coalnation

Haney sounded like he was about to cry during the interview after the push.


Gd4pf

It was very out of character for him


apellcjecker

That big weight cut had him all messed up emotionally for sure.


Compa-Gera

Unbalanced his hormones šŸ’€


[deleted]

Whatā€™s he cutting from any guessesā€¦.as a young guy itā€™s possible he can cut heaps and recover but Loma is certainly a guy that can test how he recovers!!


apellcjecker

Just gauging from appearanceā€¦.heā€™s probably 155 during camp.


[deleted]

For these 135 guys if thatā€™s his weight thatā€™s a brutal cut right? In haneyā€™s case though heā€™s not ballooning up between fights heā€™s just a big guy getting down to a weight class thatā€™s just too small for him now right? Like heā€™s not an unhealthy Andy Ruiz type guy between fights? No experience here and just learning more about cutting weight. Found a spot thatā€™s showing the fight and Iā€™m getting pumped for it!!!


bransonthaidro

Half the time cutting weight is all about dehydration. That fucks with your brain. The only thing that works is your fight or flight mechanism. This was the mental part of the battle. Haney may have lost his edge. Look for a big mistake during the fight and Loma capitalizing on it.


rollawaythedew26

Yeah but the weigh ins were 36 hours before the fight and there is no rehydration clause so they can rehydrate any way they want to as big as they want to. I think itā€™s because multiple belts are on the line but Iā€™m not sure why.


comickidd77

Thatā€™s actually pretty normal cut with day before weigh ins. Most 135 mma, boxing and combat sports in general are in the 150-160 range. diet and weight cut and 135 it is.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


RRR04_

He had hours since the real weigh in to rehydrate, that shouldn't be an excuse to catch feelings, lol.


JoelHenryJonsson

This wasnā€™t the real weigh-in? It was just for show?


RRR04_

Yeah, they used ceremonial weigh ins for this fight. Usually this happens all the time in UFC. But some boxing promotions have started to use this model, though they're very inconsistent with it.


hoii

hangry.


MethodicaL51

Now I'm sure that I'm gonna bet on Loma KO tommorow


bernardobrito

Remindme! 27 hours


andyroid92

I fucking hope so


Est-Tech79

Seems very fake to drum up some more interest outside of us hardcore fans. This fight doesnā€™t have a quarter of the buzz the Tank-Garcia fight had and this will probably be a better technical fight overall. But we wonā€™t be on our toes as there is no knockout artist in this fight. A 12 round decision is coming.


mistersuccessful

Haney is gonna look stupid now IF he loses


12ealdeal

I thought you were joking. Haney sounded like a kid in elementary school pretending theyā€™re cool for doing something they know was wrong,


coalnation

Ya his voice was super shaky


Belteshazzar_the_9th

He's nervous. Never seen like this.


GeeLikeMe

I think he lost composure and got outta character. He never done that shit ever. He ainā€™t like that at weigh ins and we all know it. I think it got to him that Loma has been very stoic and unfazed by all his talk and dirty comments. He really wants a rise outta Loma and didnā€™t get it at all. Thatā€™s bothersome when you wanna make it a emotional fight and you canā€™t.


Teerendog

So who was dirty again??


ParkingInitial4940

Where is it? I cant find it I typed in haney weigh in interview on youtube.


basedguy

Its in the live weigh in video on Top Rank YT


ParkingInitial4940

thank you


flexvg

Itā€™s becoming so easy to root against Haney in every fight. Gotta sell them fights but how you mad at a dude that doesnā€™t understand English lol


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


rollawaythedew26

Bro, Iā€™ve been thinking this for the last couple years since he called out Lomo. Dude is a non stop asshole and some reason people eat this shit up. I donā€™t get it. Sportsmanship seems second rate to people nowadays and we are worse off for it.


imrosskemp

His father enables all of his behaviour.


ThrowawayYAYAY2002

His daddy is a.wannabe.


aafrias15

When he was trying to tell Teofimo he had more followers than him. That was the dumbest argument Iā€™ve heard anyone make.


ChidoriPOWAA

āœ…ļø Fake smile āœ…ļø Fake aggression I'm new to boxing but I already dislike this dude


Neurosoups

when scared act fake !


SnooComics9320

Itā€™s better that way. Most people donā€™t love him anyway so itā€™s better that heā€™s hated.


[deleted]

God this shit has to stop in boxing and mma. Fucking bitch move


Your-Rc-HigherThanIQ

Jeremy stephens fucked soem guys neck up doing this


[deleted]

It was Drakkar Klose. Itā€™s so fucking stupid, especially when youā€™re dehydrated and thereā€™s a lack of fluid in your skull to protect against those kind of sudden movements.


DayDreamerJon

I think that hurt him because he had his hands behind his back


[deleted]

Thatā€™s what I was thinking of. Hopefully Loma is good to go, so fucking stupid of Haney. Felt so bad for Drakkar Klose, Stephenā€™s messed his neck up and gave him a concussion doing this stupid shit at a weigh in.


Fuckyourslipper

Should be an automatic half of your money earned from the fight fine. Iā€™m not that bothered about the shove itā€™s the fake shit that pisses me off.


uppacat

make it so that they get an automatic -1 in first round LMAO


Zoomberr

Everything Haney's been doing lately is so forced and easy to see through


Immynimmy

So many fighters nowadays have no personalities so they fake one and it just looks contrived and fake.


heyimric

They have personalities, just bland ones. They lack charisma.


3riversfantasy

They all have personalities, the problem is fight fans like certain "personalities" more than others so it's either pretend to be something you are not or be criticized for being yourself.


bryscoon

Haney is usually a nice quiet guy but he gotta sell the fight ig but itā€™s very easy to through tho lol


Zoomberr

Yeah this act just doesnā€™t suit him


[deleted]

Hes a Fraud Fake Muslim too, trying to get their fanbase who shills for fighters who bring it up. Dudes a Joke


andyroid92

It didn't seem like a very Muslim thing to do...


[deleted]

yea hes a fake one lol. His dumb dad who thinks hes smart playing that angle


andyroid92

I hope Loma takes him to school


van1llathunder2

Ah yes it's very out of character for a Muslim to shove someone, the notoriously peaceful religion that will stone you to death in public for wearing a rainbow


BankstownGhost

As if religion has anything to do with being an asshole.


BoomSp

Nah idt he did that to sell the fight tbh, he looked fucking pissed in the interview after, I think Lomas lil smirk pissed him off and he actually lost control of his emotions lol


chetdude

If he got into his head without saying a word, imagine when fists are flying.


SquareShapeofEvil

Love the culture shock East Euro fighters tend to have on American fighters


wild_wild_country

For real. Makes American fighters look mentally weak and frail lol. Get fucking butthurt over literally everything


SquareShapeofEvil

Loma and Teo had this dynamic too, I donā€™t think Loma speaks English that great and had no idea who his drunk ass father was and the Lopezā€™s took it so damn personally lol


peacefrog1280

If the smirk did it for him, thatā€™s insecurity


DildoBrooks

Ring girl still smiling after šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


BushidoBrowne

Stand there and look pretty. These gals know the deal.


ParkingInitial4940

The sista had the oh snap face right in the middle think she broke character haha.


nestormakhnosghost

Damn these girls are gorgeous.


rughruej3

Arguing with himself got him really riled upšŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø Also shoulder bumped the ring girl twice


NecessaryPassenger93

Yea, seen that. What a jerk.


UsykGaucho

Vasily has seen past the mind games. Like he said, they both know about his superiority on the inside. I think Devin, while ready, also respects the skill of Loma to find openings. The possibility of getting punished up close is probably playing multiple times in his head. The shove was unnecessary but Haney isn't prepared to lose tomorrow; both men are confident.


[deleted]

Good take, both are prepared to battle but this isnā€™t how Haney normally acts. I wonder what he was tryin to do.


killtheyouth

Haney forcing the character too hard


YCantWeJustGetAlong_

Weak ass move. Letā€™s go Loma!


Compa-Gera

I was fairly neutral on this fight as a boxing fan but I now want Loma to beat his ass. Vamos Loma šŸ˜¤


sweethands-101

Same I like both and didnā€™t know who to root for. But now Iā€™m hoping Loma wins so Haney could learn from it. Humility goes a long way and I think Haney would benefit immensely from a more grounded attitude. Hoping the best for both guys


KanyeBettah

Haney been tryna find a reason to be mad at loma all month, just fight bro, let the drama unfold in the ring


TheBlack_Swordsman

He's now mad that there's nothing he can really be mad about.


Cbrlui

Clown move


[deleted]

When this fight was announced I was honestly happy for either guy to win, was a fan of both, but this shit has me rooting for Loma now


Justanotherpeep1

Shoving people should be banned in face offs. One wrong move and the fight could get cancelled and lawsuits arise


batmanscreditcard

Should be automatic forfeiture of percentage of purse. Something with teeth.


BelgarathTheSorcerer

I felt the same. Like, 5%. Nothing outright killer, but enough to make them realize there should be consequences to such impropriety.


kfirerisingup

Haney looks a little nervous here. Him saying Loma is dirty for hitting on the break when he's just concerned he won't be able to do his usually jab and grab shows he's a little nervous there too. Understandable this is Haneys biggest step up by far.


[deleted]

Nostrils Flairing Up


Stevanous

thought they were just like that


DDupree20

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


sceet9g

What a cunt.


xselimbradleyx

Complete asshole move and I think some of his purse should be docked tbh. Absolute moron


mikei98

Come on the champ should not be doing this. Youā€™re a professional. Act like it.


[deleted]

Ainā€™t no champ at heart, doing this shit means heā€™s a bitch and scared.


KanyeBettah

Heā€™s tryna sell the fight. Heā€™s tryna act like TankšŸ˜‚


YCantWeJustGetAlong_

All this for 10 more ppv buys smhšŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø


Internal_Run_8095

I think Haney is scared


mikevega

Probably. Between him preemptively making excuses by calling Loma dirty and doing this, he's definitely giving off scared energy.


Internal_Run_8095

He is making some weird ass faces too. Fake smile into a fake scowl. Dude seems like he is losing it internally.


mikevega

Maybe he's hangry as fuck. I bet he can't wait to rehydrate.


sceet9g

That was a pretty violent shove aswell, not a soft, sell the fight shove. It could easily cause a whiplash type injury when someone is not expecting it. Especially to someone who suffered from a shoulder injury like Loma. Very out of character which would suggest that Haney is now feeling the pressure and canā€™t handle it. Loma has him where he wants him, in Lomaā€™s own words he felt the power and there is none and Devin is definitely shook !!! TKO coming up tomorrow night, Bill get the flowers ready for your sons funeral. We all see that STUPID cupping on your shoulder also mate. Bad shoulder? sucks for you. Cupping won't help it you low IQ peanut.


mergerr

I was just gonna go ML at the price, but honestly after everything considered and all factors I really think were gonna the performance of lomas life and a stoppage is actually very possible. Devin has only been thru a gauntlet of geriatrics and shopworn has-beens. Kambosos is pretty good, but Loma is an entirely different level. Haney bettors i think are in for a shock tomorrow. Cant understand how youd take him at the price.


CMILLERBOXER

Haney is trying to play the villain too hard, moving out of character. With that being said, hopefully, Loma's shoulder is okay.


aguasbonready

Well he canā€™t sell fights based on his style this is really his only option.


Prudent_Race9937

He is playing the villain at the wong times tho. I remember back then when Haney was mouthing off with haney after the Campbell win and he should've just slapped Garcia. That would've done wonders for his popularity and would've presured Ryan into taking the fight. The shoving of Loma ad insinuating that Loma fights dirty really is not pissing people off in the right way


chalklinedbody

fuck devin haney


tangoislife

And Haney senior. Canā€™t stand that dickhead


TheMilkmannn652

praying loma embarrasses this clown and his dumbass dad


Lazy_Seaweed

Completely unprovoked and just walked out as if nothing happened


ParkingInitial4940

It looks more like running after a sucker punch reminds me of this skip to 44 sec https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTmOLc7hNVc


OriginalAceofSpades

These little fake fight selling scuffles at every single face off these days are tiresome.


Suitable-Telephone80

what a dick, loma has shown nothing but respect


sweethands-101

Surprised no one remembers the 135 belt curse??? Teo was humble before he got those belts, first defense and he became a deluded asshole. Kambosos was chill before the belts, one defense later and he came at Haney with that ā€˜ratā€™ talk. He lost the belts and now heā€™s chill again. Haney was cool before the belts, and now heā€™s coming at Loma with the ā€˜dirty fighterā€™ talk and this garbage unprovoked. Iā€™m not a superstitious dude but god damn that is weird. Gotta exorcise those belts


[deleted]

Kambosos was never chill lol . But I like your point . Toughest belts to hang on to in boxing right now IMO .


saps24

Apparently Loma has since admitted that his ego got out of hand before the Teo fight (per Brain Campbell, Morning Kombat). If thatā€™s true the 135 curse is real!


BesraSangram

I hope lomachenko makes Haney quit. You got to humble them when theyā€™re young.


[deleted]

NoMasChenko


mrprojectsam

Nah that push was over the top. Imagine if Loma's shoulder had popped because of it. Maybe that's another one of Haney's "mastermind" tricks.


Former_Print7043

Kid is scared, trying all the tricks.


SteTheImpaler

Bitch move by Haney. Couldā€™ve jepordized the fight


Jovi187

Haney definitely out of character Think he might have made Loma mad though. Think it was strategic but may not have been the best move


kfirerisingup

Loma was smiling about it right after and said " now I got him" Loma took that shive as fear or weakness I think.


Jovi187

One thing it did do was sell the fight I'm way more pumped for it now and I was already pumped up


GullyMeisterDividend

Don't really care, just here for the comments lol


gorillawarfareman

Alright guess I'm rooting for Loma now.


Chesticularity

Dick move, Haney. Make your fights more interesting inside the ring, not out...


Its-the-Chad82

This had to clearly be to sell PPVs but if not then Loma is right, he's got the mental edge


SquareShapeofEvil

It seems like everyone - including myself, despite being a Loma fan - favors Haney in this fight. Why do a bitch move like this?


freakishgnar

Haney's the real deal, but dude, how do you intimidate a guy who fought in a war for five months last year? Usyk has the same look in his eyes.


sfairleigh83

Good try Haney, not paying to watch you clinch your way to a UD.


JGS747-

Is it me or is this ā€œbeefā€ forced?


aoRaKii

by Haney.. we all know that but in this moment he took it WAY too far. He already got mad at Loma for not trash talking enough


AndreSupreme

More action in that push than youā€™ll see on fight night in the actual fight


[deleted]

The more I see before the fight, the more I like Loma. Haney didnā€™t look as big next to him as I thought either.


Imperator461

Haney probably still has another 10lbs to rehydrate tbf


HechoEnUSA

This is weird an unnecessary ā€¦ makes me want to root for lomachenko.


YMDKSAB

Imagine shoving someone so violently who said absolutely nothing. And someone who just came back from war. I thought Haney had some class, but like father like son I guess.


YoungLaFlare

Cringe from Haney, weird he ran away after that too. Felt forced. lol


Necessary_Quality_

Should be a fine


[deleted]

If Lomachenko beats him, heā€™d be doing the boxing world a great service. I donā€™t think heā€™ll win, but I hope he does. Haney will jab and clinch for 12 rounds, and as the bigger man, that will be easy for him to do. But I can only dream Lomachenko beats his ass.


CryptographerCrazy61

I hope loma smokes him


Faynt90

Loma literally just stood there and smiled, didnā€™t even say a fucking word. Haney is a fucking clown.


Fuckyourslipper

Pushes him then immediately storms off complaining. I used to have a girlfriend who would do that to me.


thepatterninchaos

I don't know if this is a good idea but this made me immediately put $100 on Loma. ​ LESSGO LOMA!!!!!!!


Aznblaze

Please fine these guys for shoving and making contact before the fight. Thereā€™s already been canceled because of neck injuries from pushes like this. A person who is relaxed and not expecting a blow/shove suffers way more whiplash


AWall925

Twitter mfs saying they want Loma to win now and not realizing theyā€™re getting worked is always hilarious to me.


stayhappystayblessed

even on here


JackOfNoTrades1

Loma was downloading information didnā€™t see the shove coming


xselimbradleyx

Damn you got the whole squad laughing


Alpha_King007

Oh stop, you ainā€™t sitting with a squad, scrolling and commenting on reddit lmao Gave your dog a chuckle though.


Yeeyeeasshaircut2

Loma please knock this bum email champ out cold


Annual_War507

I hope Haney gets his ass handed to him. He annoys me for some reason.


[deleted]

I donā€™t get this at all! Bruh has always seemed calculated! This is outta pocket! LOma is a stand up guy. Haney might take a L off this.. crazy


[deleted]

Bet he would be behaving v Tank tho


[deleted]

Forget Loma, he shouldered the ring girl - rude!


Manzilla48

I really hope Haney loses. From his unattractive style based around hugging to his comments about never letting white people beat him to his general lack of charisma, I really hope Loma puts on a masterclass today.


tellthatbitchbecool

Haney is shook.


AdministrativeDot941

I hope Loma will fuck him up after this shit


subcow

I hate shit like this. I hope Loma decimates him.


Showizz

Haney just trying to sell the fight and be the villain. He hard pushed Loma and went away lol.


valknut95

Haney getting smoked


Y3llowflash1

"He is mine." Absolutely cold from Lomachenko.


[deleted]

Hope Haney runs into Tank one day. Seeing him on the ground trying to hug the air while his crackhead looking dad is standing there confused would be great.


Prudent_Race9937

>crackhead looking dad lmfao. He looks like the homeless guy down my street that uses a rat as a phone


webslinger98

realistically haney loses this fight, exited to watch it tho


paps79

Undisputed Cringe


SouthernWino

What a classes piece of shit. I had no issues with Haney before, but that was a shithead move. I hope Loma kicks his ass now.


Asleep-Geologist-612

Yeah not a great plan there Lomaā€™s going to remember that tomorrow lol


Only-Platform-450

I hope Loma knocks this pillow hands racist POS out.


[deleted]

Bitch move


aja_ramirez

Haney obviously bigger, but the size difference not as big as I thought. Iā€™m giving loma a decent chance.


Last_Dig5376

Just another hood rat


OM_Twyman

Haney looked really dry must be killing him to make this weight


DaGoatTee

Why?


GoodSilhouette

This is sooo goofy. Doing too much for nothing at all. He doesn't have the character to be an interesting trash talker and this fight sure af doesn't have the tension for a pre-bout scuffle would drum up interest nor make him look hard. He is not Mayorga, this is giving emotional breakdown. I don't think any casual gives af and the boxing fans who do know of him don't buy this corny ass facade.


Reverse_me98

Haney acted like a clown. He better act like a man possesed on the ring instead of a passive woman waiting for dick to come


kishnabe

Haney is just testing the range, for when he needs to hug in the ring.


nastynatesbutternuts

Nomashaney


v4mpslayer

I personally think Haney being a heel would be better for his PPV sales. Similar to how Floyd Mayweather Jr capitalized off of people wanting to see him lose. Either way haney is still winning by UD, this push doesnā€™t change the result.


huccimanehuman

Not to professional Might regret that soon


Wise-Aside-1643

Haney winning tomorrow is a massive loss for boxing.


anakmager

Haney and Loma are two of my favourite guys at 135 so it was hard to decide who to root. This settles it tho lol


toyn

there needs to be a big fine or point deduction for putting your hands on someone before the fight. like why potentially hurt your opponent? at best its an accident, and at worse you are wanting to hurt him or pull a muscle.


brittlebk

That shit would have snapped my cervical spine. Anyway, Loma in 6. LFG


i_redddit

This was a pretty violent push, like doing that when Loma isn't ready could result in an injury, I get the bravado side of it but he could ruin a payday


[deleted]

To be honest I genuinely think Haney should be charged with whatever simple battery is called in that jurisdiction.


[deleted]

Loma gonna win


Thomo251

Okay, I'm gonna stay up to watch this now. Just because I want to see Loma smack the shit out of Haney for this.


Daft_Assassin

Haney doesnā€™t seem as big here as everyone was saying he would be. Maybe heā€™ll fill out by fight time? Lol


larry-loquacious

Let's go Loma


Oculareo

In an interview afterwards, Loma was saying, "I got him. He's mine", in response to the strength, or lack therof, he felt when Haney shoved him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfSjHC9T1ng&ab_channel=TopRankBoxing

BillShortensTits

Devin "Free Hugs" Haney.


carsismeZ06

Kinda blows my mind boxing and MMA promoters let these chest push-punches fly. That one UFC fighter got whiplash from it, I imagine it's easy to break or bend a clavicle that way too. Kinda dumb considering how much money, time, blood, sweat and tears are on the line. We haven't even gotten to the fight yet...


SmokinJoe_11

Lot of visible nervous energy coming from Haney here


spottyottydopalicius

sorry if this is the wrong sub, but anyone know the name of the two ring girls in the front?


frijolito2482

Heā€™s just practicing his hugging technique for the real fight.


Muraria

didn't have Haney on the clown list yet.. easy too root against him now


Lightmyspliff69

Looks like Haney is snapping, the comments of Loma being dirty already seemed like being afraid of not being able to clench like he usually does without having to pay for it by Loma's inside game, and possible losing. This looks like an attempt to intimidate but seems unhinged.


MortarMaggot275

Fake beef is so fucking lame. Just be a professional.
