    Up are welterweight I reckon he loses to even old Pacquiao and Barrios. Haney's success has been from his massive size advantage over smaller opponents.

    Respect to Haney for taking the fight, but man I hope he loses. Imo Norman is way more charismatic and engaging. And he just seems secure in himself, he doesn’t try to be something he’s not or worry about meeting other people’s expectations. This fight could put him on the path to being a big star.

    Haney seems like he has no personality outside of boxing, very nervous and fidgety, just keeps repeating the same two points he was coached into saying. I’m surprised they let him do an interview without his dad talking over him the whole time.

    I will give Haney credit for taking this fight, but he has backed himself into a corner with the amount of awful fights he has been in. I feel like Turki has said to him that he's off Riyadh Season and the money that comes with it if he doesn't take this fight. Boots seems to want to have everything his own way and avoid any serious challenges where he doesn't have everything mounted in his favour, but that's a different story entirely. I've got Norman winning this one by stoppage between round 6 and round 9.
