Comments Thread For: His kind of town: Richardson Hitchins stops George Kambosos Jnr in NYC

Interesting thing is? Out of Devin Haney, Teofimo Lopez and Richardson Hitchens 'I think Haney is the bigger fighter, and has more of a following in the game. Haney has been involved in many more intriguing narrative driven fights than all those guys, win or lose this is what builds interest in a fighters career. And? Haney can still be involved in big fights, without competing against Lopez or Richardson'.

But in terms of current ability and form? I honestly think Richardson Hitchens would beat Devin Haney right now 'If that fight is made next, I would back Hitchens to beat Haney. They are stylistically similar type of fighters, with Hitchens having the better boxing fundamentals, punching mechanics and offensive game'.

Note: The most difficult fight out there for Richardson Hitchens is against Teofimo Lopez 'I would make Lopez the favourite to win, but it is still a close fight to call going from their recent form'.

I still think Ryan Garcia, and Rolly Romero can also be involved in this group of fighters 'Devin Haney suffered a brutal and controversial loss to Garcia. The loss is not being recorded on his resume, but regardless? Haney would have still experienced that beat down and traumatic experience. If Haney is to challenge Lopez and Hitchens in the future, I personally think he needs to avenge his loss to Garcia. Now may also be a optimal time to pursue that fight, with Garcia's last performance not being so great'.

To conclude: I was impressed with Richardson Hitchens vs George Kambosos Junior 'But I am kind of aware, that it was a solid win and nothing much more. I think Richardson Hitchens needs to pursue the biggest fights possible, because unlike? Devin Haney and Teofimo Lopez. I don't think Richardson Hitchens form at 140 pounds is going to last very long. I think soon enough he will need to move up into the 147 pound weight division. Therefore he might as well attempt to smash those other top fighters up, before moving into the next division' etc.

Devin Haney has very, very little following and without a name in the other corner he can't sell a PPV. IMO, Hitchens and Haney are a pickem fight. If Richard gets too cerebral he'll over think and risk losing in a stinker. You make some good well thought out points, good read.

Lopez vs Haney is 50 /50
if Haney tries to stand with him Haney gets dropped and if Haney runs around then he wins
but just like Lopez seems to be ducking Haney
Haney is gonna avoid hitchens like Spence avoided Crawford

Agreed.....until I see them in the ring I won't believe it, never did.

Where’s your proof? Haney is only 5’8 with a 72 inch reach advantage. So he is a naturally smaller guy also.

Therefore, If what you are stating is true. Then perhaps all of Haney’s future opponents should stipulate a rehydration clause in their contracts before fighting him.

Proof? Really? One pound per hour over 24 hours is not possible without magic or cheating. Haney can't shrink down like he used to, he's going to have to start fighting guys closer to his true weight class and still, he'll pick plodders and guys that he can have a weight advantage.

Haney's problem is that name fighters are on to him and if he sticks to no names he can't pay the bills because he's simply not a draw.
