Paul Malignaggi believes that the Ukrainian in its entirety has surpassed the absolute world champion in one duel.
The judges stole the victory over Devin Haney from Vasily Lomachenko. This is what the former world champion in two weight categories, Paul Malignaggi, said. According to him, the Ukrainian completely and utterly outclassed his opponent in the title fight. And it’s hard to believe that this fight was won by an American.
In addition, Malignaggi did not mince words when talking about the judges of the match, who, in his opinion, were nothing but scoundles and slugs.
“I don’t need to praise this uniform theft. Haney has already received the title an absolute. It’s great – for him and for his fans, but it’s not very good for boxing. No one will say it’s great. No one thought he won this fight.
Barroso screwed up last week when he stopped the Barroso-Romero fight. This can’t help but irritate, because Lomachenko is a man of legendary status. He deserves better. Lomachenko had to leave the way he wanted.
The judges’ scores were amazing. David Moretti posted the score 116-112. If you gave Haney an advantage of more than six rounds, then you are a scoundrel. And, likely, at least one slug who, at 6-6, was looking for any reason to give Haney the rounds he was given. And the other judges are not better either,” Boxing247 quotes Malignaggi.
Earlier, legendary actor and former karate and kickboxing world champion Jean-Claude Van Dam also accused the judges of the Lomachenko-Haney fight of bias.
It can be remembered that in his last fight, Vasily Lomachenko lost to Devin Haney by unanimous decision.
