Unfortunately, this will not happen for Haney (32-0, 15 KO) soon. Turki already has plans for Lopez, Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis for his IBF and WBA Welterweight title. This matchup will probably be done when boots consider the idea due to its still unrestricted goal of becoming an undisputed champion at 147.

During the press conference on Thursday, Turki mentioned that he is interested in making the reservations between Devin and Ryan Garcia. Given the fact of how bad both fighters fought on the map on May 2, it would be risky for Turki to delay the Garcia-Haney rematch.

Lopez: Too dangerous for Haney?

Let Devin fight against Teofimo next would be a bad idea. Lopez hits too hard and would either turn off Haney or make him look bad as he did Arnold Barboza Jr. and Josh Taylor. Lopez has too much talent for Haney and he would beat him and mess up his plans for a resertion with Ryan.

Teofimo angry Many people with his latest remark during training with his father. He complained that Terence did not want to fight against him and said: “Where’s that (n-word)?” Lopez probably used a racist unbeat to annoy anger Crawford enough to get him against him. This approach does not work.

Crawford focuses on getting the best paid battles that he can remain in his career with the little time, and Teofimo is not nearly a large generous payday so that he is trying to be tried. Canelo Alvarez, David Benavidez, Artur Beterbiev, Dmitry Bivol and Jaron Ennis are the money fights for Crawford.

Haney has to stick to the rematch in Garcia. If that doesn’t happen next, he should take over another old veteran and make sure that he doesn’t move as much as during his collision against Ramirez.
