It is a pity that not (c) Lomachenko — WMMAA’s coverage of the Haney-Kambosos fight.
Andre Ward: “Congrats to new undisputed champion Devin Haney. The guy is on his way to get this.”
“Two great fighters Haney and Fulton won today! The most disrespected style in boxing proved to be too much of a barrier. Great fighters do what they do best – make a tough situation look easy.”
Errol Spence: “Revenge is still not needed.”
Max Kellerman: “Now Devin Haney is the undisputed lightweight champion of the world. Congratulations, champ!”
Teddy Atlas: “Haney had a controlled smart fight at a distance and when they got close, he knitted him. When Kambosos got close, he had to work, not let Haney clinch. That was the only chance.”
“In a rematch, Kambosos has to find a way to fight on the inside to have a chance. And there has to be the right referee to allow it.”
Rolando Romero: “Rolando was right, Haney is a boring boxer with no power. I never fucking lie.”
Shakur Stevenson: “Bet 17k on Devin. #Easy Money”.
“A new generation is taking over boxing.”
Haney: “Everyone who called me ‘mail champ’, fuck off!”
Oscar De La Hoya: “Can anyone please start combos after two jabs and a phantom punch.”
“All I can think of is that Tank vs. Haney is going to be the most exciting fight in boxing.”
“And all roads lead to Ryan Garcia.”
Ryan Garcia: “Given that this is a fight for the undisputed champion, there are very few strikes and no rush for both. Advantage to Kambosos.”
“Gervonta, have you watched this shit??? When we fight, don’t be like that!!!”
“Boredom!!!”
Gervonta Davis in response to Ryan Garcia: “Shut the fuck up!”
Jake Paul: “8 rounds to 0 Kambosos. Incredible master class from Devin Haney.”
“Teofimo is now watching this fight and hitting the air.”
Teofimo Lopez in response to Jake Paul: “Shit, I didn’t even watch this, but thanks for squeezing my name, young fighter!”
Teofimo Lopez in response to Shakur Stevenson: “Just remember who started it all! Conquest. Fun.”
Haney-Lomachenko: Arum wants to do an all-title fight, but there is a problem
Kishon Davis: “All the belts are in Top Rank now. Just the way they wanted.”
Clarissa Shields: “Devin, welcome to the club of absolute champions!!!!!”
Jaron Ennis: “Easy money for Haney.”
Mickey Bay: “This victory today will be the most impressive victory of any young elite fighter in boxing.”
