    Never been a fan of Haney but the man has consistently handled business and tried to get all the right fights. Keeps moving like this and he force me to be a fan.

      All these guys are going to be at 140 in 2 years max. Just go up there and wait for them. He might have to go through a gauntlet at 140 though.

          If Haney beats Lomachenko, I expect him to fight top dogs at 140.

          That is bigger challenge than gaining Stevenson and Tank at 135.

            Oh! I guess he already beat Lomachenko then.

            He does need to move up though. You can see his body isn't taking to 135 well anymore.

            Insane how some guys like that Japanese guy or the other guys who are like 6' plus stay at 135.

              Not Tank.

              He'll probably maneuver to a super fight for undisputed or unified status at 140 but he's not making that division his home unlike the others.

              Teofimo, Haney, Shakur, Ryan will all be 140 though. Shakur probably needs to accelerate his career. He's the only one new to 135, yet a year older than the aforementioned.

                140 seems to be full of primadonnas who only fight if the money is right and the risk is low. Stacked with guys who won't fight each other. Taylor dropping belts to not fight mandatories and using Catterall as an excuse, then not fighting him either, all kinds of guys ducking title shots because of money, and the two moving up from 135 have been exposed as hypejobs.

                  Another Floyd in training.

                  He'll always ghost the division when some threats are hovering

                    Except for Prograis and Matias, they both want smoke with everybody.

                      Problem is that he will be expected to face the best at 140 while he waits, and with his lack of power and not really knowing how good his chin is, he will be food for someone like Prograis or Matias. Taylor, if he isn't sauced or indulging in the booger sugar, would also probably give him a loss as well.
