    Linares is a lot naturally bigger than Loma

    Haney is a lot naturally bigger than Linares

    Haney comes in at 155 bare minimum, Loma was 138 against Linares

    That's over three divisions more

    Loma suffered a flash KD against a way bigger and heavier prime active Linares who was ranked #11 P4P by The Ring and hadn't lost in six years after getting complacent and walking in squared up. He bounced right up and wasn't hurt and he went on to KO Linares despite suffering a very serious injury to his shoulder in round 2

    Haney was badly hurt by much lighter washed old inactive Linares who was 3-2 in his last fights, both losses via KO, one to a blown up injured 126 pounder. Haney did the stanky leg and was badly hurt and luckily the bell came to his rescue before Linares could land another shot or more shots on him when he was in that state otherwise it could've been curtains for him. Also, Haney ran, held and spoiled for much of the remaining two rounds in order to avert getting clipped again, at times holding on for dear life.

    Yep. Can you even imagine Gervonta Davis or Ryan Garcia agreeing to not only travel to the other end of the world, the opponents backyard but to do so with the lesser share of the purse and with a rematch clause should they win also with the lesser share of the purse again on top of that? Sounded funny as I was typing it.

    Can't recall if already posted, here are the betting lines:

    Haney -190
    Kambosos +144

    Scrumptious. :razz:

    Judges announced:

    Polish, Canadian and Hungarian.

    I looked into their records and all three look pretty solid.

    Not afraid giving an away fighter the nod on the road. And also not afraid of scoring AGAINST the clear A side.

    So we should get a fair shake.

    Zoltán Enyedi, Paweł Kardyni & Benoit Roussel. No complaints about the Hungarian; the Pole has turned in some absolute head-scratcher cards and the Canuck is somewhere in the middle with a so-so rep (kind of a homer but n/a here, otherwise fine).

    You've got some bad examples for Kardyni and Roussel? Scrolled through their records and they looked alright.

    Kardyni, the name struck a bell so I did a keyword search on his name of my own posts and, while they're long enough ago to be foggy now, there are posts where I mention him putting out some dodgy cards. Russel is more secondhand, going by other peope saying he was slightly homerish, but not awful.

    Kardyni:
    1. had Masternak over Balski by three more points than myself, a little too wide. Balski definitely captured the first two rounds.
    2. strangely robbed countryman Przemysław Jerzy Gorgoń vs. Belarusian club fighter Ivan Murashkin, although tbf his card was the closest of all three judges.
    3. had Aram Amirkhanyan 115-112 over Khuseyn Baysangurov; mine read 114-113 for Baysangurov. So again, not egregious, just...off.
    4. and finally this is the post of mine from all the way back in 2014, worrying about his involvement with Enrico Kölling vs. Giuseppe Brischetto as the Huck vs. Larghetti co-feature...moot point, though, as Kölling stopped Brischetto in 7:
      Been way too long to remember what past trangressions I was referring to, but that does establish a lengthy history of not so consistently great judging.
    As for Roussel, skimming through, it seems like the best examples I can find are that whenever there's a split draw he is the lone dissenter having it for the Canadian guy - although his score is usually just on the other side of the fence and never ridiculously wide or anything.

    Zoltán Enyedi has always been straight down the middle and competent AFAIK, so he's our control group here. The other two are most likely fine, but my suspicions linger about Kardyni being a wildcard if there's a ...well, a wild card. :sisi1

    To his credit, Roussel did save Gabriel Maestre from getting robbed against Taras Shelestyuk a couple of months ago. He was the only judge that scored it correctly (for Maestre), while his countryman Girard had it absurdly wide for Shelestyuk and their colleague had it a draw, which served as the result.
