Bro Linares is the equivalent a old lion who was never the best and got outclassed tonight. Loma is washed and Ryan Garcia is just ok. I didn't mention either one of those guys you did. I dont consider them upper class fighters Loma is a legend but he a old lion too now

Loma would have major issues with that jab, speed, and size. Loma isn't Linares, you're right, but it's in more ways than one. He's not as long and doesn't hit as hard. This is a bad stylistic match-up for Loma.
Floyd figured that out early!

That didn’t look good for Haney
and your point is, Haney beat Linares easy than any was ever beat him
Loma wasn't an old lion when be beat Linares, and Linares dropped him
Teofimo couldn't drop Loma and Linares did, and when not gonna talk about how Loma rocked Teofimo in the late rounds the same way devin got rocked
Devin stood toe to toe with Linares and took some shots he shouldn't have took, he still dominated him most of the fight and landed twice as many punches as him even though they threw the same amount
This the shyt Kwame Brown talking about
a nikka gotta SUPERHUMAN just to get an inch of credit and inch of respect
Devin Haney got stand in the pocket and exhange, not get hit, and KO his opponent just to be considered a legit fighter lmao
fukk outta here with that sucka shyt

I think the Floyd comparisons are gonna haunt Devin his entire career. Every little hiccup will be criticized
If a Mexican fought like Devin fought tonight, he'd be called a Warrior

This shyt had me dying bro.
Hand to god I was like if Haney doesn’t get the KO
...he tried he wasn’t sweet sciencing ... Linares ate a lot of shots etc...But then Linares changed all that with one punch

The black man is always targeted.
Hopefully Haney learned a valuable lesson tonight - FIGHT YOUR FIGHT
He’s skilled as a mfer, that’s a given. But his chin got checked and he realized how powerful he really is.
He’s got dog in him, but he’s not a stand and bang power puncher. He’s a technician who’s skilled at all ranges.

Most fukking DEFINITELY they woulda called this a fight for the ages. Fans woulda been cheering out of the stadiumI think the Floyd comparisons are gonna haunt Devin his entire career. Every little hiccup will be criticized

Ref woulda let em fight like warriors too. I peeped how he always targeted Haney, pushing him back and spoke in English. He only spoke in Spanish twice, meaning all the times he broke em up he was only speaking to Linares twice out of all the times he broke em up
I know Ryan Garcia isn't out here talking shyt
punk ass didnt even pursue his title shot...little nikka needs to shut the fukk up...with his depression and shyt
Breh I can't stand this shyt. Out here pulling out of fights because of "mental health" and then you want to talk shyt like you weren't put on your ass in your last fight. This the type of behavior the media wants to enable. Can't wait for Mario Lopez to shyt on him again

Those left hooks Devin was eating in the earlier rounds woulda almost certainly put Ryan down
