Comments Thread For: Devin Haney Considering Moving Up To Welterweight Division For His Next Fight

[The Conundrum]

Outside of Crawford and Spence who are the marquee names at welterweight on DAZN and ESPN? There are none. Besides, unless he is willing to sign with the PBC; Then there are no welterweight opponents to fight outside of Jaron Boots Ennis who fights under the Cameron Dunkin Promotional banner.

1) it’s not “the PBC” lol. It’s “PBC”.
2) Ennis is about to sign a co-promotional deal with Matchroom/Hearn.
3) Crawford is a free agent so he can fight on anyone’s cards he likes.

Bill talks crap , Haney has done little to earn a hall of fame, beating Prograis means very little , a tight decision which could have gone either way to much smaller Loma is his best so far. Devin has it all to prove and could well grow into a hall of famer , it sure is a good start. I like Devin's smooth ability but against static slow fighters like Progaris and GK his style is always going to look good , the telling time will be fighters that are not one dimensional .Stay away from the top welterweights like Boots and Crawford as they would ice this boy.

Show me the proof! GTFOH! I've just heard that Crawford recently signed an exclusive muti-fight deal with the "PBC" at Amazon Prime.

He should go for undisputed at 140, and then move to welterweight.

[Smash]

so he seems to be passing this next move up over to his crazy pops to 'find' him an opponent at 147, he wants a belt for legacy so bud and boots have the belts..... so

or will bud drop or lose his wbc belt and devin is in there fighting for that one?

or just stay at 140 where u got lots of options and opponents that can elevate u up the rankings even more depending on results and performances, sounds the best option by far to me

[STREET CLEANER]

There are no real big money fights at the moment at 147 unless he is going to fight Crawford and there is no real interest in that fight.

135 and 140 has a lot of fighters that he can fight.

The FANS just want these divisions to go back to how it used to be when these guys fought each other and didn't protect the zero at our expense.
I wish it was like it was with Oscar, Tito, Mosley, Winky Wright (never rooted for him though), Vargas, Gatti, and Mayorga. These dudes all lost their zero and the fans friggin loved it!!

Matias Teo and tank at 140
boots and bud at 147

other then those names I don’t wanna hear it Haney’s

You literally have people on NSB calling for Prograis to retire after his loss.

That's why you won't get those days back - because marks won't accept losses anymore.

For the "muh Matias"/"he don't want that smoke" brigade, Haney was talking about a move to 147 before Saturday. Doesn't mean it's permanent. https://www.espn.com/boxing/story/_/...-vacate-titles
