Comments Thread For: Arum: Devin Haney Has To Prove Himself To Earn Teofimo Lopez

[daggum]

Daggum, how did you score Teo vs Loma?

cant remember it was so horrible, at least the first half, if i remember 6 rounds for lopez 4 for loma and 2 even sounds about right. how did you score haney vs all his bums? why do you want haney vs someone who is legit? its like having the super bowl where one team goes through the entire playoffs beating the best teams and then some other team who has been playing college teams comes along and says oh its my turn! why? you havent been part of the league my dude!

Hopefully Lopez goes against the winner of Campbell-Garcia, possibly after satisfying his mandatory, although I think he'll be at 140 sometime next year.

Pretty sure you were mad about the Teo vs Loma outcome. Kinda emotional when it comes to Lomachenko...

if haney loses when he steps up in comp doesnt that prove he didnt deserve a lopez fight in the first place? why does he get the big fights after fighting literally nobody? because of politics and hype? is that what you are saying? great reason! fighting one top 10 guy is too much to ask? is that how bad boxing has become. answer: yes

It was the same with Teo, somebody has to give a up-and-coming guy a chance. Or all we hear is hasn't fought anybody. Before fighting Comey, Teo was invthe same position. And then he got Vasily because they were both TR fighters. Promoters are gonna protect their top guys because if a guy is not under their promotion these guys won't sign bogus contracts that Promoters used to get signed saying u win u now fight for me. So they use BS excuses, about their records, if they sell if they do this or thats...BS...just make the damn fights all the other stuff will work itself out

In short, I don't want my gravy train to be derailed.

Arum is on the money here. And I want people to pay close attention to what he said.

He said Haney hasn't EARNED Teofimo.

Just like Crawford hasn't EARNED Spence.

You can be a good fighter - Haney's a good fighter, Crawford's a good fighter, but neither have anything on the resume to EARN the top guy.

This is just the fact of the matter.

[M Bison]

Lol why does he? I know he was gifted a world title but he still holds it, that alone is enough incentive surely.

Why doesn't Bob just come out and say he isn't 100% confident Teo beats Haney so Bob doesn't want to risk chancing losing a world champ in his camp.

Same old story from Bob and Massa Al over in the States.

We all know Haney would box circles around Lopez, its ******ly obvious. There are levels and Lopez just doesn't have that boxing brain to hang at. Haney would make it a stinker and have Lopez frustrated so obvious.

haney would get brutally ko by fortuna right now.

lopez would actually kill him.
****** funeral and everything.

[ShoulderRoll]

But let me guess, George Kambosos has proved himself? And that fight will make a lot of money?

Arum is so full of sh*t.

[ShoulderRoll]

What is this thing where Arum controlled LW’s feel Haney has to “earn” a shot at a title he was the mando for?

Now he has to earn a unification.

This is getting a bit ridiculous.

Remember when Arum said Haney signed with the wrong promoter?

He is making him pay for that.
