"That's all that matters". Haney reacts for the first time to what happened in the fight with Lomachenko
For the first time, absolute world lightweight champion Devin Haney (30-0, 15 KOs) spoke about the scandalous result of his fight with Vasyl Lomachenko (17-3, 11 KOs). The Ukrainian and many experts were outraged that the judges favoured the current titleholder. The word "robbery" was even used online in reference to Lomachenko.
Haney said he didn't care what people said. What is important to him is what the judges put down on paper.
"In the end, people can say what they want. The judges made a unanimous decision, and that's all that matters, judges. And all the judges were unanimous when it came to that decision, so I won and the rest is irrelevant," boxingscene.com quoted Haney as saying.

The 24-year-old Haney didn't think during the fight that he had to win the 12th round to be the winner.
"It wasn't just the 12th round that was key for me, when I felt I needed to win the round to win the fight. I knew it was going to be a close fight, so I tried to win every round," Devin concluded.
