    Round 12 Haney 10-9

    Devin came out very aggressive, marching forward throughout, pounding the living hell out of Gamboa, looking for the KO, landing left hook after left hooks, and a ton of power shots, but sadly.... Haney has ZERO power. Gamboa sees the final bell.

    120-107 Haney

    I know Haney says he has a hard time making 135, but I recommend he never move up in weight. In fact, with his power he's better off dropping to 126/130. His lack of power will really catch up with him if he fights anyone beyond the mini manlet size. Even against the blown up FW Gamboa, he looked flat and weak. If this was supposed to be a measuring stick comparing him to Tank or Crawford, he proved he's way below either. I was definitely disappointed tonight. Based on tonights performance he has serious trouble with Teofimo Lopez, Loma, and Tank. At 130 he could fight Shakur, Loma, Berchelt, and Davis. I'm having trouble imagining Haney being favored in any of those matchups. Teo destoys the email champ.

    Does Gamboa actually think he has a chance here? Maybe Haney does hit hard.:lol:

    Gamboa fought not to get KO'd. He usually goes for it when losing so I forgive him.

    Hmm, I win is a win. But this was not impressive by Haney. He's not out of it but I wouldn't pick him over Teofimo (maybe Davis).

    And IDK why people keep talking about Gamboa holding or not being aggressive. How gives a crap about him? His career is over. We came to see Devin Haney, Gamboa's purpose was to be a highlight KO for Haney (which he failed to deliver).

    It would help if he went through puberty and put on some muscle. Up in weight, not down. He's so skinny.

    That's what I think, he looks like a kid. I can't imagine he's ever a monster puncher but he is and will be really good I believe.

    Haney is talented and he didn't do anything wrong but Gamboa is shot to bits and he's been dropped about 100 times and Haney couldn't even really hurt him let alone put him over or get him out of there and it's not like he didn't catch him with plenty of big shots. Haney said he wanted to make a statement but he didn't come close to doing so and I wasn't impressed.

    As for Gamboa, if you compare the prime version of him to the one today he doesn't just look like a completely different person he looks like a completely different species.
