Round-by-Round: Devin Haney vs. Jorge Linares - May 29, 2021

[JxhDel.]

40 - 35 Chantelle. Another Matchroom main card female match-up that does not make a whole lot of sense due to age, size, skill differences.

[ironbeard]

Yeah, glad I watched Russell v Santiago. Russell is pretty special.

[JxhDel.]

Bad stoppage but the match-up still didn't make sense.

[gregregegg]

On the one hand absolute trash stoppage for a world title fight he. On the other hand it was a 1 sided beating, I don’t even think the corner should of sent henandez out for that round, too outmatched so as much as the stoppage is bad, I’m kinda glad it happened.

[JxhDel.]

Yeah, glad I watched Russell v Santiago. Russell is pretty special.

Russell boys are some special siblings.

[gregregegg]

Is it Haney linares next? They wrapped and ready?

[lazboy]

Ben Davidson seems to be everywhere at the moment.

[lazboy]

Yes, fighters coming out now.

[lazboy]

Not currently a Fan of either. Haney lacks Aggression in my opinion. Linares throws fast combos without really thinking.

[lazboy]

Haney wins rd one with a very impressive/beautiful jab. I’m impressed and will reassess my “like” of him. Lovely stuff.

[ironbeard]

Rd 2 - Haney gets caught with one left and gets pissed.

10-9 Haney
20-18 Haney

But Linares starting to catchup.

[lazboy]

Dominant rd by Haney who is teeing off. Some resistant from linares who remains flat footed/lacks lateral movement. Lovely stuff.

2-0 Haney

[lazboy]

Haney looks great and he’s aggressive. Can he maintain it?

Haney 3-0

[ironbeard]

Lost my WiFi.

[JxhDel.]

This is champagne boxing

[ironbeard]

Close round 4.

10-9 Linares
39-37 Haney

[lazboy]

Linares wins rd 4. He’s catching a lot of shots on the guard. He landed the cleaner shots imo. Good rd, good skilful fight..

3-1

[JxhDel.]

40 - 36 Haney but last round was close.

[ironbeard]

Rd 5 - Haney chopping away. Haney very active. Linares not much here. Body shots Haney. Jabs Haney. Good left Linares while eating one.

10-9 Haney
49-46 Haney

[lazboy]

Haney takes rd 5. More active throughout. Getting the better of the exchanges. Linares still in it.

4-1 Haney

[ironbeard]

Rd 6 - Haney bulls in. Haney bulling Linares to the ropes. Haney throwing bombs. Linares right. Haney loading up. Taking risks. Nice left Linares. And right.

10-9 Haney
59-55 Haney

Linares still dangerous

[lazboy]

Haney walked linares down and is basically bossing him - taking some Shots in return but they don’t seem to be affecting him.

Linares late on moment but not enough for the rd.

5-1

[gregregegg]

Haney had won it all for me. Suprised he has started trying to fight inside was dominating long. Trying to be fan friendly I guess.

[margaret thatcher]

get your arses on donaire-oubaali if youre holding out hope for a fun competitive fight

[margaret thatcher]

if dev dont get a stoppage here, vs a linares who has all his losses by stoppage, his new nicknames gotta be 'the decision'
