    Haney is huge for that weight, you could see they were the same size.

    Haney agreed to the new weight. So why are people crying about it? There was no weight issue.

    Some people want anything to be recreationally angry about.

    Even so, he still fought an officially bigger opponent. That's why we have weight divisions.

    Ok.
    Tell me which of these Rounds Haney didn’t win:

    1,2,4,5,6,7,9,12.

    That’s 8 rounds.

    Then, tell me which of these Rounds were not competitive/and were definitively won by Loma:

    1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,12.

    That’s 10 rounds.

    Getting hurt doesn’t mean he lost the round

    It's said to be a dumb a$$ and don't know it..... Get out your emotions baby girl.

    Didn't think I would need to point out what was meant by "same size" but there are a lot of public school struggling mfers with WiFi connections in the world. Apparently you are one of them.

    Same size meaning there wasn't a huge deficiency in size advantage. Haney weighed in at 140, Garcia at 143.... Fight night they both came in the ring around 150lbs. Ryan wasn't some little lightweight trying to bulk up to fight against Haney who is probably a natural welterweight in size and measure. Is that dumbed down enough for you kid?

    Roids had nothing to do with his size. His lack of discipline is the reason he was overweight by 3 pounds. Stupid a$$ talking about educate yourself.....Do you even know what he tested positive for? If you were actually as educated as you act....you'd know that ostarine is used for muscle mass, strength, and stamina......meaning your fat/water weight turns to muscle. It's not for weight gain. There's a difference. I would tell you to educate yourself, but if you were interested in doing that, you would have already. You seem comfortable in your ignorance.

    Well, here's the easy part.......

    -2 or more of the judges had him winning rounds 2, 3, 8, 10, & 11
    -Compubox has Haney being out landed in rounds 3, 5, 10, 11, & 12
    -Only round in which Haney was more active was round 1. From then on Loma controlled the tempo with his combinations, though wasn't as efficient as he normally is vs smaller opponents.

    That's 7 total rounds addressed in those categories in which Loma has the strongest argument of winning the round. Never did Haney hurt or have Loma on skates, in danger of being stopped.

    Obviously these judges are paid a sexy penny to do their job. But because of those 2 factors, along with the eye of the fan, this is the reason many felt that Loma either won or at least earned a draw.

    You asking silly questions on which round wasn't "competitive"......as if that makes your argument stronger..... They both were world class fighters. The entire fight was competitive. They both fought back in attempt to win the fight....What kind of question is that......lol.

    And it's pretty hilarious to suggest that "getting hurt" doesn't mean that one lost the round..... What does it mean then.....lol..... Go look at the Haney/Linares fight. Haney lost round 10, not because Linares was out boxing him....He lost because of what happened right before the bell. It's called "STEALING THE ROUND"..... Greats like Manny Pacquiao was known for doing that at times. Turn the tempo up and get some meaningful punches in that make the judges push aside the work that happened the other 2 or so minutes in the round. I honestly can't think of a fight in which a fighter got hurt and still won the round on the cards, without them at least hurting the opponent in response before the bell.

    Haney was hardly landing, all he did was land the occasional body shot.
