    Hope tank ices him.
    He fought scared. What a terrible fight!

      He fought a weak champ and didn't let his hands go. He fought scared and he should never be on tv again.

        Even when Haney won in a dominant fashion, he gets wobbled twice or thrice. Which is odd for someone with the polished skills that he has and his overuse of clinches. Imagine if he faced Regis Prograis or Jose Zepeda who could easily turn the tides with a well-timed hit.

        Everyone gets hit, this is boxing after all but it is abnormal that it has happened in three fights in a row.

            Haney left his promoter. Haney signed with Kambosos's promoter. Haney agreed to fight Kambosos in Australia. Haney agreed to a one way rematch clause even though it was a unification fight between two undefeated fighters. Haney agreed to do a rematch in Australia if he won the first fight.

            Kambosos put up every road block imaginable to avoid the fight and Haney called his bluff every step of the day. As OP said, yes, he dared to be great. He was that convinced he would win that he did everything in his power to get the fight.

                If haney dared to be great he should be icing fighters like kambosos in 7 or 8 rounds breaking them down

                Haney will fold against other champions

                kambosos getting that belts was a complete fluke,teo underestimated and fought with an illness that's how much he underestimated kambosos ....does anyone blame him for underestimating him though
                kambosos went life and death with lee selby


                Haney loses to Rolly Romero imo


                ROLLY would polax kambosos aswell

                  LOL Teo made every excuse he was already undisputed until Josh Taylor checked him so he didn't have to fight him. How our memories don't work?

                    He did what Ward was unwilling to do, travel outside his country.

                      I got no issues giving credit to those US fighters who are willing to go on the road to make a name, but I guess that also has to mean that non US fighters who travel to the US deserve the same credit.
