    wouldn't be surprised if Fury calls out the loser for a title shot at Wembley. Loma exactly fits what Fury likes to face, an old man with no power who is small.

    Stick Lomachenko on Usyk's shoulders and stick Usyk on AJ's shoulders and you still wouldn't have a man capable of beating Tyson Fury. The big GK.

    Shows to me Haney is rattled and then immediately talking about how he will "impose his will" despite having 0 power.

    That wasn't a show of strength it was a crack and he showed it to Loma.

    He's worried Loma is going to pick him off and negate the small range advantage.

    Haney has to be the young dog and bring everything, he has to set a good tempo that Loma doesn't like but smart boxers are hard if not impossible to set a tempo on.....

    Going to be a messy close knit fight

    Haney personality doesn't match up with his behavior today at the weight in. I honestly think he can sell fights without acting like a punk. We already seen this act and this gimmick is played out.

    Haney looked very drained in the face, as a fan I'm not sure why he does this to himself. He doesn't have KO power but he's certainly an elite boxer and that will win him fights. 140 is dangerous but Haney walks at 147 to 155. The 134.9 weight in is something else.

    Tomorrow we have to see how the ref impacts the fight. Loma will be fighting to escape the clinch. I believe Lomas pivoting game will be key in getting around Haney distancing and closing up opportunity for Loma to work inside. Loma is very elusive and strong. He definitely can crack if he lands on his shots.

    It's going to be a elite skill level fight. I just hope the ref dont mess up the action. I'm a fan of both guys.

    we gotta see how the ref favors the clinch/hugs it'll be key for Loma to escape those clinches and score. Loma got the skills timing and footwork to over come that. Negating Haneys jab would do so much for Loma. Well see how it goes tom

    Pair of mental and physical midgets, boring

    Almost guaranteed that the loser of this fight will cry and make a million excuses

    I dont know why Haney pushed Loma. That was way out of character for him. Hes gotta stay focused man. Smh. His inexperience got the best of him.

    Why are people surprised? We already know what Haney's true motives are because he already told us himself during interviews when he wasn't having to wear his mask.

    The hatred his fans habour for Loma has long been downright disturbing and there's zero reason to harbour such seething animus for a fighter like Loma. It's a really nasty and vicious hatred and unlike any I've seen for a fighter who has done nothing to warrant such virulent and irrational hostility.

    He's a nice guy and doesn't really disrespect his opponents

    He's always sought out the best

    Has taken risks like few others right from the start of his career

    He's fought way more world champions and better opposition that most of his hater's current favs

    Doesn't avoid slicksters, punchers or any style

    Doesn't duck or cherrypick

    Doesn't hug his opponents to death

    Isn't as weight bully let alone a massive one. Quite the opposite, in fact

    He never stacks the deck or tries to weaken opponents at the negotiating table with rehydration clauses, home refs and judges, and catchweights

    Hasn't jacked himself with PEDs to help him bridge the gap to campaign against bigger or much bigger men in higher divisions.

    He isn't dirty fighter

    Doesn't beat up women or civilians

    I could keep going on

    In short, he's literally everything which is right and great about the sport but they've hated him with an absolute vengeance since he turned pro even though all of the bad things above applies to many of the favourites of his seething haters

    I hope I’m wrong, but Haney will win and ESB will descend into chaos in the aftermath thinking of excuses for Lomachenko.

    Classless move by Haney. Loma never said a word, never played along with the trash talking ghetto mentality of Haney. I hope the smaller man knocks him out. Haney is a punk *****.

    He needs no excuses.

    He's the underdog.

    The expectation is that he'll lose

    Age...Size.

    So why would he need excuses. ?



    But Haney is clearly scared.

    Chicken-**** move and then....runs like a jack-rabbit, right off the stage before Loma even gets composed.

    The dude is scared.

    I was fine with him up till the "dirty fighter" comment and the "shove and run like hell" stunt today.
    That diminishes him a bit, IMO.

    But the man is rattled.

    Wonder what odds would I get if I picked Loma to stop the younger man ?
