Winning over, or at least performing well against the Matrix and the Mouthbreather would go a long way towards getting respect. Kambosos was not a challenge IMO.
He came out and fought. Kamboses simply is not on his level and the fights are boring as a consequence even when Haney is standing and fighting. On to bigger and better things.
This was a pointless rematch but I don’t blame Haney, he had no choice because of the contract. Hope he can fight top guys next, while he’s still able to boil down to 135. Massive guy with surprisingly little power. Maybe he will have better power at 140 if the weight loss at 135 is holding him back. It baffles me because he looks like he should be sparking guys out with his fast hands and masssive size advantage.
How many times have you watched him fight and why does this one take away your desire to watch him again?
Not a fan of his style and excessive clinching but I acknowledge his skills and talent as a fighter. I don’t need to be a fan of every single fighter, everyone has a certain preference. That’s like me asking why aren’t you a fan of Inoue or Loma.
I never made a statement that I wasn't a fan of Inoue or Loma. How did you come to that conclusion? I just asked a question and it was answered in an intelligent manner.
What's next for Haney? Yeah he beat kambosis twice, can barely make lightweight anymore, is a pure boxer, great jab, too much clinching, not much mustard on his shots, has the propensity to get buzzed, beat Jorge Linares, sucks the air out of the room but... Is a master boxer, does best when he's boring, also keeps on winning. He is a stud with hand speed, was once included in the 4 kings but: Where are they now? Ryan Garcia: possibly fighting tank next Tank Davis: possibly fighting king ry next Lomanchenko: ? There is no fifth king; kambosis is not in a good position with back to back losses. Someone even said harshly that he had the build of a featherweight. And teo, well he moved up a division. What does Haney have to do next to keep on the up and up and chase greatness? He has all the qualities, necessary to become an atg but at this point in his career what should he do next?
loma schools him... unless haney waits like 2.5-3 years.. tank probs losing until he catches him and KOs haney.. teofimo or garcia no longer in weight class but i think haney beats both unless they catch him which is possible cause i don't think haneys chin is much better then average
Yes he deserves all the credit because he beat the man who beat the man who beat the man and he did it away from home and went on the road. Basically he outboxed Boy George Kambosos twice in Australia and I am glad he refused to accept any WBC Franchise witness protection belt. I look forward to the superfight between him and the superstar boxing world champion 3 weight division champion Gervonta Tank Davis.
So he's basically Andre Ward. Skilful, big for the weight, strong at out-hustling, pillow fisted, entitled, can put a glass eye to sleep. Can't wait till he starts with nut shots and headbutts
