Yeah I would say Haney has the physical advantages in this fight but I think Teo is the more skilled fighter with a slight power advantage and better chin at this weight. I expect Haney to be on his bike all night and hence why I think it could be a dull fight.

I think the weight may be the most important factor, hence why Teo doesn't want to fight Haney at 147. He wants Ennis because that would be a win-win situation, but he won't face Haney or Norman at the same weight. Supposedly Teo doesn't want to face Keyshawn Davis either. He didn't care to face Barboza when Barboza was still at TR, yet he suddenly agreed to fight him when Turki got involved. Teo is moving very carefully, and can't seem to make up his mind on whether he values money or legacy more. Teo could stay at 140 and unify his title, but he's also stated that he wants to move to 147. He doesn't have a concrete mission statement.

Why in another thread that's still current, it says fight is off.
