    The rest of the top lightweights should face Haney now

    I’m reading a lot of comments saying that Devin Haney isn’t on the same level as Teofimo Lopez, Ryan Garcia, and Gervonta Davis. If that’s true then one of those guys should sign a contract and take his title.

    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. 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.

            Exactly my point and I would say so as well.

              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.

                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

                    How do you see a Teo Lopez vs Devin Haney matchup going?
