    The deal is he has to face Kambosos twice in Australia and Lomachenko after that but thats only if he stays at 135 if he moves up to 140 that is null and only has to do is beat Kambosos once then move up.

    People complaining about the deal need to get a grip.

    Kambosos is the a side, it makes sense he gets his terms as he wants them.

    Haney is daring to be great, it makes sense he accepts terms favourable to Kambosos.

    This is the best fight in the division.

    As a boxing fan I’m just glad this LW circus is over and we get a good fight. And for Haney if he do win I wish he fulfill that 3rd fight in this contract which is Lomachenko. He’ll get the respect he feels he deserves if he successfully completes this.

    Loma shafted him and decided to get the "franchise" WBC belt instead of fighting his mandatory, that's why this whole LW circus started to begin with. I don't blame Haney for not fighting Loma now, once Haney becomes undisputed all the chickens are in his basket and he can call the shots. I don't really like the kid but you have to give him respect, the man wants the big fights and is willing to make them happen unlike these other entitled frauds.

    Trust I agree Haney did nothing wrong besides signing with the wrong promoter. It was simple he and Teo were coming up Teo went the IBF route he went the WBC route. It’s no fault of his that Arum petitioned the WBC to allow Loma to fight for the vacant belt then become franchise. However this is his chance to quiet all critics and prove that he’s the best at 135 and beating Kambosos and Loma will prove that. He’s too early in his career to worry about getting back at Loma because of that situation by not fighting him.

    And when I say circus I mean all of the twitter fighting without actually fighting in the ring. Teo, Haney, Ryan Garcia, Tank and Kambosos begin to take part in it too.

    Kambosos is good enough to make it close and that might be enough.

    Big props to Devin Haney. He's not hiding behind a promoter fighting in the US and defending BS titles. He's going for it. I like that!

    Good fight.

    I hope Haney wins!

    Good to see the fight happening.

    The deal is not that uncommon. It's no different than any popular British or US fighter. You go to their backyard and you rematch in their backyard.

    How did you see GK getting lucky in that fight? I saw GK out smart and out box Lopez. Lopez fought off emotions loading up from the opening bell, not trying to set anything up with the jab for the first 4-5 rounds. When that didn't work, he looked lost for most of the middle rounds, then when GK slowed, Lopez cracked him. Lopez came in the fight with a stupid game plan with no plan B and it cost him all those belts. Luck had nothing to do with it, but ignorance and arrogance did.

    He Had no where else to go really, what was he gona do? why wouldn’t he take possibly 2 big paydays and potentially be undisputed, he obviously didn’t want it as much as loma did, what took him so long?

    Great fight, props to Haney for putting aside politics being about that life… Not saying he will, but he’s giving himself the chance to be THE guy in a stacked division if he beats Kambo on the road and beats Loma.

    Meanwhile, Tank is fighting Rolly

    hes not going to crack or land ****. haney is going to completly outbox him, also kambosos isnt a big puncher or anything nice weird narrative that he hits hard
    how does it win the win, haney fights NOTHING like the teofimo that fought kambosos
    not at all. Haney 9-3 UD or 8-4 maybe 10-2
