What can Matchbook actually do for Boots at this point? Would have loved to see Boots with PBC.......could have had Spence, Tszyzu, Charlo, Fundora and maybe Bud at 154. It's incredible how weak the 147 pound division is now that Bud & Spence are moving up.


140 might be the most interesting division in Boxing. Really going to be interesting to see how Devin Haney navigates Matias/Teo/Cruz. Feels like Haney will be on his way to being a three division champ soon because I fully expect Bill to manage this carefully and then avoid Boots to get a belt at 147. He's going to be a three division world champ soon.

We're likely going to look back in a couple of years and Haney is going to have a hall of fame resume better than pretty much all of his peers.

Devin can angle for Teo and then activate the 147 mando if he wins as the wbo should be freed up soon

Smart money is clearly Haney UD. Idk tho, something tells me Ryan is gonna end up catching Haney and have him walking funny to his corner like Linares did.

It can happen. Ryan needs to be locked in mentally like Buster Douglas. Ryan didn’t impress me in his last few fight. His stamina best be right and he can’t be taking rounds off. It’s going to be hard for anyone to beat Devin right now unless you are truly elite. He is razor sharp being that he is an active fighter and I like that even though I didn’t see him as being a special fighter earlier in his career.

If I'm being honest I think Devin is an overachiever. He's not, in my opinion, a boxing prodigy in that he came out the gate and you knew right away he was special. He was a guy with a lot of talent who was trying to hone his craft, whose career has almost been perfectly guided by his father. I'm not a big fan of Haney or his father, btw, but the truth is the truth. He has fought the right type of fighters to develop. By the time he's truly ready to be at the very top, he will likely get there and stay there for a long time.
