I don’t care for Teo nor Haney AND my prediction is Teo will either KO Haney or drop him a couple of times to take a WD.
Haney is not about to engage a heavy hitter like Teo.

I just read on the Ring website that talks collapsed, there is no fight and Devin is blaming Teo for not signing the contract.

So did I. So is this fight on or not?!? What is the actual most recent information?

Haney is insufferable, but his resume is insane. Adding Lopez to his last eight fights - crazy run, win or lose.

Teofimo Lopez
Ryan Garcia
Regis Prograis
Vasyl Lomachenko
George Kambosos Jr
George Kambosos Jr
Joseph Diaz
Jorge Linares
Yuriorkis Gamboa

Lol- what resume! He got destroyed by Garcia and insert the age of Prograis, Loma, Linares and Gamboa. Haney was bully of older and/or smaller fighters.

I believe this is off once more.

Was Lopez knocking boxers left and right at 140? How the hell is he going to knock Haney out at 147? I don't care for Haney but Lopez's racist bs makes it hard for me to root for him. This will fight will be a tactical feast to be enjoyed by the Breadmans of the world, but not me.

Haney would be the toughest opponent of Teofimo's career. In addition, Haney has the overall better resume' as well. Moreover, he would be the best pure boxer he has ever challenged too.

If Haney gets that stick going then it could be a very long night for Lopez. On paper this matchup favors Devin. Not only because he is naturally wider and stronger than "Gordo" but he could also box.

I expect Haney to do a real paint job on him.

Why not at 140?

That one-year layoff made him a lot heavier than usual. So it would make it that much more harder and difficult for him to cut back down in weight. 145 is good catch weight I think for both fighters.

Teo is not as bad as Devin but he wrinkles my nose sometimes. He can have a bad day, why put him in with a rabbit? We know who is the hunter and who is the game. Like Elmer and Bugs Bunny.

However, Devin's performances are the more consistent though. With Teo, we will never know what type of performance we will get from him. As for Haney; He fights only one way and that is by sticking and moving while working behind his jab.

Devin Haney a racist too. And so is his father. Devin said how he would “never lose to a whyte boy”. And then his dumas father came out saying how Mexicans are cheaters

Haney has since apologized and moved on. Where as Teofimo has not. He remains an unrepentant racist. Which could very well lead to him getting robbed by the three judges on their scorecards.

That is if the fight is anywhere near as razor thin close as most boxing fans are expecting and predicting. With that very vile, contemptible and detestable racist shit he spews.
