    It easy to say that but the fact is that Tank is a star and every fighter at 135 is gon have to see him.

    Good, there is already some beef & hostility for this fight. They better not postpone it or move it around.
    Weird from the Haney to go up when so much unfinished business at 135. It's not like he old and can't make the weight and it will be harder to come back later. Loma needs to get Stevenson and Davis before they move up too. Davis talking about ko'ing Crawford at 147, lol, you better get fights around your weight first.

    Why is the date so important.

    A couple of weeks either way, who cares?

    They want to see him it's him that doesn't want to see anyone who is any sort of threat to him. He's in arguably the best division in boxing and he still hasn't fought anyone and doesn't seem he will anytime soon. Fighting bum ass Colbert next and wanting to fight a 122 pound fighter afterwards what a clown and a fraud.

    A contract is a contract
    Devin laughing at regis having a boss
    The same boss who got his email belt sent to him
    Devin is weak

    Not surprising. Loma can't afford to take another L right now. Maybe he should just move back down to 130.

    Because it's a mind game and a way by the Haney camp to posture and show they control every aspect of the matchup.

    Haney needs to keep his date and loma needs to fight Shakur.

    That guy makes up false headliners with old photos for clicks & is all BS content, is racist & makes it all up, surprised you would bother clicking on that at all, better if sticking with known sources for real news

    He won't get honest scoring at that division either.

    For you everyone is racist, who said even one word about black guys, that you don't like. That's sensitive US ****, that would have been destroyed in my country


    I'm not from US/UK, my country don't have bad reputation of treating others. We never had slaves, never even expelled jews from our community. (most of the european countries did that, if you read the history)


    My P4P list
    1.BUD
    2. Inoue
    3. rest of the MF'ers


    I don't give a **** about skin colors, race, ethnicity... my trainer is from Cuba, I chose him because of his mentality and ability to train big guys, not by other criteria.


    For you it's important to always mention skin color, why ? Is it that bad in the US ? or you have some sort of sick joy to play the victim ?


    Haney is a fake piece of **** because of his actions, attitude and words, not anything else.

    I'm not too vexed about a changing date. The date and venue always are subject to tinkering even after the main terms are agreed. The point is to maximize the fight's success at the gate and on TV/PPV. As long as Haney isn't trying to push the fight by two months or something, it should be fine.

    Once tickets go on sale, *that's* then the fight truly is locked in.
