*** Kirks Championships 2019 *** The Boxing Throne : Boxing Prediction League

Though I like Ndongeni's skill set, I think Haney probably has enough size and speed to win the fight anyway. I do think the South African represents a nice step up for the Dream. Not an easy fight to take at this stage in his career.

 

Oh, and I believe you can still change any time before the fight.

 

I just think Haney has had zero questions asked of him by a high-level pure boxer. Menard couldn't be any more custom-built & gift-wrapped for someone like Haney to shine against. Likewise the version of MiniBurgos he beat was running on about 60% of his prime engine, and was stylistically again not that hard a puzzle to solve.

I'm surprised that literally nobody else is going for Ndongeni, especially with the Daredevil picks being incentivized here.

 

I haven't seen that fight, but the footage I have seen he looks to pass the eye test. Haney does a hell of a lot of showboating and looks honestly bored in all these stylistic mismatches. If he ever sparred hard with really skilled boxers, I'm not sure the muscle-memory of that will come to fore after lapsing into so many lazy habits against come-forward goons for so long.

Timing > speed/athleticism.

 

I get the same kind of cognitive dissonance vibe here as when, years ago, 99.999999999999% of everybody was 99.999999999999% certain that Felix Verdejo was a future p4p #1, and I was the lone voice in the wilderness that was like, "mm...nah..."

Like, yes, I see what people like about Haney but there are still a LOT more questions for him to answer (starting with this Xolani test) before I'm even setting one toe aboard the SS Carried Away.
