I’d like to see some of those who scored it for Haney. 1 10-9 Haney (arguably a 10-10) 2 10-9 Haney 3 10-9 Loma 4 10-9 Haney 5 10-9 Loma 6 10-9 Haney ( a toss up imo) 7 10-9 Loma 8 10-9 Loma 9 10-9 Loma 10 10-9 Loma 11 10-9 Loma 12 10-9 Loma
How about mine? Round 1 Lomachenko 10-9 Round 2 Lomachenko 10-9, close Round 3 Lomachenko 10-9 Round 4 Haney 10-9 Round 5 Lomachenko 10-9 Round 6 Lomachenko 10-9 Round 7 Lomachenko 10-9 Round 8 Haney 10-9 Round 9 Lomachenko 10-9 Round 10 Lomachenko 10-9 Round 11 Lomachenko 10-9 Round 12 Haney 10-9 117-111 Lomachenko
It's not a good card based on a) my scorecard b) all the data-driven evidence I can find. The Boxrec average card was a good addition which sees it 115-113 Loma.
Oh... but his was, when it's 116-112, with caveats that it could be as wide as 118-110. While mine has a caveat that it could be 116-112. Yeah, sure... okay.
I mean, there will be outliers that will be wide, that's true. But they're clearly unusual - they are not normal and it might turn out that they're actually defendable on a round-by-round breakdown of what's reasonable (**** that) because all the rounds are so split; but clearly the 115-113, 114-114 and 113-115 scorecards have hit the sweet spot. So without being a good scorecard, it might not be horrible - your reaction to those close scorecards (just about done with boxing etc) was though.
So... you've devise an answer to what is or isn't a good scorecard, and 8 in the morning? I couldn't give a **** what the average is. Loma deserved the win, my scorecard was fine, the vast majority of the internet agree with me, and don't agree with your "nothing to see here folks!" POV.
I don't understand this. I don't think it makes sense. It's definitely not "nothing to see here" it's wild stuff, my perspective is more that the people who think the church roof has fallen in are way off. So people who think Loma won are fine by me, I had a feeling he was winning myself as the fight wound out, I'm much more interested in the fact that almost everyone has it close. That's because it was a close fight.
In your opinion, which is one most people disagree with. Also, it's the whole pattern thing. This isn't some anomaly, it happens every time anyone non-American fight on US, and usually UK soil. Only this one is more egregious, because they just robbed a guy, back from Ukraine, who everyone was cheering, of his lifelong dream of being undisputed, when most people, even including the American fans in attendance, who thought he'd pulled off. Big picture stuff here at play, focus on the macro, not the micro.
Devin Haney vs Vasyl Lomachenko Round 1: 10:9* Round 2: 10:9* Round 3: 9:10 Round 4: 10:9* Round 5: 10:9 Round 6: 9:10* Round 6: 9:10* Round 7: 9:10* Round 8: 9:10* Round 9: 9:10* Round 10: 9:10 Round 11: 9:10 Round 12: 10:9* Final Score: 113:115 Lomachenko * Close rounds Close one. I didn't see many rounds where I would argue if someone scored it the other way. All depends what You like. Lomachenko was landing more precise, with those perfectly placed punches that would snap Haney's head back, but Haney was landing heavier, while mostly partially, to the head and was doing good body-work throughout. Only puzzling or shady thing is Moretti scoring round 10 for Haney. I don't know where He was positioned, but maybe He had weird angle for that sentence where Haney got buzzed a bit at the start.
Round 1 - Lomachenko 10-9 Round 2 - Haney 10-9 Round 3 - Lomachenko 10-9 Round 4 - Haney 10-9 Round 5 - Lomachenko 10-9 Round 6 - Lomachenko 10-9 Round 7 - Lomachenko 10-9 Round 8 - Haney 10-9 Round 9 - Lomachenko 10-9 Round 10 - Lomachenko 10-9 Round 11 - Lomachenko 10-9 Round 12 - Haney 10-9 Lomachenko wins 116-112
Boxrec doesn't have it as a robbery. They have it as a very close fight. That's the data. I like that because it eliminates bias, or minimises it. Eye on the Ring don't have it as a robbery. They have it as a very close fight. In fact, there are more drawn cards on there than I've ever seen for a fight, already. And the live Round-By-Round guys who do it for a living had it as a very close fight. All cards were either 114-114, 115-113 or 113-115 with one exception (116-112 Loma, Bloody Elbow). None of them have a robbery. The next bit for me will be ringside media cards, but it's proving trick. So far I have two that are definitely ringside. 115-113 and 113-115.
