Why so much hate for Haney? He's obviously a very talented, world class fighter who pushed himself against top competition at a young age. Show some respect!

He's not "garbage" like a lot of you idiots on here call him. That's just dumb. He's obviously a very talented, world class fighter and on top of it he has pushed himself against top competition at a young age. You should credit him for that much even if you don't like him.

He took the worst qualities from Floyd and made a career of it smdh...

He a man without a home, one minute he a thug, the next min he's trying to be a babyface, with a WWE mascot parading around as a daddy...the world was waiting to see him get "damaged" and cry about it

It is pretty obvious at this point the reason. We got people pretending they are doing so because of his style, or his father, etc.

Lot of posters come off ad fake and phony given there was a perverse joy when Ryan won, rooted in race. Check a lot of the post fight comments and the subsequent bans.

When it turned out he cheated, a lot of posters looked incredibly bad. Instead of just criticizing Ryan, they doubled down and gave him every excuse.

The fact is those posters don’t care if Ryan cheated using PEDs or not. So long as the black guy lost.

Sad but that is where too many posters are at this point.

Really sad part is that for boxing fans, the positive PED test ruined a great stat making performance by someone many of us see as a boxer that can grow the sport.

Sounds exactly like you making excuses for your crush

[The Big Dunn]

No. Maybe you missed it. Ryan tested positive for PEDs. Both samples.

That is cheating. Almost as bad as lying on a state form to try and get Toradol.

You make excuses. They make excuses.

Its all excuses.

There are two kinds of boxing fans. The kind that understand the sport and how difficult it is to do for a living and admire fighters, and the kind who watch and yell "Just Bleed!!!!!".

Devin was hated before he even broke through. People just hate.

I’ve rooted hardcore for the following fighters on here since 2006:

Roy Jones Jr
Jermain Taylor
Bernard Hopkins
Floyd Mayweather Jr
Zab Judah
Shane Mosley
Joan Guzman
Paul Williams
Guillermo Rigondeaux
Erislandy Lara
Chad Dawson
Andre Berto
Andre Ward
Errol Spence
Terence Crawford (135-140)
Deontay Wilder
Tank Davis

Oh, my bad, for not being a fan of the most annoying active fighter in boxing, Devin Haney.

I’ve been called the N word with the er, was placed in a group called “The Mayweather Mafia” by battlingnelson (didn’t ask for it, was one of the first 5 or so members mentioned in that OP), i’ve been called all sorts of other sneaky racist names.

None of that name-calling ever deterred me from rooting for the fighters I want to root for. Whether they’re Latino, Black, White, Asian, idc.

And being called racist against black fighters isn’t going to make me like Devin Haney, Demetrius Andrade, and Shakur Stevenson.

And i’m sorry but you can never make other fans like a fighter by complaining about it and calling them racist. That’s not how boxing works.
