    What is your opinion on Haney overall?

    in terms of skills and what he has accomplished, objectively speaking?

    I think he has a suspect chin and he tends to fight with his mouth open. I expect he'll suffer a severe broken jaw at some point in his career unless he learns to bite down on that mouthguard.

        Not sure about Haney's chin, but he has a hell of a nose, we're talking world class level.

          Haney is clearly talented, not much pop, but he's quick and has a good reach.

          Kambosos is a make or break fight for him, as far as his future goes. I think he wins a close fight, but Kambosos will really test him and put him out of his comfort zone.

            I like Haney. He’s well skilled.

            My concerns are with his durability

                I think he beats Kambosos and repeats it if he doesnt move up. His make or break moment comes when he fights Loma. If he could pull off that W then he turns into a phenom in boxing. The kid has a world of ability even though he has no pop. Boxing isnt all about power though and if he can find his place in the sport and stop worrying about the highlight reels he is a tough out IMO

                  True, I think Haney's skills definitely make up for his lack of power.

                  I enjoyed his last fight against Diaz.

                    Haney is another fighter similar to guys like Andrade who likes giving it but hates taking it. They hit, then disengage, hold on for dear life, can't trade and fight on close quarters, then bend down on the waist so that the opponent can only hit the back of his head, which is illegal. In sum, it's a horrible style. You can be certain that fans would root for the opponent because of such ****** style. Just saw another guy with similar style in Conlan, who I immediately rooted against. Wood deservedly won the fight.
