    I'm not a fan of Teofimo but there's no way Regis is the guy when Teo beat up the guy who beat Prograis.

    Mind you I dont think Teo is the guy either. Taylor lost to Catteral and Teo lost to Sandor Martin.

    They were both coming from robbery decision wins.

    So the winner of their fight cannot be the guy.

    Let's just say there is no guy at 140 right now.

    Whoever unfiies titles first will be the guy.

    The division is open.

      Loma wants to stay in Ukraine. Shakur was offered 25 percent and didn't take it. I think Shakur wins so im not even hating. But 25 percent was not as bad as made out, neither are big sellers and Haney holds ALL the belts including ring. Shakur could have accepted 25% (a lot of mandatories don't even get that they get 20%) and a straight shot at all the belts and undisputed. Now he's going WBC route and will be a while before he can collect all the belts won't be any time soon and plenty of more obstacles depending on who gets the other belts

        Teofimo was once thought of as future P4P but has slipped a little. Haney vs Teo would probably end in dec. for Haney unless Teo catches him. Who knows how Teofimo will be in his next fight. Prograis is more solid but might lose decision to Haney. Tank might beat them all if he moves up 5 lbs.

          Teo beat a weight-drained Taylor, just like Kambo beat a weight-drained Teo! That being said, Teo "Beat The Man" at 140! I think Matias is THE MAN, at 140! I hope we get Haney vs. Prograis ASAP, and some unifications to follow! Gary Antuanne...MAN UP! Get into the mix fam! Stop Playing!

            Haney is yet another champion that will not cross people's minds when looking back at the greats of this era. Just like Mikey Garcia. He and Loma should face each other again

              All belts don't make you a superstar anyways. Look at Crawford for so many years undisputed at 140. Look at Devin and Charlo, Undisputed and not superstars or top 5 Pound for pound. It's about names in the boxing game.

              Devin should have face Teo, the man at 140 and the man he said was ducking him for so long. Looks like things just reverse, Devin ducking Teo after Teo's great performance.

              Which would most fans want to watch Shakur vs Tank or Shakur vs Devin for Undisputed?

              Even Devin vs Tank would have been good, if he still plans to fight at 135. Was the offer to Tank aslo 25 percen? Shakur is more known than Devin. So the 25 percent doesnt really make sense.

                  Beat me to it.

                  Haney is a joke of a fighter.

                      no shot davis beats any of them. I need to see more from davis he's not fought anybody credible since pedraza. that was over six years ago. prograis teo and haney have size and reach on davis. They also are skilled.
