputed lightweight champ and then move down a division and dominate. Campbell was the hardest fight for him and Lomachenko was able to comfortably win that fight, can’t see anyone else lasting the distance with Lomachenko never mind beating him
haney calling him out when he knows loma has another fight coming is different then actually accepting the fight.. if loma said okay lets sign it and fight next I bet haney would change his mind then... could ruin a 20 year old to take fight now
You guys complain about the other guys not wanting to fight Loma. Garcia, Tank, Lopez, and other guys in and around 135. Well here you go. Haney is ranked #1 in the WBC. If Loma won't take the fight I understand it's a business move. He's the veteran champion and Haney is the young gun. But if he wants to fight someone who wants to fight him, give Haney a call. He says that he's ready!!!
He doesn't have another fight. He's waiting on the winner of a fight, and I'm not mad at him. Loma had 2 fights and got an undeserved title shot. And don't get Haney mixed up with Tank and other guys who fans say don't want Loma. He wants the fight. He belittled Loma. So don't assume.
And you're entitled to your opinion. Campbell was limited because of the speed difference and lack of arsenal. Campbell needed a stationary target and Loma gave him angles. Haney uses the jab and he has hand speed. I want to see the fight.
