    Swell fight.

    I was a little surprised Haney handled him so easily.

    It wasn't quite Azumah Nelson going to Australia and knocking out Jeff Fenech but that was a damned impressive road win for Haney. Haney was masterful in controlling the fight with his jab and his footwork, and it's not like he was running, he was right in front of Kambosos but he was giving him Loma-like angles to deal with. I had it 117-111 Haney and even that felt generous to Kambosos.

    Inoue.

    What can you even say?

    A monster.

    Just watched Canelo v Triple G 3. At least the judges had the right winner. 115-113 was way too close. I didn’t think Triple G win a round until the ninth, then maybe one or two after that.

    Sounds like Oscar is off the wagon again.

    Damn, Keyshawn Davis dominated that fight.

    We might be in the golden age of 135-pounders.

    Another dominant outing for Shakur.

    But how a great fighter doesn't make weight for a championship bout is a scandal.

    I thought Shakur got hit a little to often. He was never in danger of losing, but he got peppered pretty good a few times.

    Yeah, that division is loaded.

    I feel bad for Conceicao. First he fights Oscar Valdez after Valdez fails a PED test. Now he fights Stevenson after Stevenson fails to make weight. I wouldn’t blame him if he refused to fight in either case, but as the B side I guess he wasn’t really in position to do that.

    Lomachenko had his hands full with Jamaine Ortiz tonight.

    Part of it might be inactivity. With all those amateur fights and his shoulder problems, Lomachenko has a lot of mileage on him.

    He says he’s willing to do whatever it takes to make the Haney fight. We’ll see.

    Lomachenko just climbed out of a foxhole.

    Let's see how he looks in 6 months.
