Comments Thread For: Bill Haney: Devin Is No. 1 P4P; How Much Credit Can We Give Crawford For [Spence] Fight?

[hhh1200]

He was talking #1 in literally the same weight class as Crawford. Epic levels of insanity. It's really simple to knock off the mantle. You thought he carried Spence. Put Haney in the ring with him.

Bill is is simply marketing his brand and doing a fantastic job at it.

Rigo was also very smaller compared to Loma. Guy was a bantamweight fighting at 130lbs because it was the only fight he could get a pay day with. The Haney and Loma fight was a good fight close and competitive but style wise Loma had quick feet and that gave Devin issues because he usually looks better against guys like this past weekend like Regis who have got slow feet so he's able to glide around them and just pick them apart

Nick Walters - same f'n height as Loma, QUIT in the 7th, on camera: "do you want to continue?" "NO!"

Loma hasn't fought the same since Teo nullified his offense for 6 rounds. That's what really happened.

Like they say Bill ... 'don't get high on your own supply' .It's a good start that everyone expected but lets see what happens when it's even money and there's plenty of them out there. Bill's a good chair leader but he just may regret peaking too soon!

So apparently Deontay Wilder turned Bill on to Ayahuasca ! Bill is hallucinating!!

Bill Haney should be doing some stand-up comedy

Lol, no!

Haney Sr. has a point--Spence looked bad vs Crawford. But Prograis looked bad against Haney too, so . . . We will see what's next--hopefully Teofimo, Ryan, Tank, Shakur, etc.

Haney doesn't have a point..... Spence was promoted to be a super hero by his followers leading up to the Crawford fight. Claiming he doesn't take tune ups....he survived car accidents, he was doing all the heavy lifting.....even the week of the fight, they were chanting nonsense that Crawford "looked drained" and/or was struggling to make weight, because he was in Vegas in a jogging suit on in July....That was their energy.......then it changed when Crawford smacked their man around like a struggling sparring partner........ Spence was a top 5 p4p on every major boxing outlet's rankings.

Regis......most people can't name 3 of his opponents. He was already getting heat due to his last performance before Haney. Regis was in NO ONE'S p4p rankings. He was just a solid 140lb'er with very few big names to even be compared to in his division. Regis has also struggled to make weight twice in his career so his discipline is no where near that of Spence. The match ups/accomplishments aren't parallel by far.

I would love to see him in the ring vs Teofimo next. He's not going to face Shakur anytime soon. He is well aware of the issues he would have vs Shakur. He washes Ryan Garcia in a similar fashion he did with Regis. Ryan in my opinion is the most overrated of the up and coming big names. He has a win over nobody worth barking about and have showcased so many holes in his game that elite and average fighters will capitalize on. We can just ignore the Tank match up. That's never going to happen. Tank is never going to fight Devin at a 140lbs and Haney talks a good game but he's not coming back down to 135. If anything he's going to move up to 147, which I think is going to be where he has his best fights. Jaron Ennis was rumored as a target last week.

Secret...

There's no "list"..

it's just something for people to debate about.

Apparently, it's a secret to only you, but there is a list.... a few of them. They are called rankings. The Ring and each of the major sanctioning bodies have them.

We debate about our own personal rankings.

If Bill wants to play that game how much credit can we give Haney for beating a 34 year old Prograis, a 35 Lomachenko, or a 36 year old Linares?

Let's not forget that Gamboa went 12 rounds with him and he was no rookie either.
