The rest of the top lightweights should face Haney now

Lmfao that fight was 4 years ago. Linares isn't the same fighter. He got stopped in the first like one fight ago. One somewhere decent win and you hankey fans are hyping him up. Who elsr had hankey fought? Ryan has velez, romero, fonseca and Campbell. Can you name anyone elsr on hankeys resume? Linares also got knocked out in 1 and 2 rounds a decade ago.

It was three fights ago at 140, and if Haney didn’t beat the same Jorge Linares then you could argue that Ryan Garcia didn’t beat the same Luke Campbell. For the record, I give credit to both guys but it’s easy to twist the narrative to criticize a fighter you don’t like. I’m a boxing fan period so I don’t call fighters names. Yes, Ryan Garcia has more names because he’s a bigger draw with more power to choose his opponents. Velez, Romero Duno and Francisco Fonseca are decent fighters but it sounds like you would call them bums if Devin Haney beat them instead. If Haney is so overhyped then Ryan Garcia should take the title shot he earned by beating Campbell

Nice breakdown. I agree that Teo is the one with the ability to end the fight with one shot. Haney would be better off looking to outscore Lopez but 12 rounds is a long time to go without making a mistake like he did against Linares. Either way, I want to see them fight this year or next at the latest. Thanks. Yeah I doubt Haney would be that bold vs Teo. I'm not a hater of Haney though. I just think sometimes he looks really really impressive. And sometimes he looks average and easy to hit, with no real pop. But yeah please someone make all these guys fight each other!!! Lol boxing needs it

I think both guys have holes in their games still, but that is true for most fighters, even seasoned pros. Haney, for whatever reason, seems like a different fighter in fights after the first few rounds. He starts to fatigue or something, and the quick fluid movement he shows early on kind of fades. Teo has great pop but I thought he was close to going away late in the fight vs Loma. He still seems a little mentally shaky to me but credit to him for that Loma win. I'd favor Teo just because right now I think it's a tough matchup for Devin. Teo has great pop, and I don't know if Devin has enough for 12 rounds to keep from getting hit with the big shot. You never know though - sometimes the guy like Haney who gets accused by some of stinking the joint out, ends up being able to neutralize guys like that in fights. I would bet on the explosiveness of Lopez to win out right now though if they fought. Nice breakdown. I agree that Teo is the one with the ability to end the fight with one shot.

I don't think people are ducking him as fans are claiming as much as nobody is going to go over to DAZN. People seem to acknowledge that guys like Spence and Charlo shouldn't have to go over to DAZN, but then say everyone is ducking Haney by not going over. Well Ryan Garcia fights on DAZN too so that fight shouldn’t be a problem. I know that Eddie Hearn supposedly offered to allow Demetrius Andrade to “cross the street” for Charlo so perhaps he could do the same for Haney to face Teo or Tank Davis.

Yeah it's a shame that we get all these interim fights and the best not fighting the best How do you see a Teo Lopez vs Devin Haney matchup going?

I agree and Haney should be willing to bend a little to get one of these guys in the ring. If he wants 50-50 and Teo says 70-30 then he should go for 60-40 or 65-35 without missing out entirely. Yeah it's a shame that we get all these interim fights and the best not fighting the best

It takes two to tango, so I agree and Haney should be willing to bend a little to get one of these guys in the ring. If he wants 50-50 and Teo says 70-30 then he should go for 60-40 or 65-35 without missing out entirely.

Linares beat Campbell, so yeah. I'd say it's better. Exactly my point and I would say so as well.

It takes two to tango, so

I had heard that too in regards to Teo and I’m hoping he follows through. I know critics like to use the “who has he fought?” excuse but at this point Haney’s best win (Jorge Linares) is as good if not better than Ryan’s (Luke Campbell). Linares beat Campbell, so yeah. I'd say it's better.

Ryan still won’t go near him. Teo was saying Devin was next before the Linares fight. I had heard that too in regards to Teo and I’m hoping he follows through.
