Comments Thread For: Arum Says He Will Offer Haney Three Options: Taylor-Lopez Winner, Stevenson, and Lomachenko Rematch

No Tank? He's the scariest one of the bunch.

Yeah, Haney would lose to him and all of those choices. Keep jabbing and clenching.

Whoever fought the better fight should be judged as fighting the better fight.

Why exactly did Haney deserve to win for being bewildered and being backed up for most of the fight?

The fighter who lands the cleaner punches deserves the W, not the other way round.

You're arguing a point i didnt make.

Im not sure he deserved the win clearly. Either way, thats not what i said. I said i dont think he needs a rematch.

If he was going to do something to make the win undebatable, he shouldve done it this time. He decreases now.

The winners of those guys will get Tank so I don't mind the whole 135-40 landscape they are all good fights.

Bob Arum only owns Top Rank.

Indeed. Davis fight would be a huge fight, bigger than any of those. Not bad matches but similar what he did with Pac.

If Taylor beats Lopez, are we sure he stays at 140? Looks like he had a good camp for this fight but he's been talking about 147 for awhile now. Might only be two options.

To not make an offer for the most lucrative opponent in the division is Bob playing some silly media game so he can argue to his idiot supporters- *derp I tried to resign him derp*- when he has no intention.

Who is the most lucrative opponent? If you're talking about Tank then that's dumb as ****. Why would he offer that? How many cross promotion fights have there been in the last 3 years? You can count them less than two hands. That'd be like PBC saying sign with us and we can get you a fight for the heavyweight championship with Usyk or Fury when they don't even have those guys signed.

Decisions, decisions. Loma is the least dangerous on paper, but he also beat Haney already. Stevenson fight has more unknowns. Winner of Taylor-Lopez might be too big for him.

You literally said it wasn't enough for Loma to make Haney bewildered and complain to dad. Clearly the point you made was that Loma didn't do enough.

Hence my counterpoint: being the better fighter in a fight should be enough to deserve the win.

Negative. I also didnt say that being the better fighter isnt enough.

1. I didnt say he was the better fighter.
2. I did say he didnt do enough.

Simple. All cleared up. You feel like he beat Haney. That's fine. But this was no blowout.

My point is he shouldve done more, to make it clear. He didnt press when it seems like he couldve finished haney, or got a kd at east. He stalled his action too much.

That allowed Haney to stay in there and keep throwing, which he did. And lomas ribs looked like burger for it.

so give the win to whomever you like; its a debate. Nothing like his match vs Nakatani or even Linares or Campbell. We know who won those, and nobody argued.

Therefore, he didnt do enough to make it clear.

Pretty sure Haney would like a 4th option.

Why would he rematch Loma after admitting in the corner in the late rounds that he had no answer for Loma and after the majority of the boxing world gave Loma the W?

Why fight the younger and more talented Shakur who would be a heavy favorite?

Why move up to 140 where Haney's lack of power to keep guys like Teofimo honest would be exposed and possible risk getting knocked out cold?

Haney most likely takes a tuneup in either weightclass and tells Bob he aint cut out for these "options" just yet.

Hhaney figured out loma himself in the last round and stopped his offense. Loma was trying to replicate his success from the previous round and failed misarably. Secondly, no one knows what haney will do in the future, so quit acting like you are him and knows what's on his mind. You nuthuggers are reaching and looking real dumb.
