Haney vs Lomachenko LIVE! Boxing result, fight stream, latest updates and reaction to undisputed thriller

Haney vs Lomachenko LIVE!

Devin Haney remains the undisputed king of boxing’s stacked lightweight division after a thrilling contest against Vasyl Lomachenko in Las Vegas. ‘The Dream’ edged an absorbing tactical battle at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and picked up a controversial unanimous decision win to retain his belts for the first time on US soil and remain unbeaten, moving to 30-0 as a professional in the process.

Many thought underdog Lomachenko had done enough to add undisputed status to his incredible list of career achievements, with the final result greeted by heavy boos from a strongly pro-Loma crowd. However, he was denied on what could well be his final chance at the very highest level, falling to a third defeat despite a superb effort that confounded pre-fight expectations. Haney, meanwhile, must now decide whether to move up in weight or else stay at 135lbs and pursue blockbuster bouts with the likes of Shakur Stevenson and Gervonta Davis.

On Saturday’s undercard, Oscar Valdez returned to winning ways in an entertaining rematch against Adam Lopez. Junto Nakatani claimed the vacant WBO super-flyweight title with a devastating late knockout of Andrew Moloney, Raymond Muratalla demolished Jeremia Nakathila early in a statement win and Nico Ali Walsh was held to a surprising draw by Danny Rosenberger.
