Haney definitely strikes me as a young breh trying a little bit of everything with his appearance trying to find himself and shyt lol

I guess I have an expectation of Boxing stars being trend setters or just swagless gym rats not followers.

Devin before he was with the IG thot had his lane with the clean cut and Dapper Dan ring attire and thats when I was rocking with him hard but then he started getting insecure with the power comments + started swag chasing and dude just seemed lame as shyt to me lol.

Is Haney still a FA right now or did he go back to Hearn
Is it a reason why it's been no serious discussion around him fighting Tank?
this prob a short term deal to leave option for Tank next yr. I believe Devin's relationship with Matchroom was more management than network (like he had to do with ESPN to get the belts).

Nah, I'm with you 100%. I liked how he moved at first but it does seem like he's trying to compensate with some of the stuff he's doing. Feeling the need to push Loma at the weigh-in seemed like part of that.

It's going to work in his favor though because lameness and insecurity makes him more of a heel. The general public was pissed after that Loma fight and dude could eat good becoming that nikka people tune in hoping he gets his ass whooped lol.

Why wait, Tank already served his sentence. Looks like Haney will move up sooner than later, why wouldn't Tank be pushing to give Haney some bread and get all them belts before he moves up. nikka just sitting back content to beat up mid Mexicans, and Haney trying fight everybody but Tank :francis:

Thank isn't going to 135, and Tank has told everyone he doesn't care about belts lol Tank is moving into legacy mode but Devin took the Regis fight so we can't blame tank for this.

I see Devin being “knocked off” in the next 2 yrs. He will still have a great career but he’s gonna be the Zab Judah of this story if that makes sense
I could see the vulnerabilities. He’s a good carbon copy of Money Mayweather style, his skillset is not as innate though.

People like Floyd feel punches before they’re thrown. There’s like some sense that moves them out of the way of things moving toward them, this is a strong expression of the instinct of self-preservation from which Mayweather controlled his career inside and out of the ring with


Devin Haney has the techniques but is missing that small piece. So he is beatable and I see that so I don’t feel the need to see him in there with everyone

I wanna see Boots and Bud I wanna see Shakur Stevenson. Haney has glaring holes but is really good and I wouldn’t mind seeing him work at managing his career the way Floyd did during the Money era
