    Is it a requirement be weighed by the commission on fight night? It is said that big stars in the past don't allow it, so they don't have to make excuses for it.

    I mean why not keep it secret next time?
    they just need something to complain about

      Didnt he miss weight? Im not complaining about him neither. I think hes a talented boxer. I think a healthy minded Teo would whip him. I also think he has a good chance of outboxing Crawford. Ennis would be interesting. Shakur, would be like watching two book ends separated by 8 books fight…..snoozefest.

        I think you got two fighters mixed up. Bill Haney was referring to Subriel Matias pal; To whom he alleges had offered more than $4Mil to fight Devin Haney but was turned down.

          no he called prograis the bogeyman of 140

          “No other fighter has done what Devin has done,” Bill Haney said during the post-fight press conference. “Crossing the pond to become undisputed [against Kambosos in Australia]. Coming up to another division and fighting the hard-hitting, arguably no one, you know, the boogeyman no one wanted to fight. He’s the number one fighter right now, pound-for-pound"

          Bill Haney is obviously biased, but he believes his son cemented himself Saturday night as the best boxer, pound-for-pound, in the sport. Devin Haney was so dom

                    That's great. He shouldn't have trouble fighting people his own size then.

                      Main takeaway from the fight was haney felt more comfortable planting his feet to throw leather with more power. Probably more confident in his chin with the higher weight and less drain.

                      it made him fight with more risk than usual hopefully he increases this risk in the future to move away from the boring safety first style we are accustomed to seeing.
