Boxing: Regis Prograis vs Devin Haney (9th of December)

[Viscore]

I like to see Ryan Garcia, safer for Haney and at the same time I think it'll be more of an entertaining fight.

I remember Haney wanting to fight Ryan but the Golden Boy Promotion didn't want it because they were still in the process of building up King Ryan after a few years so many things have changed Haney is now a double division champion while Ryan hasn't won a single major title.

Haney just got better while Ryan is deteriorating this is because Haney is not afraid to take challenges while Ryan is cherry-picking his opponents if they will be the next to square off in the ring I don't think Ryan can keep up with Haney's speed and accuracy, Prograis is an easy fight but if it's going to be a much easier fight when he faces Ryan.

Prograis able to engage through trash talk in the face-off and weigh in but not in the actual fight. I thought Haney would play safer but it was Prograis who is obviously not on the level of his challenger, I mean he is below. That was probably the easiest championship fight for Haney, his face was fresh after the fight but Prograis was all busted, lucky for him he didn't get knockout, otherwise that would be a big "shame on him" moment in his boxing career.

Well he did recognized Haney after that fight and he said that he didn't expect that Haney is this good. Maybe it's not underestimating by his trainer and Prograis himself, but the game plan of Haney and he even knock him down. So no excuses for Prograis, he did train very hard in this fight including those trash talking that made this fight very interesting for boxing fans.

But we all know that odd makers put him at a huge 3:1 or even 4:1 underdog at the start.

And so then we discuss that it's either Progais KO Haney early, or Devin winning by a UD in the judges scorecard. So the latter happen, what's next for Haney? He is already a champion once again, so he better fight other belt holders here, and I think he can unify again.

[Baofeng]

Ryan Garcia is calling him up, so this will be great if these fight will happen 2024. Even Oscar Dela Hoya already twitted that he wanted Ryan Garcia vs Devin Haney next and obviously there will be a lot of money here if this fight materialized.

But we will have to give Devin Haney his props in this fight, they carefully chooses Regis here because they know that they can beat him. No offense to Regis, but it seems that he is already on the sunset of his career as per his performance before this fight that's why Bill Haney targeted him.

Let's see, lots of fight for money and legacy for Devin Haney in this division.

The bout ended in a UD so I think many competitive boxers will try to take him down. I mean, if it's a TKO/KO then they might avoid him but it's a UD which means there's a chance. Although he dominated every round against Regis Prograis there's still that lingering doubt that he will be the most dominant fighter in this division. We've seen dominant, champions and boxers that are being avoided by many even though the belt is on the line.
I bet there will be a champion from another organization that will try to unify those belts.

Or.

Ryan Garcia is calling him up, so this will be great if these fight will happen 2024. Even Oscar Dela Hoya already twitted that he wanted Ryan Garcia vs Devin Haney next and obviously there will be a lot of money here if this fight materialized.

Money and title. Hmmm. This could be good but do imagine the risk Haney will take if this happens. Ryan Garcia had been trying to climb the rankings for a chance of a title match. I don't think he is ready and he is still all just hype. But like you said there will be a lot of money on the line because of Ryan's fame in the social media industry.

Yeah, no disrespect to Regis but Haney's camp did their homework. Going up the ladder is not easy because it could slow down a fighter and yet Haney still dominated the bout. I was expecting Prograis to give him one punch that would tell the difference in their weight class but that didn't happen, it's like he is the one who was played.

[Dave1]

I want Haney to go after Ryan Garcia, and if that fight happens, I think Haney will school Garcia just like what he did against Regis here. And with that added weight, I think Haney absorb the power or Regis and then himself having the power to knock him out.

Although we really don't like the style of Haney, he seems to be very effective.

And he is also maturing and turning to be a great fighter now and he is about to hit his prime years.

Ryan also wants Haney and there is news that's coming out that Oscar promotion will make it happen, that's a big turn around, Haney has been wanting to face Ryan in the past, but now they are the ones coming for him, analyzing both fighters recent fight I don't think Ryan can keep up with Haney's speed and skill, there's a big gap between the two, Haney is just too good and he's getting better he was sharpened by those great fights with Loma and Kambosos, while Ryan do not have big names in his resume that he has beaten, except Edwards, of course, Tank demolish him.

This fight might happen. Both boxers are still probably interested to have this fight. And their respective promotions are probably interested also because this is good money for them. Despite the two not really amazing fighters with Ryan having no belt to put at stake and Haney being very too careful, there may be fans who want this.

Haney is indeed very effective. His style is a winning style, but very boring style. He can even maintain a perfect record with that defensive strategy, but he should get used to loud boos in his fights.

[FinneysTrueVision]

I'm seeing the result like what we've seen today if he meets any one of these guys because they are not spectacular to counter Haney's move, I like to see Haney against Tank, that's the fight that will look even.

Everybody wants to see Tank fight an elite opponent but he is content with mismatches because he can make a lot of money without much effort. He is the biggest star out of all the lightweight and super lightweight fighters so he can pick whoever he wants. He can talk all the trash he wants about Haney on social media but in the end he won't back his words up inside the ring, instead he'll choose a less threatening option like Isaac Cruz.

And to those who were disappointed because this is a PPV event, it's because Eddie's favorite fighter is in the undercard.

One of the most overhyped and overrated fighters I've seen in a long time. Being an online thot with huge implants and blonde hair can only get you so far. Ebanie has no significant talent and at her age won't really improve. At least she has a sizable following of degenerates willing to pay for her "content", so when Eddie inevitably kicks this sideshow act to the curb she has some other source of income to fall back on.

That would help Haney to make a good payday as Ryan Garcia is very popular, he could help sell the PPV subs just like what he did against Tank Davis. On the other hand, this would also help Garcia back in a championship fight again, and a win here (although unlikely) would make him a champion. So it's a win-win for both fighters if we are looking an some earning opportunity.

Yeah, and probably this is the reason why Garcia is calling Haney right now after that win of Devin. So it's just a matter of time before this two will fight. And I don't think that it's going to be very hard to negotiate. I mean Oscar could easily get down and sit with the Haney's or vice-versa. And then both camps accepting what the split as they don't that there are a big money on the line here. So as you have said, it's a win win situation, Ryan fighting for a belt again, and with his new trainer, he seems to be motivated and all his mental issues is gone. On the other hand, Haney is cementing his legacy, unified the belt at 135 lbs, and now a new champion at 140 lbs and he can do the same here. And I here him saying that he could be the fighter of the year and his dad, trainer of the year.

I am not sure how many paid followers she has but probably more than enough that enabled her to get a name in the sport even with her mediocre skills. And I'm glad she lost.
Meanwhile, Ryan Garcia is opening his mouth again. But will he walk the talk or it's just for publicity again? He better be careful since GBP still has a live contract, Oscar and BHop would love to make it since it is a big fight even if they knew Ryan is going to get schooled worse than Prograis or even get stopped in the late rounds.

As for Prograis, he's turning 35 next month. He's still planning to become a 3-time world champion but I doubt it will happen unless he lands a Hail Mary punch. It's okay to lose but he seemed clueless against Haney and before that, he also had another poor performance but he managed to escape with a split decision. He's probably done, maybe Ryan should fight him next and exploit what's left of him.

Maybe Ryan Garcia should fight Prograis first before eyeing a fight with Haney. Two successive bad performances for Prograis but I think it won't be an easy fight for Garcia if ever the two will meet in the ring as Garcia also got an unimpressive win against Duarte.

IMO, Haney will have second thoughts on whether he will fight Garcia as the latter is taller than him and heavy-handed and also quick which would pose problems for him. That lucky punch is one thing that Haney avoided and Garcia has that so I think he won't pick Garcia unless the price is right.

I don't think Garcia is ready for Haney because that could be an easy win for him all he needs to do is set up a good defense and make Garcia tired as usual. Garcia needs to at least excel in all efforts to improve his stamina and win some fights as easily as before because, with that kind of conditioning, he won't be surviving a kind of opponent like Haney because these guys are masters when it comes to 12 rounds non-stop actions inside the ring.

It will be up to Haney. Ryan doesn't have anything to offer but his popular name. But since Haney is a boring fighter, it might help that his opponent is Ryan Garcia, even if he isn't anymore the King Ryan that the boxing world used to know, to attract fans and make money.

Ryan is calling everybody even if he's not anymore a star. Haney may take the challenge and probably even win. Ryan is only confident from the outside. Inside, he's a sad, lonely, and fearful little boy.

Of course, even if Ryan doesn't have the belt at 140 lbs, he can generate money thru PPV as he has a lot of followers, and it's a low risk high reward for the Haney's. They know that they can defeat Ryan as this point. Although Ryan has won his last fight, and has some changes in style, but I don't think that is enough to give Haney a problem. Haney is improving as we speak.

Ryan is calling everybody even if he's not anymore a star. Haney may take the challenge and probably even win. Ryan is only confident from the outside. Inside, he's a sad, lonely, and fearful little boy.

And that's how Ryan create hype for his name, he call's everyone along his path. Remember even Manny Pacquiao was in his target list before. So if Haney wanted more money or at least get his biggest paycheck he might want to choose Ryan Garcia next.

[Japinat]

Ryan is calling everybody even if he's not anymore a star. Haney may take the challenge and probably even win.

He knows his value mate, his a PPV boy. Even if he is not a champion now, i think we can consider him as a star since he is very popular in boxing. And with his recent win, we can see that he wants to come back and I wouldn't be surprise if he'll get a championship fight soon since promoters would be happy to see him in the ring as the fight will surely sell to the crowd, and of course to the PPV subscribers.

Ryan is only confident from the outside. Inside, he's a sad, lonely, and fearful little boy.

We know what he went through, he admitted he had some mental health issue, but he's fine now, at least that's what his camped said.

Ryan won against a nobody. Duarte wasn't somebody in boxing, so even if it was a knockout for Ryan, it was actually nothing. It didn't really show a big improvement. But at least Ryan had his conditioning match. But that wasn't probably enough preparation if he faces Haney next. He better start with Prograis, who didn't win a single round against Haney but could even defeat him, and Haney will face Gervonta next.

Yes, Ryan is a low risk high reward option for Haney. High reward only for money of course. Ryan doesn't have anything else to offer on the table.

Yes, we can even call him a PPV king for this year, him and Davis has the highest PPV when they fought. Although it takes two boxers inside the ring, but I think Ryan bring so much in the table hyping any fight of his. Just like the last time wherein he even have a beef with his boss, Oscar and Bernard and then knocking out Duarte.

We know what he went through, he admitted he had some mental health issue, but he's fine now, at least that's what his camped said.

When a fighter wins, I don't think they ever come across about mental health or not. So obvious in this case, him and Derrick James could have a long and good relationships if he keeps on winning fights with James as his trainer.

Bai, I agree with yazher. Ryan Garcia is easy work for Devin Haney. Ryan is tall which means his body is easier to hit and Haney might be light-handed but he is too quick and smart. So far Ryan remains unproven to me. Ryan might be quick on his training but he cannot execute them and will have doubts when inside the ring against caliber fighters. He carries a punch though but based on his last fights and at 140, Devin Haney will enter the ring not dehydrated so he will be stronger, quicker and I also believe he can stop Ryan in the mid to late rounds. It will be a brutal massacre IMO. Ryan's face gets disfigured and his body will be colored red from those body punches by Haney.

It's easy to tell by just comparing their performance in their previous fight.

Though both fighters have won the fight but it was Haney who made a very dominant win, a unanimous decision win from a challenger, and now he is the current champion. While on Ryan's fight, it wasn't even a championship fight and he struggled a bit against a figther that does not owned a good ranking before the fight.

Ryan does not deserve Haney, but for fans to be entertain, this should happen, however, I'm not expecting Ryan will have a shot at winning.
