Comments Thread For: Haney, Concerned With Ramadan, At Odds With Top Rank Over Lomachenko Fight Date

[SchoolTheseCats]

It's Haney being the spin doctor here, he's fought 4x during Ramadan unless he's suddenly converted to Islam, he's making excuses to not fight.

Guess you didn’t read the article that clearly states he just converted to Islam which is why he wants fight in March instead of May because of Ramadan which he will be fasting until sun down

If Haney has such devout faith in Allah, what has he got to worry about?

If he wins it's because it was the will of Allah, not because he had a good training camp.

They want all the belts in Loma's hands so he can fight Shakur in the next fight and "Pass the torch" to their new superstar if possible. They'll make it for March, I highly doubt Loma will put up a stink, he wants the fight.

Fought Linares 29th May 2021; Ramadan ended 12th May.

Fought Moran 29th May 2019; Ramadan ended 6th June.

Fought Aispuro 24th June 2017; Ramadan ended 24th June.

Fought Burns 25th June 2016; Ramadan ended 5th July.

None of that matters when in article it says he just converted to Islam

Where does it say he "recently" converted to Islam? ohwai... it doesn't.

I'm well aware what Ramadan is thank you, don't need some random to explain it to me... I lived in one of the most densely ****** areas in the North of England right on top of a mosque and the Quran was taught in a Church of England school laughably.

March seems reasonable to me, 6 months after they both fought in October.

Haney converted to Islam April 2020, or 21, as for the whole usyks ramadan comments is nothing to do with usyk fasting, its soley due to the fact arum wants to stage fury vs usyk in saudi... which is a ****** state therefore most if not ALL sporting events are on holiday in saudi arabia, arum doesnt want that to be a issue so wants to make fury fight before ramadan and haney fight AFTER ramadan

Haney converted to Islam in April 2021. In the United States Ramadan was observed in 2021 from Monday April 12th to Tuesday May 11th, Ramadan was observed in 2022 from Friday April 1st to Sunday May 1st. He has not fought during Ramadan since he converted to Islam.

Its BS, if he wants to fast do it to suit his life, religious dates that have no significance are for fanatical believers, I dont believe in any form of religion, in my mind we are each our own God and dont need a crutch to face lifes hardships we only need to believe in ourselves.

He didn’t do fasting for the Linares fight? The fight happened on 29th May 2021 and Ramadan in 2021 finished on 12th of May. Same with his fight against Antonio Moran but now all of a sudden he is a devoted ****** and top rank is trying to play him dirty. I say bs!

lol Fairy Tale religions getting in the way of real life. Yikes.

Boxers aren’t very intelligent outside the ring.
