No announcement yet.
There is absolutely nothing special about Devin Haney.

Sure you are. You wouldn't talk about him as much as you do if you didn't feel that way. Nobody has to like any fighter but if you do no point in not just saying it.
You’ve got Eddie Hearn and even Haney himself claiming he’s the heir to the Mayweather throne, I’m just pointing out he’s shown absolutely nothing to suggest these claims are legitimate.

There is a complicated calculus at work that ultimately determines a Fighters ascension. But power is the least important variable... Haney will get a lot stronger. He has poise, great jab, he is diligent.
and power is one of the most important elements of success.

He has talent with his speed and some good qualities, good jab, good defense, seems to have good skills
Like many fighters who try and fight with the same style as Mayweather is there is only one Mayweather, it’s an impossible task to emulate that style.
To me seeing him fights he gives off a poor mans Michael Nunn vibe.

Where have I said he’s a bad fighter? I just don’t think there’s anything special about him- cause there isn’t. I don’t particularly like Haney but that’s irrelevant to his ability as a fighter, I can’t stand Ryan Garcia but I’ll admit that kid has special talent, Haney doesn’t and his performances prove that.

I think he's actually one the best pure boxers out there and I'd say he is at 135. Not saying he'd beat everybody there but I really like his skillet. I'm just pointing out your personal dislike for him, which is fine, and should have been my point instead. Like me with my stuff about Golovkin. Dude's career sucks and at this point I don't he cares that it does. Got into it with aboutfkntime and chollo vista about him quite a few times. Never should have.
I’ll agree to disagree with you on his ability but I genuinely just don’t see anything special in Haney and that’s irrespective of whether I like him or not. There’s loads of fighters I dislike but I’ll always give props when due.
