DLH "won 10 world titles across six separate weight classes"


lol DLH got a gift win of an ABC champion for his 6th weight class. I dont hear him reducing his titles held or only counting winning titles when it comes to him. It has barely changed since his days. He still wants to call himself 6 division champ for that robbery over sturm when Hopkins was the lineal middleweight champ and schooled him at a catchweight.

SO i dont want to hear kitchen utensils de la hoya complain about catchweights or too many belts.

Great points. And the wba “super champions” should fight the “regular” champions and whoever wins gets the final champion recognition and they toss the remaining belt in the trash where it belongs

Yip! Just order mandatories, purse bids in 30 days etc. Install any "Interim champion" as manatory to winner of fight between Super and Regular. Whoever doesn't want the fight is stripped, move on. Not really that complicated or difficult.

Haney put himself in that position? By beating who? Unknown cab drivers Antonio Moran , Zaur abdullaev? To make things right the wbc should force Devin Haney to fight a real fighter with a pulse or strip him of the belt, not more of fighting these old washed up ex champions like gamboa and jorge linares

He fought who they told him to fight, and he won! I'm glad we got to see Loma vs. Lopez, but I can't blame Haney! Haney vs. Commey was looking good, but Arum killed that, so we're likely to get Loma vs. Commey! Again can't blame Haney! Haney vs. Jo Jo was looking good, but Oscar killed that! Again, can't blame Haney! If Jo Jo, Rolly, Tank, Loma, and Commey choose NOT to fight the WBC Champion, to go fight guys without a belt, then I can't blame Haney. The only fighter with a legit reason not to fight Haney is Teofimo Lopez!
