Haney - Lomachenko Round 12, Why???

No, he didn’t lose the fight in the 12th … according to the judges if he had won that round he would only have got a draw. The judges had him screwed from round 1

 

No, im saying according to the judges he did. Not what I, or anyone else with two eyes and a brain thinks.

 

Thats really good for you, I dont know what else I can really say to that other than congrats bro. You made it

 

Bla bla bla

It cost him the fight bollocks.

Due to well paid judges, if he won the 12th round on all the scorecards, he would have only had a draw meaning Haney retains he trinkets

 

Loma's tank was emptied from the dozens of bodyshots Haney connected.

Haney's tank was a little better because Loma could never reach his body.

Loma isn't the same fighter against bigger foes. Nonethless, he should have thrown caution to the wind and try his best in that last rd, and he didn't.

 

While I had Loma winning by a point or two (didn't score it exactly), you're right on the money! What was up with that early weigh-in? Don't they have to hammer that stuff out in negotiations?

 

Yeah skeletal is exactly how Haney looked there, true.

 

in round 12
Loma threw 55 punches to Haneys 35 punches.

If Loma "wasnt" aggressive, then what was Haney ?

 

Haney's punches landed much better.

 

Remembering when Loma went full blown sleepwalk and let Teo out hustle him in the 12th and steal that fight after blistering Lopez in the rounds leading up to the finale', I am absolutely shocked, and I mean SHOCKED that the exact same thing happened against Haney. I mean, how could you ever see this coming?

I thought Loma was a mental midget and lacked heart then and I still do. He lost the last round both times because he had the smaller ticker. The "Russian Assassin" bawling like a schoolgirl in his dressing room afterwards was quite a sight. I'm seriously ready for him to exit boxing and move into underwater welding or buy a bowling alley or anything else.

 

I do wish Loma stepped up the gas full throttle after having great success in the rounds prior. But then again the judges somehow had Loma losing the 10th round which was one of his most dominant round in the fight. I don't think it would have mattered how convincingly he closed out the last round because he would have only gotten himself a draw. He really needed to knock Haney down twice to secure a win unfortunately.

 

He claims in one interview he thought he had done enough so eased off and in another interview he tried his best. Seems confused no doubt the result of eating so many of Haney’s punches he could not get his story straight.

 

I got frustrated with Loma in round 11. He threw almost nothing in the last minute content to coast on the success of the first 2. I was hoping he'd pick the pace back up in the 12th.

 

He was tired and after the solid rds he probably felt he earned himself a break, came out switched off and just started marching without the usual attention, footwork, fients etc, which allowed Haney to probably have his best round. Lomachenko needed a kick in the butt for the final rd, his team failed him here.

When you’re an old man, you simply don’t have the same energy/drive.
