    I got Haney beating Lopez if it happens. Although I saw Teo as a bit crude and he impressed me with his ring smarts against Loma. Should be a good fight but I still think Haney is something special, he just hasn't had chance to fully prove it yet.

      I would need to see Haney face some better competition before trying to predict the outcome of a Lopez vs. Haney fight. Lopez is beating legit world champions, and Haney is fighting part time unranked journeymen fighters. From the "eye test", Haney looks like he has all the tools, but I want to see how he reacts to losing a round or two. How does he react to getting buzzed?

      A 38 year old Gamboa will be a step up for the kid, but he needs to win that fight, and look good doing it...

        I have Teo winning, Dont think Haney has the power to win. Plus Teo is more athletic than people think. I just wonder how far Teo can go with his father as lead trainer. I think a guy like Freddie Roach or Robert Garcia could do wonders for him. The Reynosos would be great too, but they have Ryan Garcia so that wouldnt work.

          He won't run and do nothing for 7 rds. It'll be a better fight than what Loma put up

            Haney can also very well lose that fight. I underrated Teo's IQ, grit.

              I don't underestimate Teo at all and he'd be a slight favorite in the fight but it would be a better fight than the one we saw Saturdat

                It's the better fight but who knows what happens. The WBC could order Haney to fight the Garcia-Campbell winner or Fortuna. IBF could order the Kambosos-Selby winner as well.

                  He has a chance to win but in my opinion it is a very small chance. My eyes tell me Lopez is a much better fighter. Lopez has a great KO win over a real champion Commey and then beat the pound for pound best fighter in the world. Who has Haney beat worth a damn and why is he fighting a washed up 38 year old Gamboa who lost his last fight by KO. Good champions don't do that.

                    Lopez only ever beat Commey before comprehensively beating a top 3 lb 4 lb fighter.

                      You conveniently left out the part where Loma got rolling and won rounds 8 9 10 and 11 unless you honestly believe Lopez won any of those 4 rounds.
