Haney vs. Lomachenko Weigh-In Prediction

The weigh-in is a topic of importance in regards to the upcoming undisputed title fight between undisputed champion Devin Haney and Vasiliy Lomachenko. The size of Devin Haney has been heavily considered when analyzing this respective match-up. 

ShowBizz’ Weigh-In Prediction: Haney is going to make weight but is going to look drained. However, if he makes weight, that’s a victory for him.

With respect to the fight itself, Lomachenko has mentioned Haney’s performance against Jojo Diaz. The southpaw style might be the key to avoiding Haney’s exceptional jab. On the other hand, Haney has to use his size in the same way Sandy Saddler used his size against Willie Pep.

Lomachenko’s age has also been a subject of discussion. However, what if Lomachenko hasn’t aged in terms of his boxing ability? Perhaps his performance against Jermaine Ortiz was not necessarily due to his age, but more due to the fact that Ortiz used to be his sparring partner. A great fighter of the past, Roy Jones Jr., has mentioned the difficulty involved with facing a sparring partner in an actual pro fight. That is because sparring partners can become aware of tendencies in your fighting style after repeated sparring sessions.
