Is Bill Haney mentally ill? Why does he feel the need to lash out at everyone?

A few boxing dads do. Kenny Porter, Teofimo's dad, Angel Garcia, Robert Garcia's dad, they all seem to live vicariously through their sons.

Theres obviously some of that going on, but I also think there is a tactic of the sh^t talking dad who gets the opp flustered & off his game while the son is mild mannered & focused. A lot of these boxing dads come with that energy too. The dad does the sh^t talking & the son focuses on boxing. And it works far more often than it doesn't.

Add to that these father-trainers are learning on the job too and they're not used to the media spotlight either, they've got a load of pressure on them as well.

because he peaked 20 years ago and is getting his validation through the achievements of his son. And when his son failed, he is struggling to come to terms with it.

That, or he's just an insufferable jackass

Its fascinating how uncomplicated some of you guys view the world around you.

From what I see Bill made a lot of bad decisions in his own life & once he had kids he did a lot of sh^t to help them not make as many bad decisions + help them achieve their goals. He helped Devin in boxing. Hes helping his younger son in tennis. I think his daughter is still pretty young but I'm sure he'll help her with her goals too once shes older. This is basic sh^t a father does or should do for their children.

Lol no doubt. They take L's too sometimes. Ruben Guerrero comes to mind with taking L's with his talking.

You do realize that Devin is a 25 year old MAN?? At this point of his life, should his daddy still be speaking for him?

His house of cards collapsed. His son was weight-bullying at 135, got a gift in a Loma fight after getting schooled, and finally met his match in a B-level fighter who is his size. Haney's 165 lbs on fight night didn't give him the size advantage he has in previous fights. He agreed to go on with the fight despite Ryan being 3 lbs over. They are handling this loss as bad as Wilder did his two losses to Fury. Delicate bunch.

Thank God someone else sees sense. Haney is just better version of Broner. He outweighed Loma by up to 25 pounds in there fight, and still got the **** beaten out of him in a few of those rounds. It was a close fight but Loma edged it, BUT if you take into account the fact Haney was in there as a medium sized 154Lber, it was an abject humiliation.

And on Bill, he's an attention junkie. 50-0 in the streets but still acting like a big drama queen woman.

Haney finally fought someone his weight and got humbled badly.
