Theo does not understand why Devin was given the victory in the fight with Lomachenko
Former World Lightweight Champion Teofimo Lopez once again criticized the result of the battle between Devin Haney And Vasily Lomachenko.
“Haney is a fake champion. He poses something of himself, and when problems begin, he whines in the corner to his father: “What should I do? Loma miscalculated me!” What was it anyway? brat! I do not understand this”.
“Why are you dragging the kid by the ears? Why are you helping this puppy? The youngest champion in the era of four belts is me. Why did you “repeat” my achievement? Why attributed to him? Teofimo beat Lomachenko. And Devin beat Lomachenko. But there is a nuance. After all, in fact, he lost to Lomachenko.
Lomachenko lost to Haney for the title of undisputed world lightweight champion. According to the results of 12 rounds, the judges gave the victory to the American boxer: 116:112, 115:113, 115:113.
The sports community spoke out about the unfair decision of the judiciary. At the same time, WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman supported the decision of the judges, indicating that the fight was very close on points.
Lomachenko fought his 20th fight in the professional ring and suffered his third defeat in his career. Undefeated Haney won his 30th bout and defended the title of undisputed world lightweight champion.
Egis Klimas, the manager of the Ukrainian boxer, sent letters to the WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO asking him to appoint the Ukrainian as a mandatory contender for the lightweight belts owned by Haney.
