Vasyl Lomachenko v Devin Haney

[TitoFan]

Nope. That's terrible. So you cannot control the front foot or the back foot and hurt multi in between...but you win. Loma got robbed. And I don't use the term often

The crowd agrees with you.

[TitoFan]

Loma classy. Holding his tongue twice when pressed to give his impression on the decision. The crowd knows who really won the fight.

Shakur Stevenson says Loma won.

Loma threw more punches, more effective punches and won more rounds.

Watching Haney walk to the dressing room, you can tell that he doubts his win.

That was a helluva fight. Haney really stepped it up and responded to the occasion but I still think he did not do enough to have been given the nod. He hung in there with Loma and made some great adjustments but he couldn't unlock that door, and you should not be rewarded for just knocking on it. Very close and competitive for big swathes of it, but when Loma won his rounds he put a full stop on them. Haney has time on his side but Loma will feel much more than fatigued and bruised right now. Classy decision not to go on about it but he would be absolutely justified in feeling a bit short changed right now when he did everything and more that was asked of him. Modern Classic? Not sure but best fight i have seen for a while now.

[THE THIRD MAN]

Lost tribes in the Peruvian jungle knew that if this fight went the distance Loma doesn't stand a chance. The judges in Vegas do it again and we the boxing fans have to bend over and cop it once more. It's quite obvious they don't want a 35-year-old becoming undisputed champion and they made quite sure it didn't happen.

Great fight that was very close. I can’t call the decision a robbery, but I had Loma winning a close fight. Both boxed great, but Loma controlled more of the fight, was the aggressor, and landed the better shots in my opinion. Haney seemed to be exhausted by round 10, but they both fought at a very high level. Great fight.

Boxing fans were all asking the same question after reading the Devin Haney vs Vasyl Lomachenko scorecards at the end of their fight.

America's undisputed lightweight world champion retained his WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO belts with a narrow unanimous decision victory over his Ukrainian challenger on Saturday night in Las Vegas.

The judges' scorecards divided opinion at the end of the close and highly competitive contest, with some fans branding it a 'robbery'.

The fight was a magnificent, high quality affair with several close rounds.

There were a series of momentum shifts as both Haney and Lomachenko adjusted at different stages in the contest and utilised their elite boxing IQs to consistently make things competitive.

Haney controlled a fair few of the middle rounds, but in the latter stages, particularly rounds 10 and 11, Loma appeared very much on top as he had the American hurt.

When the final bell rang it was unclear who had emerged victorious - the judges scored it 116-112, 115-113, 115-113 for Haney, who was then booed in his post-fight interview.

The full official judges' scorecards have now been revealed and caused uproar.

Judge Dave Moretti, who scored it the widest 116-112, thought that Haney won round ten - arguably Loma's most dominant of the bout.

One fan wrote: "Moretti gave the 10th round to Haney? WHAT?"

A second said: "He battered Haney in the 10th, how did one judge give to Haney?"

A third fan put: "Moretti gave the 10th to Haney? Oh my Lord!"

While another wrote: "Moretti giving the 10th to Haney is wild."

A fifth fan concluded: "That Moretti card is a travesty."
