    Haney isn't boring at all.

    Haney is an excellent technical fighter, its interesting watching him work, figure out the angles, adapt.

    Hy the late stages of the fight he was beginning to tee off on Kambosos a little bit, it was difficult though because for 12 rounds Kambosos timidly lurked at the edge of range doing nothing.

    Haney isn't a come forward boxer puncher so you get what you got which was a technical schooling.

    I do think he could be taudught to sit on his punches a little more at certain points in a fight but the kid is 23 years old, let's not act like he's the finished article, I am sure that will come as he gets closer towards his prime, he wobbled Kambosos a couple of times but lacked that bit of instinct to put them together at those stages.

    He is more boring than Clinchko, Fluidweather and even Bumdrade.

    Only Khabib's a$$ sniffing grappling moments in Octagon on par with him.

      Haney will be one of those fighters? The more he is pushed, the more he will show of his game.

      How he fought Kambosos Junior is his primary game plan. Somebody needs to push him past this game plan, so he can show more 'If there is more'.

      Floyd Mayweather Junior, was pushed past his limits. He had to show various styles to beat different fighters.

        I agree with you. He’s great at what he does. He can win that way. He may not become a highlight reel superstar but winning comes first in boxing. He didn’t get caught and wobbled once this time around which is good for him. Like you said he’s still young, plus he has all the belts already. People don’t get pushed as fast as they used to, so he should be proud of his path so far. I just hope there’s fighters out there that can bring the most out of him.

                Haney has in some ways avoided adversity via his skills inside the ring. But there will be a time, when he has to come through it.

                He will probably be hit more by Davis & Lomachenko, in those fights he will show more of his game.

                    Although Haney doesn't have the flashiest style, his skills are still great to watch as a purist
