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

Those are just skin scratches on a fair skin. Haney got hurt.

That's why Loma was reacting like that to those body shots. He lost. Just because he had ONE dominant round doesn't win you a fight.

I'm not so sure about that. Lopez is just as athletic as Devin and hits much harder. Matias hits like a mule and doesn't fall for the Bill Haney mind games.

Regis hits harder than Devin, but he got dropped by a crisp right hand. Teo doesn’t have the same power at 140. Haney is the superior boxer, so Matias only hope is a KO. There are no guarantees, but I’d pick Haney to beat both.

Devin beating both is a tall order. He has no power to keep Lopez or Matias off. Matias is also a vicious body puncher. Habay dropped Regis because Regis has horrible balance and footwork.

Making 140 still must be difficult for the weight bully,
there is no way he moves up to 147

He won’t have the size advantage to go with his skill set

he will just drag a smaller fighter up. Its literally what ryan garcia just did. bitching and complaining about the 136 limit for tank, talking about how big he was, so he went to 140 only to drag a lightweight and still not make weight. he fought a career lightweight at 143.

wouldnt be surprised at all if devin does the same.

Regis admitted Haney has sneaky power. He has a little more pop at 140. Garcia wants Haney next though.

Cryin Ryan doesn't deserve a title shot yet. He should be made to earn it.

Idk why everyone keeps mentioning Matias. I think he’s too slow in general. Someone like Haney would box circles around him. And I really don’t like Haney.

With that said, this might 1 of 2 things happening. 1. Haney is having trouble making weight, or 2. Haney wants to avoid possibly facing Teofimo, Stevenson, or Tank. I know Shakur and Tank are at 135, but that’s right there.

haney wants to avoid tank...you do know who tank is right?

He'll be 177 on fight night...

So body shots made his face like that? Lol

He didn't only have one dominant round, Compubox had them winning the same number or rounds.

Haney didn't beat Loma, he had a very close competitive match with him, and he was the one being hurt in the fight.

That's not what "beating someone in a fight means".

He got the decision because that's what do boxing powers when a fight is competitive they make the business friendly fighter wins 99% of time, and in this case the younger american fighter, as usual.

Yes he did. No amount of crying is going to change that.
