Comments Thread For: Devin Haney turns his attention to Brian Norman Jnr

[BlackRobb]

Ryan cheated and was juiced to the gills and there is no denying it when he fought Haney. For example, the very first left hook he threw at Haney landed with laser like precision.

Devin didn’t have a chance of evading it. Now let’s look at his fight with Rolly Romero. The very first left hook he threw at Rolly was actually slipped.

Rolando saw that left hook coming from a mile away and then countered with two of them of his own while dropping Ryan to the canvass in the process.

Also the irony is Devin is a lot quicker and faster than the much stronger, slower and wider Romero. Something was definitely wrong with that picture.

PEDs don't improve your focus, though. Ryan looked disinterested against Rolly and very locked-in against Devin. He was a massive favorite over Rolly and a 6:1 dog against Devin. Different circumstances, different focus.

Right after he makes weight he can come
in at 25 pounds heavier like he did vs Prograis
Haney is a weight bully

so could Norman? Re-hydration clauses is for pus*ies

I'm not sure what all these props to Haney all about. Norman himself has yet to prove himself. Beating a couple of nobodies won't suddenly make you a boogeyman.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Sure hope the feather-fisted diva gets it

But he's not the only one and he isn't breaking any rules; if he makes the agreed weight at the agreed date & time. Norman can rehydrate too!

Haney better be careful of what he asks for , Norman has the power and handspeed to land it.

I don't think any US promoter is able to afford the kind of money these people, Norman and Haney, are expecting to be offered, Top Rank, PBC, GBP, BLK Prime, Triller, etc.

Turki is all they have depended on making these fights for them.

They can afford it but they are in business to make money whereas Turki doesn't have to worry about making money. Haney can't generate the money to pay himself much less the rest of the card unless he has a superstar opponent.

In the ring, Brian Norman Jr is kind of like an improved version of Ryan Garcia - Ryan 2.0. He has that crazy left hook, but he can also take a shot and he can fight for 3 minutes of every round because he is disciplined enough to train for a fight and get into a good condition. There is no way that Devin engages with a fighter like that. As in his last fight he will stink out the joint running for 36 minutes to stay out of harm's way. As much as I would like to see Devin knocked out, I can't see it. He no longer has the balls to engage with anyone. He will be on his bike for the rest of his career. Turki says he does not want Tom and Jerry fights any more. Let's see if he pays for this one because this will be exactly like that - cat chasing the mouse for 36 minutes and the mouse running for his dear life.

Devin better get everything that he can from Turki if they make this fight. He pulls another Tom and Jerry and Turki will be done with him. Hell , he might not make it out of Saudi .

Haney embarrassed himself in his last fight! I'm really not interested in watching him fight anymore. He's punch shy now. He's gonna run, run, run from a guy like Norman Jr.

How does that make sense if each of these greedy boxers want $3 million? Where will TR and PBC get that kind of money and how are they going make any return from it? Remember, Norman's dad wanted $2 million for the Ennis fight thinking Turki is involved.(Make no mistake, Ennis fights have all been funded by Matchroom, and Turki had nothing to do with them.) Turki actually made offers to Ennis and Crawford for the Ortiz fight and both of them declined.
