At the end of 12 matches between Devin Haney and Vasilyi Lomachenko, many viewers said the victory was almost certainly belonging to Ukrainian boxers. But in the end, Haney was the winner after 12 rounds (115-113, 116-112, 115-113). This result made many people doubt about the scoring work of the referee.
The doubts related to the referee for the score that many experts said Haney and Lomachenko should be rematched in the near future. More importantly, the match that needs to take place outside the United States to ensure objectivity in the grading work. Lomachenko himself wants this.
However, Haney's wishes and his teammates did not coincide with the opinions from Haney. After the match, Haney's father, also the coach to take care of him, affirmed: “This match Haney won the difference so he did not need to rematch.” This judgment can make many boxers feel angry.
In fact, the transcript of the referees showed that Haney won the first 6/9 round. That made Lomachenko be forced to attack in the remaining 3 rounds to narrow the gap. That is also the reason why many viewers said the victory belonged to Lomachenko when he attacked well in the last 3 rounds.
The audience's judgment is more likely to be more about Lomachenko when ESPN (the unit holding the copyright of the match) offers a separate transcript according to the commentary of the commentator. This person said that Lomachenko won 115-113, while the referees gave the scoreboard completely opposite.
