Comments Thread For: Team Matias Denies Claim Of $4,000,000 Demand To Fight Haney: [We] Have Not Received Any Calls About Negotiations

Don't get me wrong. It's still a winnable fight for Haney. However, the question is how high is the cost he has to pay? It's called a prizefighting for a reason.

Fighters are looking to maximize their marketing potential for the highest reward for the lowest risk. Why should he settle on a Matias fight when there are bigger marquee names at 140 like: Ryan Garcia, Gervonta Davis and Teofimo Lopez?

Also, Haney is no bum my friend. Anytime a fighter is willing to take risks by betting on himself while taking short money in the process and fighting on another man's soil not once but twice; Is hardly my definition of a bum.

And who exactly has Haney fought? He came into the ring against Prograis weighing 165 lbs. That’s super middleweight for those keeping score. Easy to fight a super LIGHTWEIGHT when you’re 4 weight classes superior the night of the fight. That’s cute, huh? Same way he came into the ring as a super welterweight against Loma, yet still got schooled on his way to a WELFARE win. And before all these weight class FIXED FIGHTS, who exactly has this BUM beat? He beat NOBODY to get his emailed lightweight belt. The Google champ. He then got lucky Scambosos beat a sickly Teo. No way in hell a healthy Lopez ever losses to that other BUM. So Haney beat absolutely ZERO Top 10 lightweights to earn his emailed belt and then beat a BOOTLEG “champ’ not even ranked in the Top 10 when he got lucky the night he fought Teo.

Haney never beat any Top 10 lightweight to claim his belts. Think about that. So he never beat anyone in the Top 10, he robbed Loma in a fight Loma won 8-4 on most scorecards and even 9-3 on a few, and then weight 165 lbs to beat Prograis.

Haney is further proof of the type of joke American boxing has become.

Haney's gigantic weight bully female dog ass literally hasn't ever beaten anyone remotely close to his size and not only that but half the names he's fought were either shot old men or well past prime old men who he was way way bigger than
Loma - a well past prime old 35 y/o blown up 126 pounder who was 20lbs lighter, had a near six inch shorter reach, and Haney still needed a gift from his three home judges, a 36 hour weigh in which was absolutely scandalous for a fight between the biggest weight bully in the sport/biggest 135 pounder ever vs the smallest 135 pounder in the sport, to get by him in his own backyard.

And even worse, Haney ducked the rematch even though only 17% of the 118k who voted in FightHub's insanely large poll had him winning and he would've had home advantage and three home judges again against an old well past prime fighter he had an absolutely obscene 20lb weight advantage over

Gamboa - inactive blown up 130 pounder who was 39 y/o and shot to hell who Haney was way heavier than with a six inch reach advantage. Gamboa's record at 135 is garbage. He should be like 7-6 with 2 KOs. He'd only stopped 2 of of last 11 IIRC

Linares - nearly 36, completely washed, hadn't fought in 15 months, was 3-2 in his last 5, both losses via KO, one to a badly injured much smaller blown up 126 pounder and Haney was much bigger than him

Jojo - career 126 pounder featherfist who Haney was way bigger than and had a 7'' reach advantage over, who is 2-4 at 135 but could very easily be 1-5. Diaz hurt Haney and Haney couldn't hurt him.

Kambosos - this is the first career 135 pounder world champ Haney has fought and he was still way bigger than him. Kambosos is a one-hit wonder who won his previous 3 fights via SD or MD and he cannot deal with boxers his own size to save his life, let alone ones way bigger than him.

Won a SD against a washed old inactive Mickey Bey who had only fought once in 3.5 years, against a nobody.

Now here's the interesting part. Bey was Haney's assistant trainer so not only did Haney have insider info on Kambosos but he knew that if Kambosos went life and and death against an old well past prime washed version of his assistant trainer then he would stood no chance against a much bigger young version of him which of course is whole reason why he was willing to fight Kambosos in his backyard albeit he still wouldn't have done so had the judges not been from neutral countries. What nationality were they all for his fight against Loma again? You already know.

Rougarou - to be fair to Haney at least Rougarou was a career 140 and he would be or at least many, not me of course, believed Haney would finally be facing someone his own size for the first time in his career. Wrong! Even though Rougarou was a career 140 pounder, a big 140 who really struggled to make 140, and it was Haney's 140lb debut, Haney was much bigger and weighed 9lbs more than him in the ring :facepalm:

Haney rehydrated 25lbs after the weigh in

And even worse, Haney ducked the rematch against Loma to face someone, who like Kambosos cannot deal with boxers to save his life and was a perfect stylistic fit for him, who cannot close the distance to save his life, and who arguably lost his previous fight to a rangy boxer mover dollar store version of Haney. Rougarou looked absolute terrible in that fight, utterly clueless on how to close the distance, and he got dropped too.

Haney was way way, way or much bigger than every single one of them, had a huge reach advantage over most of them and a significant one over the rest and he's only fought two punchers, one of whom was old completely washed and inactive, the other a perfect stylistic fit for him who cannot close the distance to land with his shots against him, and both of whom Haney was way bigger and heavier than

Wake me up when Haney finally fights someone his size and no that won't be happening next because Ryan weighed 148 for his 140 debut and Haney weighed 165 which is 17 pounds heavier and just 5lbs less than career 160 GGG's average fight night weight and just 2lbs and 3lbs less than what GGG weighed against Proksa and Rosado

That 17lb weight difference between them is the same as it is between LHW Bivol and Haney. Let that sink in. Haney has the weakest resume in boxing. His first 19 opponents were 114-149. Haney can't knockout guys smaller than him so what makes you think he stops guys bigger than him? Prograis is a small 140. Haney has had a choreographed career.
