Personally i thought the scorecards were a disgrace but what do you expect.....i had John winning at least 3 maybe 4 rounds....no he wasnt hurting Canelo but he was still landing scoring shots.....like a pal of mine said if it was only about shots that hurt an opponent Mayweather would have lost 20 fights !.........out of curiosity mate did you score any/many rounds for John ?

Billy b 724 Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) John ryders gutsy performance against canelo was a highlight of an otherwise boring weekend for boxing. Best fight other than that was the denny vs McGowan fight Nobody deserved a good payday more than ryder,a no nonsense fighter who just goes to work Yes buatsi is a very strange one,I can't bear to watch him to be honest,all the talent is there but he would put a glass eye to sleep Edited May 9, 2023 by Billy b 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Billy b 724 Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 Ryder has been on the end of some disgusting decisions, particularly the smith fight And theres more Game and quality fighter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,276 Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 Couple of years to late but still promises to be a cracking fight, think size and age give Haney the advantage but Lomas technical ability is still worth a watch a could still cause an upset Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,276 Posted May 20, 2023 Report Share Posted May 20, 2023 Come on fight fans it’s here, I think Haney will be tested like never before and possibly exposed, looked a little lost when he fought linares to me but he has youth and size on his side shame I,m off out tonight but looking forward to watching in the morning Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NEWKID 26,211 Posted May 21, 2023 Report Share Posted May 21, 2023 Thought the last 3 rounds were enough to clinch it for Loma, every other round really tight to score... I could only see a Lona win when it went to points, he'll be gutted with that decision... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
