Devin needs KingRy! Tank and Teofimo is not the way to go! He also needs to stay @ 135 until at least 2023! If he's done with MatchRoom, he should try to make that fight with GRJ!

What?! Haney won virtually ever round. Linares won no more than two rounds at best in that bout. It was superb performance by Haney. Now, I would like for him Teofimo Lopez to fight for the undisputed Lightweight championship of the world. It just has to happen now.

I respectfully disagree. Devin Haney boxed beautifully in there last night against Jorge Linares. I think he just may be a step or two faster than Teofimo Lopez. Right now I lean towards Haney to win that fight. I think he is the more complete and scientific fighter of the two in my judgement.

Very entertaining fight without a doubt. Linares earned the right to another shot at the highest level and Haney got the experience of facing real adversity and still get the W. That being said, once Teofimo punches Haney, he’s going to stay punched.

At least he didn't go down. So with that being said; It proves that he does have a chin and can take a punch and also has a championship heart.

Superb performance??? FOH man

With all that smack Team Haney and Haney he better fight Lopez next and not duck the fight now. Yesterday’s performance is definitely going to make his advisors hesitant to put him in with Lopez but hey he’s the WBC world champ so the training wheels are off

Linares deserves a rematch

He didn't do enough but countered and picked and chose his spots very carefully by fighting in spurts. I couldn't find more than 2 rounds to give to Linares in this fight because Devin Haney's punches were so fast. This fight was a virtual shut out; Outside of the two times he hurt Devin Haney because all he was doing was eating punches and conserving energy throughout the fight

Well how many rounds did you give Linares? The man was eating punches all night long.

Haney carried that fight all the way from the opening bell by getting his punches off first by throwing multiple jabs and combination punches. He stood and traded punches toe to toe with Linares even while backing him up several times in the process.

So there's no damn way in the world that Linares won more than two rounds in that fight; Let alone five and they were at the the end of round 10 and round 11. All the other rounds Devin Haney dominated and dazzled him with his superior handspeed and jabs. The only thing that Haney lacks now is punching power.

As far as Lopez is concerned; I believe that Haney is the more well rounded and complete fighter of the two and would easily defeat Teofimo Lopez on a points victory.
