I repeat - say what you will but he fought 6 former world champions before he fought Garcia without the backing of major US promoter. Who else is there at his age (25) did the anything close?
Seriously the ‘leftovers” are EXACTLY the guys people avoid because they are high risk, low reward.
And his first fight moving up was Regis Prograis who is hardly feather fisted. You can literally take any fighter current or past and nitpick them having won against fighters past prime or lower weights etc etc but at some point the data betrays your argument.
Resumes are relative and based on sanctioning body rankings, world champion challengers or former title holders - Haneys resume hold up against the best.
Yes he doesnt have punch resistance or power it seems so i wont pretend i dont have my doubts but he took risks no one else took when he had most to lose as he has no promoter and hasnt cashed out. Credit where its due.
