Sh^t Haney is a contender to me now. I don't think he's a indie top ten ranked guy, but he's a guy ranked highly by ABC Group(s) so to me he's not even a prospect anymore.

Who would you consider a "blue chip prospect" btw?

If i was a betting man i would put my money on someone like Oscar Valdez.

Damn you got a harsh eye. Valdez is a title holder for two years now & a for sure top ten guy right now & I think he's a lock inside the top 5. I don't even consider him a contender. He's a tip top guy in his division & well past a prospect to me.

I just do not see it in Haney. I may be wrong but just do not see it ...at least not yet.
He needs to be brought along carefully.

I'm seeing a ring IQ beyond his years in him. And he's got nice quickness. The keeping his mouth open thing is a lil disturbing & I don't understand how he's still doing stuff most mid-level amateurs don't do. But yea I think he needs a few more fights before he thinks about making an attempt at a belt. And he needs for Loma & Mikey to drop a belt or leave the division if he's doing it anytime soon cuz I have a lot of trouble seeing him beat either of those two right now.

Actually i meant to say Teofimo Lopez as the cant miss blue chip.

I am still not sold on Haney as much as i want him to succeed.

Time will tell though

Ok. Yea I certainly got him up there among my top prospects to. He seems like a guy who'll be making moves to so I don't think we got 2 more years of easy mark opponents with him so he should be a fun one to watch sooner than some of these other guys coming up.
