    He's gonna need a lighter touch if he wants to slowly get his confidence back. Him taking on Pitbull could be a potential career ender for him.

    Yes. Haney should forget Ryan and entice both Tank and Pitbull. His supposed advantages might work over the two, unlike with Garcia. Could very well be rock, paper, scissors after all.

    Tank sparks Haney out

    Pitbull is a winnable fight but very dangerous

    No he needs a comeback fight with a soft touch and a new trainer. Pit bull is too dangerous of a fight coming off a loss.

    This.
    I wouldn´t call Cruz a comeback fight at all. Dude is way too good to be considered anyones comeback fight.

    It’ll be a devastating fight for Haney’s health.

    Haney could pull off the win but he’ll have to give three to take one.

    135 - 147 is a freakshow it seems at the moment, for reasons unknown.

    I agree, I'm beginning to wonder about a fighter who completely drains himself down to 140 then comes into the ring at 165 pounds . That simply cannot be good for your strength , stamina or punch resistance . Perhaps a trainer who'll have him strong at 147 or 154 is the way to go.

    Heck no. A good comeback fight would be against a guy like Arnold Barboza. An undefeated fighter who's limited in the ring. Cruz is one of the top dogs in the division right now.

    He needs someone who doesn’t have power, or very little of it

    Coming off a beat down and a broken jaw the last thing Haney should face is a puncher. He’ll fight Sandor Martin next.
