    Really don't see anything special about Haney, he's decent but that's about it

    Never said he accomplished much at WW but I personally consider JCC's prime ending with Frankie Randall (someone he would've never lost to in his prime), losing to Sweet Pea doesn't say you're prime or not prime because Sweet was at the very highest level of the game. You're focusing on the wrong thing though, my point was during that undefeated stretch only Whitaker gave it to him. Haney ain't no Whitaker.

    The Randall fight was just a few months after the Whitaker fight, I feel like by the time of the Whitaker fight Chavez was already a bit past his prime at that point. And it didn't help that the fight was at Welterweight which as I've said wasn't a good weight for Chavez.

    Thats not to say I don't think Whitaker wouldn't of always gave Chavez alot of problems which he would've, but I feel like at Lightweight a few years before it would've been a much better contest.

    As for Haney/Chavez I'm in total agreement to me it probably look like Mayweather/Chavez 2, with Haney having some success early on and then getting broke down and stopped in the 2nd half.

    Haney’s head ends up on one side of the ring and his body on the other.

    Chavez decapitates Haney every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

    Chavez was unbeatable for 89 fights, actually 90 if you want to add the draw before he lost to Randall. Devin Haney couldn't hold Chavez's jockstrap.

    Its also worth mentioning that the Sweet Pea fight was more competitive than the common narrative would have you believe… Sweet Pea definitely should have won, but it was no one sided beating or boxing lesson..

    You la
    You can laugh, but Loma dominated him, while weighing 4 weight classes less than Haney. So, explain how Haney's size helped him? What, Loma would have knocked him out if they were the same size?
