      Lopez vs Haney will be a pipedream

      Loma vs Haney is a more possibility
      I'm sure Mauricio Sulaiman would be more than happy to rank Bumchenko #1. for Devin Haney, but Vasily is very prideful and I think he might be too embarrassed to crawl back to Devin after dismissing him.

      This booger Lomachenko is likely to challenge Gervonta Davis or Santa Cruz for the WBA regular lightweight title.

        This is about money...any fighter that doesn't have a direct contract with a network might be negotiated. Devin Haney is dangerous and he is obligated to a network.

          See.....this is what I just don't understand. If Arum is trying to freeze out one of Eddie's fighters...then WHY THE HELL IS EDDIE NEGOTIATING THE AJ/ Fury fight??? Why not leave fury out in the cold until Arum dies or decides to play fair? This is just ****** to do any business with Top Rank.....its gonna backfire on Hearn for not using some damn common sense.

            Like I said before, and I'll say it again until NSB listens.

            Ryan Garcia is the money draw in the BUSINESS of boxing.

              Haney is becoming the most avoided fighter at 135 and for good reason.

                This is just an acknowledgement that Devin Haney is the most dangerous fighter for Teofimo Lopez to fight.

                Just like he was for Lomachenko.

                Which is why Haney was sidestepped for the WBC belt. Then avoided by Lomachenko (as a mandatory challenger) late last year when they petitioned for the WBC franchise belt.

                Let's see what Teofimo Lopez does. And let's see how much DAZN offers him to fight Haney.

                I'm guessing they need to put up $10-15 million.

                  I think Lopez already has 2021 lined up in Arum’s mind

                  Zepeda early
                  Verdejo mid
                  Taylor-Ramirez winner late

                    Well Davis dismissed him before. Why would he entertain him now?

                    If Loma stays @ 135 and if Arum will not hold him, he’ll take on that ‘avoided man’
