    I never understood that one. It's as if Haney was doing everyone a huge favor, he's doing it for charity or save planet earth. A lot of veteran fighters always brag about having fought abroad in their era, yet here is Haney getting unbelievable props for fighting in modern Australia.

      I cannot imagine there would be enough money in the pot for both of fights on the same card. Paro will want to make a career high payday and as a champion fighting in Australia, he deserves it. Devin has made a bit of money in his last 4 fights so he will expect a big purse as well.

        It should be a competitive fight, technical, long distance but competitive.



        If IBF enforces their 10% rehydration rules, Haney can’t do it! He won’t!!!!

                Devin has to come back one day. We have to see if he was destroyed or not. I don't wish it on him I have to be honest though... I have a feeling when that chin gets checked it ain't going to be pretty.

                  I’ve wondered what will happen when his chin is touched too. Many great boxers are not the same after getting that chin exposed!

                    You are right. That fight needs its own separate venue and card in order to produce it in the states.
