Topic: Boxing: Regis Prograis vs Devin Haney (9th of December) - page 14. (Read 1641 times)
Prograis is a natural 140. He's one of the baddest in SLW. This would be a big challenge for Devin considering his fight against Loma who goes up to 135, practically a smaller fighter but almost defeated Devin. It was a robbery and the majority agreed with this claim.
But I think Devin made a good decision to move up since he is at risk in both weight classes. It's Either Shakur or Prograis so he chose Prograis.
With this news, it would mean Shakur and Loma have a decent chance of happening. Haney moving up seems to be the right decision; his body structure is capable of battling in the higher weight class, and I really think his chance of winning is high.
Not so fast because Devin Haney is making sure that he still has his belts whenever his campaign at 140 pounds will not be fruitful as they imagined it to be, no sense in underestimating the future opponent as well because aside from the fact that Prograis is not an easy opponent to fight, this will be his first fight too at 140, so let's expect that there will be some adjustments to be done first to make sure that he does have a chance.
Also, I think Shakur Stevenson is more interested in fighting Gervonta Davis because by making that bout, he has something to look forward to not Lomachenko who have nothing to offer to the young blood.
I often see Devin Haney in the ring, so he is called the king of lightweight boxing, almost all the belts he has, in terms of age, maybe they are both very different, 24 years and 34 years, but that was not an obstacle for both of them to show their best in the ring, overall their records were not much different from 30 and 29, by winning 15 and 24 knockouts. despite the different ages.
I personally fist between Devin vs. Regis and I predict this boxing will be won by Devin, I'm sure he will win the WBC title this time. no real reason for me, just looking at the situation and luck.
After beating Haney, a lot of great things are happening now for Haney just a few years ago he was trying to get a match against Ryan Garcia who keeps alluding to him, now he has achieved a lot more than what Ryan Garcia achieved and now he is moving up to challenge super-lightweight champion Regis Prograis.
It's another challenge for him, and Prograis will give him a tough fight but still, I see Haney winning this fight via unanimous decision because he is a more polished fighter than Prograis, Porgrais is a strong puncher but Haney is highly technical and has a good ring generalship.

After witnessing one of the biggest fights today, we will soon witness Haney trying to challenge Prograis and steal the belt. This is a good move for him, so people will stop talking about the rematch against Loma due to the controversial decision.
The present champion, Regis Prograis, has an impressive record as well. Although he is not an undefeated boxer, his KO rate is high—24 out of 29 fights, which is equivalent to an 82.7% KO rate. I hope he will be as quick as Haney so he will be able to hit him and use that high KO rate to his advantage.

Regis Prograis record.
This news is already circulating and reliable sources are telling that the undisputed lightweight champion Devin Haney already agreed to move up in weight to challenge super-lightweight champion Regis Prograis this coming October 28 in Las Vegas, Nevada. This is another big fight coming up and the young Devin Haney finally gets his wish to move up since there were issues already in the past that he is killing himself to make the lightweight weight. He will be tested against the 2-time champion and heavy-handed Regis Prograis.
There is a lot of drama in Haney's situation though as most fans and even the stats are saying Vassily Lomachenko beats him and deserves an immediate rematch. There's also the WBC's mandatory for him to face 2 division champion, Shakur Stevenson. And lastly, Top Rank's offer for Haney to face the biggest name at the junior welterweight, the lineal and WBO champion Teofimo Lopez. More updates soon if Haney will be stripped of his belts at 135 as he wanted to keep them while testing the waters at super lightweight.
