    Haney has nearly maxed out his potential. His weight bullying tactics arent going to be effective at the bigger weights. There is nothing winnable for Devin above 140 assuming he can even clear it. Ennis and Spence would stop him

    Great call!

    All Garcia had to do was cleverly come in a few pounds overweight and his power was far too much for Haney to handle

    Garcia went out on the ale all week and still beat the **** out of Nostrils!

    Tszyu has a much brighter future.

    Haney just got exposed as a glass jawed, pillow fisted hype job

    Garcia went out on the ale all week and still beat the **** out of Nostrils. Garcia beat 3 people, Haney, the ref, and that judge!

    Haney sucks.

    Tim Tszyu and it's not even close. Tim is a real throw back fighter and tough as hell built for war Haney is not.

    Tim Tszyu Proved he had a fighters heart he refused to quit. There should be a rematch as soon as both fighters are healed up & 100% to end the controversary

    Haney should step and face someone his own size like Tszyu ;) We all know what would happen there

    Haneys been exposed. Getting chinned like will be interesting to see if he can come back the same as before. From here on I hope for his sake he grows punch resistance.

    Yes true! And this is one of the indications that boxing overall is at a very low level right now as far as skills go.

    It seems almost any Champion could get beaten by almost anyone else in the top 10, maybe even top 20 and it would not surprise me. I have never felt this way about boxing as a fan and I've been watching since the '70s.

    Haney Tim is 30 years old and is who he is at this point. Haney is 24 and with a real trainer will get better.

    Haney is actually 26 this year, and has been a pro longer than Tszyu!!

    Haney looks much older than his age, and I doubt he'll be still fighting at this level in his 30's considering he has glaring weakness in the chin and power departments.
