Devin Haney says he’s doing an open exercise in London, England, this Friday, January tenth. This can be a transfer for Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) to construct his model within the UK for will probably be a future combat in opposition to one of many Brits.
UK Takeover?
Haney isn’t standard within the UK, particularly after his final exhibiting in opposition to Ryan Garcia. If Devin needs to reinvent himself within the UK, it would work, nevertheless it won’t work as a result of he doesn’t see a lot of a future preventing within the U.S. past a well-paying rematch with Garcia.
Jack Catterall is the one man from the UK who is sensible for Haney to combat. Nevertheless, Catterall shouldn’t be standard there or within the U.S. Nevertheless, Eddie Hearn promotes Catterall, so it is sensible from that angle.
If Turki Al-Shiekh is prepared to make use of Haney vs. Catterall for considered one of his Riyadh Season playing cards, Devin would have a pleasant payday. Catterall has zero energy, and it’s a winnable combat for Haney.
Broner or Farmer?
Haney, 26, is reportedly preventing on March twenty fifth on BLK Prime in a PPV occasion. The opponent hasn’t been revealed but; veterans Tevin Farmer and Adrien Broner are rumored potentialities. It could mismatch if it’s going to be the previous four-division world champion Broner.
AB regarded and sounded fairly unhealthy in a put up on social media this week. If he’s going to be Haney’s opponent, it reveals how determined he’s to get a sure-thing win. Broner didn’t appear to be he must be wherever close to a boxing ring. What occurred to this dude?
The southpaw Farmer (33-7-1, 8 KOs) could be a dangerous opponent for Haney as a result of he’s nonetheless preventing at a excessive stage and has sufficient energy in his left hand to complete what Ryan Garcia began. Farmer dropped the extremely ranked light-weight contender William Zepeda of their combat on November sixteenth in a slender 10-round break up choice loss. Haney would have a bonus in measurement as a result of Tevin is light-weight and never large.
Haney was overwhelmed by Ryan in his final combat on April twentieth final 12 months in Brooklyn, New York. He was just about blown out of the water by Kingry, getting dropped six instances, with the referee solely giving him a break on three of the knockdowns by ruling them as slips.
