Bill Haney says his son Devin will awaken a 147 -pound division, just as he did in slight and slight weight. Haney (31-0, 15 ko) can fall apart in his next fight against Jose Ramirez in May before he cut his teeth at 147 at all.
Ramirez test
Devin’s fight against former WBC champion and WBO Light Welterweight Ramirez (29-2, 18 KOS) is a setting for a removal for a rematch with Ryan Garcia in October. Haney must cross Ramirez (32) to create an interest in a rematch.
Turks al-sheikh is likely to still put the rematch of Haney-Garcia, even if Jose Ramirez Beats Devin, but the interest of the fans will not be there in these circumstances.
“If we beat Ryan as we did and we should have managed well in the fight, a rematch is worth more money,” Bill Haney told ThaboxingvoiceThinking of the loss of Devin Haney of Ryan Garcia last April.
“If we had saved each other [him] And it was a victory and determined, no one would pay the fight anymore. But thank you Turks al-Sheikh, who stepped up. The controversy is also sold and everything that happens is in the Welterweight Division.
“We know that the Division in the Welter Weight has historically been Sugar Ray Leonards, Duran, Errol Spence, Terrence Crawfords, Floyds, Bertos, Keith Thurmans, have historically earned more money.”
Bill is right to be a rematch worth more because of the loss of Devin. If Kingry beat Kingry, as many expected, the other fight would have been meaningless, especially if the victory would be one -sided like Haney’s victories over George Cambosos Jr. and Regis Programis. He acted in Devin’s favor to lose last April.
Haney has messed up without staying active in the last 10 months since the defeat because he could fight twice and earned millions. In order for the former world champion in two divisions Haney to sit on shelves, he hinted at the lack of confidence and the unwillingness to risk the mega-novin who can make in the rematch with Ryan.
Bill talks about former greats Leonard, Duran and Mayweather, but these guys stayed active. Would not have done what Haney did if they had beaten them. If Devin had been cut from the same cloth as those fighters, he would have returned to the ring so far and fought with one of the best candidates in 140.
Lever
“So Devin brought excitement to light [division]; He woke up a 140 -pound division, and we expect it to take over a 140 -pound division. It’s not different, “Bill Haney said.
In order for Haney to make his mark at 147, he will have to prove himself against the Jaron ‘boots’ of Ennis and Eimantas Stanionis. These are the two best in Welterweight. It will not be enough for Devin to win the WBC champion Mario Barrios, who is considered to be the weakest link between the champions in the division.
At the moment, I suspect Haney could beat WBO champion Brian Norman Jr., and he is probably the third best by the belt holder in the division.
