TL;DR Summary

Devin Haney won a unanimous decision over Vasiliy Lomachenko in a thrilling lightweight title bout, but the result was disputed by some fans. Lomachenko put on a gutsy and brilliant performance, fighting two divisions higher than his natural weight and landing more meaningful power punches in the second half. Haney made the fight's first big adjustment by slowing Lomachenko down to the body, but faded in the second half. The fight was a technical showcase of two pound-for-pound elites and a legitimately great fight at the same time. The best matchups in boxing are between 135 and 140 pounds.
