    I don't see Haney's IQ any better than Norman. Not unless you count moving a whole lot with the occasional pot shot here and there as high IQ. They might as well be in another sport.

    Is Turki still pushing that fighters need to fight on his cards? Why not give mega KO bonuses if they want to see more action? I just know that Haney will not be trading with Norman once he feels the power.

      Avoiding conflict has become synonymous in boxing lexicon with "high IQ".

        A fighter with an elite IQ does not get knocked on his back three times by Cryin Ryan. This trainer glazes Devin like he's Shakur. He's nowhere close to Shakur. This fight is actually a mismatch and I'd be shocked if it goes past seven.

        Regis Prograis has always been overrated. Beating him means nothing to me.

          haneys real resume is pretty weak, kambosos and prograis? and a fading prograis at that. if he can beat norman he will get some respect even though norman clowned his way to the top by ducking

            It totally sounds as if this person can't be negative towards or about Devin "Holding Ass" Haney! I'm friends with his dad and have been with him so long same old story most yes men say and do, GTFOH. Devin has been running from Shakur and any other threat by jumping weight and running scared. Bill had nothing going for himself so he does what all lost souls do then wanna come off like he hard, negro please! Go sit yo soft ass down too! Brian is a good dude and I'm rooting for him to make Devin quit and I hope his loud daddy need to toss a towel in also.

              Don’t forget Lomachenko. He is also on Haney’s resume.

                Maybe you can make the argument that Haney has better foot work than Norman? But still.....Hand speed power, power, and aggressiveness will most likely erase Haney's movement and snapping jab. Haney has to avoid his left hook for 12 rounds and I don't see that happening.

                  Haney is getting knocked out.....most likely within 3 rounds

                    Aren't you always bltching about Arum and how he makes sure nobody leaves him without losing their 0? How come Arum didn't take it when he fought loma?
