Lopez all day…I have a feeling that Haney won’t recover from the sustained beating he suffered at the hands of Garcia and will NEVER be the same fighter again (similar to Meldrick Taylor). In comparison, Lopez’s only loss was a narrow SD defeat which he bounced back from to capture another world title in a new weight class.

Teofimo Sr vs Bill will be entertaining.

I give Haney many credits for surviving a zombie assault. Delboy, algeiri, Belchert all folded, but Haney made it. I don't think he'll be the same again, but that was all heart that got him through.

Devin gets stopped. Ryan was the first time he fought someone close to his own size. And Teo has the athleticism even without the drugs. Credit to Haney if he takes that fight at all. Put their dads on the undercard...

Haney has the legs to bother Teo but does not have the chin and has a lot of difficulty handling speed. I will definitely watch if this fight happens.

This would be an interesting fight. I wonder which Teofimo would show up ? It will be interesting to see what kind of adjustments to his style , if any , Haney has made since the Garcia debacle.

I'm expecting a lot of holding and running when Haney returns. He's going to play it more safe than ever before. That style is kryptonite to Teo.

I'd watch it if there is nothing else running at the same time slot. Honestly, any fight you can put Haney in will not be interesting unless his opponent makes it. A fight with Teofimo I can see as a hit and move all 12 rds where someone picks up the decision. Wouldn't see either getting a KO of each other.

This is a great fight. Anybody that says otherwise is a hater. Now the loser of this fight will be in a bad place since both of these fighters don't really have a large fan base or sell tickets by themselves. However the winner is the lineal at 140 and most likely be the next king at 147lbs if boots leaves to 154.
