Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez: I Don't Think Devin Got That Dog In Him To Beat Lomachenko

[4truth]

don't know if Haney has dog in him, he's not been pushed that hard yet.

He's got that octopus in him though and that might be enough.

Okay that sound's better, I believe we will all see a more aggressive Haney at some point in the fight.
That will be when Lomachenko, will start to look old, slow, and worn out, where Haney will start shutting him out, or stopping him by TKO.

You just misinterpreted the post the first time! Lol! Enjoy Mother's Day Hermano! Make it special! Peace & Blessings to you & yours!

Same to you, and your's my brother.

It is what it is!

He clearly showed dog in him, when even when behind big time, he made the Lopez fight close, imo. The same with Salido and his low blows, it was split decision and Loma closed strongly, hurt Salido in 12th. I know the narrative here is that Teo and Salido were shutout for them or whatever, but that is ******.

But Haney is 11 year's younger than Lomachenko, who is a couple of year's older when he fought Lopez.
As you get older those couple of year's weigh heavier, on your bones, mind, heart, and spirit.

Yeah he's a couple of years older now, but my comment was in response to a post that was about Loma fighting Haney when he should have, at the time of the Lopez fight, and he was very much the top dog then, P4P no 1 at the time. Loma is older, and Haney is still on the up, so it's Loma's own doing if he loses. But people keep writing Loma off, which is premature imo.

If he wasn't fighting scared for 6-7 rounds, he might have beaten Lopez! What I mean by "not having dog in him," is this: Do you know what a dog would do, if he kept getting hit low? HIT HIM LOW TOO!

Oh ok. Yeah he didn't know how to do that against Salido. I think now he generally handles it better.
"Not having dog in him" for me means more like that he is not able to dig deep down when things are not going your way, which, for me, is not Lomachenko's case.

I wouldn't be surprised if Loma was the aggressor in this fight with Haney! If Haney plays defense all night, or even just 6 out of 12 rounds, I think Loma can win this fight! I think Loma knows his strategy for Teofimo was flawed!

I'm not writing off Loma, against any, and all fighter's in the 135 pound division. What I'm saying is that against the top dog's at 135 Loma isn't going to be able to defeat fighter's like Haney, Tank, and Stevenson. He give them a run for their money, but his age, past injuries, and so forth will catch up to him . He won't be able to keep up with them throughout all 10, or 12 round's. Other than that he can defeat many other fighter's in the division, but that would just become monotonous for. At that point he'd start to lose against other fighter's that he'd normally beat. That Rodtang is just is the way I see it, it's simply my own opinion, and just like anybody else I can be wrong. You've responded in a respectful manner, for that I respect you, and your opinion. Now we can enjoy the up coming fight between Haney, and Lomachenko, two of the best fighter's in the 135 pound weight division.
