However, you cannot argue the fact that Haney has the better resume' than "Boots" Ennis.

Boots will destroy Haney...no doubt in my mind!!

Tank is not ranked at 140 in any the organizations bodies. He fought there once and won a belt. He dropped the belt a week later because he wasn't comfortable at that weight. Tank is only 5'3 or 5'4. He shouldn't go to 140 where he'll be facing guys that are a minimum 5'7 with a much longer reach. Tank needs to co tinge to fight guys at 135 before they move up. He missed out on Haney and Teo. Barely got to Ryan. He needs to fight Loma before he retires and Shakur before he moves up.

Tank and his missed money fights - Tank vs Teo right after he beat Loma would have been a huge fight. Loma might cash out vs Tank. Not sure Tank wants Stevenson. If he misses those fights he can get a breather against Martin and 130 guys coming up - then in 18 months Andy Cruz will be calling him out

That would be a good fight from Haney’s point of view. It will sell on PPV and Ryan is beatable for him.

Its a good fight all around. Gets max eyes on Devin. Gets Ryan another sexy payday & a belt fight. And GBP should be making these types of fights while they can since Ryan could sh^t the bed at any time, in the ring or out of it, & its a solid bet Ryan is gone when his deal is up after all the drama even if he doesn't sh^t the bed.

Devin gots one of the best resumes in boxing right now ESP of the guys under 30. And sh^t he's only 25. He's an early contender for boxer of the decade 4yrs in ffs lol.

2020: Gamboa
2021: Linares & JoJo
2022: Kambosos & Kambosos
2023: Loma & Regis

The moment Tank chooses to fight at 140, WBA will list him Top 5, guaranteed. Because he won a belt and was never beaten for it.

You can dislike Tank, but he’s highly regarded as a fighter, no matter what NSB thinks of the guy.

I think Tank vs Loma is past its fresh by date & idk that it hits the same in 2024 for Tank's rep. But yea I think if Tank vs Shakur doesn't happen it'll be a strike against both, but esp Tank.

Thing is idk that Tank's team wants to put him in a Shakur type fight anytime soon. Tank's team is like Angel & Danny Garcia with their video where it was said they wanted fights with the least risk for the most money. And with Tank's popularity he can make money with virtually any guy with a lil name value so doesn't need a big name B side with too much risk. Or he can fight lesser risk big names like Ryan or this Sean O'Malley fight thats gotten thrown around a lil bit lately.

Funny comment but I actually see Ryan Garcia as a modern day Amir Khan. Dude has done nothing to demand these type of fights. He should move up the rankings by actually fighting contenders before calling out people. He has absolutely no credibility.

I don’t. Love him or hate him, Khan was more than willing to fight quality opposition. Take away the Tank fight and Garcia has ran/ducked/avoided every quality opponent presented to him (including Haney).

Haney vs Boots. Now that's an interesting matchup. I personally favor Haney due to the fact that he is a pure boxer who won't stand flat-footed and trade punches with Boots.

I know we’re all anonymous online but I’d bet you a mythical $1,000 that Haney gets stopped in 10.
Boots is too talented and too big for Haney.

course he has a better resume - means nothing - Canelo had a better resume than Bivol

Basically, style makes fights. One cannot tell me that Devin is going to stand flat-footed to trade and exchange punches with Jaron "Boots Ennis". That would be insanity.

In a nutshell, Devin is the more scientific and fundamentally sound of the two fighters; With the faster hands and feet. Power is pretty much the only advantage that Ennis has over Devin Haney.

So unless, Devin is willing to turn the fight into a slugfest or a firefight or if Jaron could somehow cut off the ring; Then he doesn't stand much of a chance.

A pure boxer who moves a lot and works behind the jab would always give sluggers like Boots trouble. It's for the simple fact, that they won't stand still long enough in order to land any good shots on them.

Let's just take Ennis' previous fight against Karen Chukhadzhian for example. Jaron couldn't cut off the ring and Haney is at least 10x the fighter that Chukhadzhian was.

This is a very bad style match up for Jaron "Boots" Ennis. Judging by your post; You obviously believe that Haney is going to stand in the pocket to exchange and trade punches with "Boots" in order to turn the fight into a slugfest?

Or that "Boots" is going to somehow manage to cut off the ring? You're wrong! Devin is going to keep this fight in the center of the ring while sticking and moving behind his jab.

Ennis needs a dance partner who is going to stand and trade toe to toe with him. However, that is not Haney's style. He's a twelve round pure boxer.

If Jaron had trouble cutting off the ring against Karen Chukhadzhian then what makes you think he would against Devin "The Dream" Haney who is at least ten times better?
