    So... a shameless ESPN shill being a shameless ESPN shill is the most convincing argument you can find? Yeah... okay.:lol: You couldn't be any more transparent if you ****ing tried. Here's the reality, the brass at ESPN probably threatened Timmeh to get his ass in line, and knock off the draw talk, even that wasn't biased enough for them, if not there'd be repercussions.

    Tim full of **** in general regardless of his thoughts on this ight,

    He's what they really call hater, it kind of speaks to what Teofimo was referring to lowlife shill media in particular & it's okay to call it how you see it but he specifically goes out of his way to insult the fighters & make fun of them in the process,

    The guy seems so bitter full of envy & insecure everytime you catch him yapping with his little school bag.

    Rewatch and focus on Haneys bodywork through most of the fight and you'll see it differently.

    ESPN lackey. They literally posted an opinion of some boxing persona saying Haney won, noting how he "knows his boxing" or something. Not agenda driven at all. People had the decency to point at that Paulie is hates Devin. Do the same.

    Eddie Reynoso, Robert Garcia, Oscar de la Hoya, Bob Arum, Jorge Linares, Shakur Stevenson, Ryan Garcia, Keyshawn Davis, Terrence Crawford.

    There are people calling it a close fight, and I agree in the sense that it was not unriggable. It's delusional to think Lomachenko would get a fair shake though, and at that age, at this size disadvanatage, he will get grazed and take body shots on elbows or ride them. To not do so would mean he is running around outside of range. Thing is, he did what he was supposed to do: he landed crystal clean shots that snapped the head of Haney, even finding him on the ropes. Clean and effective punches is worded that way, because there is no doubt that the blow landed well.

    He only says that cause he is an espn puppet. Same way you only say it cause Haney is black.
    If Haney put in loma's performance you would have said he won.
    On the other hand having such a black and white view of the world makes it easy to score any close fights I guess.
    You probably also think Bradley beat Pac.

    Ah yes and completely ignore the fact Haney's head shots continuously missed, often swinging at nothing. For a fighter with that much of a longer reach he should have been landing those with ease!

    He won the first fight because he was able to take advantage of Pacquiao’s limitations like several have. There is a reason why Pacquiao has 8 losses. Formidable fighter Pacquiao but far from perfect.

    Tim and Zab Judah are the only well known boxers that had Haney winning.

    I'm gonna eventually watch it again, I didn't score it on here as I was with friends but I definitely had it 7-5 for Loma, main reason being Haney folded late.

    I don't think re-watching will change that. It was very competitive and Haney really did some decent body work but him weathering down the stretch cost him IMO

    I changed my card after rewatching today. I had it 6-5-1 for Haney. Now I have it a solid 7-5 for Lomachenko and it ain't changing. I think I was impressed with Haney's body-work & few sneaky rights that I overlooked Loma's more consistent work of attack. He outworked, outfought & outmanouvered Haney for most of the bout. Most of Haney's shots were either blocked or partially landing - and the ones that mainly landed were in clinches (some of them illegal).

    Initial Scorecard:
    Rounds Won
    Haney: 1,2,3,4,5 6
    Loma: 7,8,9,10,11
    Even: 12
    Winner: Haney 115-114

    Now:
    Rounds Won
    Haney: 4,5,6,8,12
    Loma: 1,2,3,7,9,10,11
    Winner: Loma 115-113

    Bingo!! as I heard once from a manager," If you wish to remain employed here it is imperative that you support and promote management decisions, regardless of your own views". It was such an elegant threat.
