      Haney just arrived at 140 and you want him to move up again? Why when 135 and 140 is stacked to the bone with talent and with so many good fights that can be made.

      One step at a time bruh and plus, there's nothing at 147 right now besides Bud and Boots.

        I want to see him fight Teo and/or Tank first. he is young still he can stay a bit at 140. When he goes to 147 he aint ever coming back down. 147 is dead now anyways, there is only boots, crawford is probably moving. thurman is old and inactive, I dont want to see him fight a shot thurman to get a "name", I want to see him fight prime guys like Teo and Tank.

          The winner of last nights fight was supposed to fight Sandor Martin next so I'm positive Devin aint keeping that 140 belt cuz no one except Martin's family & the few fans he has gaf about that fight.

          So either Devin's move is to go up to 147 for Keef or Barrios or fight another 140 belt holder (which seems unlikely rn, Rolly gots mando, Teo wants $10M for tune up fights & Matias is too high risk, low reward for anyone with value at 140) or fight Ryan for no belt (which also seems unlikely to me rn).

            Dude was at 135 for too long. He might need to be at 147.

            Personnally I'd like to see some big 140 fights myself but idk that any are makeable next outside of Ryan & with Sandor being mando Devin vs Ryan would likely need to be a non belt fight to happen next.

              There is nothing at 147 anyway. Boots is a relative nobody. He may be known in our circle here but outside of that, nobody even knows who he is. Haney should stay at 140 for a year at least and make a big fight against Teo or Garcia. I think they'll both take the fight

                Haney - Boots at 147 is the fight we need.

                  Mostly agree. But can Thurman be counted on? He's pulled out of a lot of fights lately. Seems like all he does is talk.

                    Haney vs Teo is the fight we need more like.

                      Geez man, why not tell him to make history moving up and fighting Jermell?

                      There's plenty of good fights at 140. I think he needs to fight the winner of Teo v Matias, and Ryan Garcia/Tank depending on how far they've gone down the path there with the WBA belt. I think they may want Ryan v Rolly and screw over Davies/Barrosos, but they can always rob whoever wins that fight when they fight Ryan/Rolly. They want that title in Ryan's hands so they can PPV it up vs Tank. If we get Haney v winner of Teo/Matías, and the winner of that vs Tank for the WBA, with all the associated fights to get there, that's a lot of money being made.
