    I've seen them together but now, Haney looks to be 15 pounds heavier and 4inches taller.
    I assume Haney will cut down a bit in the weeks before the fight then rehydrate way past
    Loma's weight.

    Just saying, it is what it is. No excuses.

    Haney's length and reach will pose a greater threat to Loma than his girth or the punching power that usually accrues to the larger man. Fortunately for Loma, Haney is a not particularly heavy-handed.

    Typical weight bully. He should be at 147.

    Definite chance for Haney to outbox Loma. Does Loma "suddenly look old"?

    Haneys size isn't a problem because he doesn't use it to manhandle his opponents

    Lomachenko will be on him like a fly on **** and Haney will struggle to keep him off.

    Just how i see it. If Haney wins credit to him because this is a bad stylistic matchup for him.

    Even more credit to Lomachenko if he wins

    If he can continue to make 135 in accordance with the rules, why should he be forced to move up 2 weight classes?

    I think both scenarios are possible, yes.

    If I had to make a prediction, however, I think it's likely to be a highly competitive 7-5 type of affair, either way.

    Make weight on the day and at the time the contract states, that is same for both boxers, weight bully is a made up phrase.

    Excuse me, the weight at the weigh in is irrelevant. It's how much you weight in the ring that counts. Loma walks around close to his fight weight and won't rehydrate more than a couple pounds between the weigh in and the fight, Haney will enter the ring 15 pounds over his weight in weight. Boxers don't "make weight on the day", that stopped years ago. It's a full day before the fight to have make a spectacle out of it.
